 The music of HOUSEPETS!
Ok, we have just read the comic with the quote from the awesome 'Mrs. Robinson' by Simon and Garfunkel. Can we have on this thread the rest of songs the that have been mentioned in these years? I own a title or two, but I'd really like to collect them all, given that Rick got really good taste in music!  OK, edited title to something more appropriate So far, our favorite soundtrack consists of: PURPLE PEOPLE EATER - Sheb Wooley THE MUSIC OF THE NIGHT( Andrew Lloyd Webber) - MOONLIGHT BAY (Percy Wenrich/Edward Madden) - MOONLIGHT SONATA (Ludwig van Beethoven)WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD - Louis Armstrong Gives the first arc with King its title YOU'RE A MEAN ONE MR. GRINCH SYNDICATED, INC - 'Weird Al' YancovicFLUTE AND HARP CONCERTO IN C, K.299 - Wolfgang Amadeus MozartTICKET TO RIDE - The BeatlesONCE IN A LIFETIME - TALKING HEADSTHE IRISH WASHERWOMAN - Irish JigRED RED WINE - Ub 40MRS. ROBINSON - Simon and GarfunkelLET'S GO CRAZY - PrinceAnd then DEVO and QUEEN deserved their own mentioning If there is anything else, I'll gladly add it to the list!

 Re: The music of RICK!
Well there was mention of Devo awhile back. Y'know, the New Wave group from the 70's and 80's who wore the funny looking hats.

 Re: The music of RICK!
There was a reference to The Beatles in this one-off. The song is "She’s got a ticket to ride”

 Re: The music of RICK!
Well, if we decide to go with ALL the music and songs then i guess this spoof song counts too. I'm sure y'all remember the housepets rendition of "You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch,"from a few years back.

 Re: The music of RICK!
Wow, a good amount of these titles/songs are ones that I have barely heard of, if at all.

 Re: The music of RICK!
Wow, Rick was a fan of Wierd Al Yankovich years before I even came to know about him! I don't know what is that which I'm feeling for Rick right now, But if that isn't loooooove, If that isn't looooo -oo -oo -oove, If that isn't loooooove, I don't know what love is! Same here. Also, I think a certain strip's title was "Red, red wine", wasn't it?

 Re: The music of RICK!
That explains why I had read the name from other sources. Also, the nupcial march appears on the newest page.

 Re: The music of HOUSEPETS!
Hmmm, you may want to add this strip as well, since its title and alt-text come from "Once in a lifetime" by Talking Heads.

 Re: The music of HOUSEPETS!
The arc named "It's a wonderful dog's life" has a few song name it's strips. The title of the arc could be a reference to "Ah, it's a wonderful cat's life"?
