Barry: Top 5 songs about death. A Laura's Dad tribute list, okay? Okay. Leader of the Pack. The guy beefs it on his motorcycle and dies, right? Dead Man's Curve. Jan & Dean. Dick: Do you know that right after they recorded that song Jan himself crashed his car... Barry: It was Dean you idiot... Rob: It was Jan. It was a long time after the song. Barry: Okay, whatever. Tell Laura I Love Her. That would bring the house down - Laura's Mom could sing it. You know what I'd want? One Step Beyond by Madness. And, uh, You Can't Always Get What You Want. Dick: No. Immediate disqualification because of its involvement with The Big Chill. Barry: Oh God. You're right! Dick: Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald - Gordon Lightfoot. Barry: You bastard! That's so good - that should have been mine... The night Laura's daddy died. Sha na na na na na na na na! Brother what a night it really was. Mother what a night it really... angina's tough! Glory be!

Laura: I'm too tired not to be with you. Rob: What, so if you had a bit more energy we'd stay split up, but things being as they are, with you being wiped out and all, you want to get back together? Is that it? Laura: Yeah.

Rob: Liking both Marvin Gaye and Art Garfunkel is like supporting both the Israelis and the Palestinians. Laura: No, it's really not, Rob. You know why? Because Marvin Gaye and Art Garfunkel make pop records. Rob: Made! Made! Marvin Gaye is dead. His father shot him!

Customer: Hi, do you have the song "I Just Called To Say I Love You?" It's for my daughter's birthday. Barry: Yea we have it. Customer: Great great... Well, can I have it? Barry: No, you can't. Customer: Why not?! Barry: Because it's sentimental tacky crap that's why. Do we look like a store that sells "I Just Called to Say I Love You"? Go to the mall! Customer: What's your problem?! Barry: Do you even know your daughter? There's no way she likes that song! Oh oh oh wait! Is she in a coma? Customer: Oh, okay buddy. I didn't know it was Pick on the Middle-Aged Square Guy Day. My apologies. I'll be on my way. Barry: [sarcastically] Buh-bye! Customer: Screw you!
