** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sScHUorw-Hc "N Apostrophe T"]] provides an amusing duet between a cheerful optimist and a grouchy shut-in who loves turning words into negatives by adding "n't" to the end of them.
--->'''Jim Boyd:''' Isn't it a lovely day?\\
'''Lee Chamberlin:''' No! It isn't!\\

* The theme song, which changed every other season, became especially epic with the addition of the "Movin' out in a new way!" introduction for [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNiHpuyefbs Seasons 5 and 6]].[[note]]The video is the season 6 intro, which corrects the effect of Luis Avalos changing from Dr. Dolots to his normal self from a sudden change to the slow fade used for the other performers.[[/note]]

* The animated jazzy take on "Hey Diddle Diddle" performed by a band of cats (including [[SelfDemonstratingSong one on the fiddle]]).
* Music/TomLehrer composed several language-themed songs for the original series, and they're all right up there with his best work.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91BQqdNOUxs "Silent E"]] is a buoyant, upbeat tribute to the wonders that tacking an "E" to the end of a word can provide.
--->Who can turn a ''can'' into a ''cane''?\\
Who can turn a ''pan'' into a ''pane''?\\
It's not too hard to see it's silent "E"

--->You're a secret agent man\\
Who's after the secret plan\\
How do you act so they don't know you're a spy?\\
[[ActingUnnatural Ah-normally]] ''([[NotSoInnocentWhistle whistles]])'' normally ''(whistles again)''\\
Normal... L-Y!

--->'''Jim Boyd:''' Isn't it a lovely day?\\
'''Lee Chamberlin:''' No! It isn't!\\
'''Jim:''' Could you come outside and play?\\
'''Lee:''' No! I couldn't!\\
'''Jim:''' Did you ever take a hike?\\
'''Lee:''' No! I didn't!\\
'''Jim:''' How'd you like to ride my bike?\\
'''Lee:''' Frankly... I wouldn't!\\
'''Jim:''' "Isn't", "couldn't", "didn't", "wouldn't", is that all you can say?\\
'''Lee:''' "Isn't", "couldn't", "didn't", "wouldn't", yes, now ''go away!''\\
The greatest sound to me, it stands for "not", I like it a lot, it's spelled N-apostrophe-T!
* The sing-alongs with BigApplesauce images from TheSeventies that were frequently featured on Friday episodes.
* Rita Moreno sang "Come Listen In On Me" in a [[LargeHamRadio Mel Mounds]] segment. The soulful pop music would not have sounded out of place on the charts in the late 1960s or early 1970s.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGKlRyBGQgo The "Or" Song]], from Season 3, performed by Short Circus members June Angela and Bayn Johnson, which has a very distinct Russian feel to it, possibly being inspired by ''Theatre/FiddlerOnTheRoof''.
