* Music/TheFrontBottoms:
** "Twin Sized Mattress" begins with an obscure and poetic dedication: "This one's for the lions living in the wiry broke-down frames of my friends' bodies."
** "West Virginia" has one after the first verse, but before the rest of the song: "This one goes out to all my friends in [[TitleDrop West Virginia]]". The song (a BreakupSong) otherwise has nothing to do with West Virginia; supposedly the line references a particularly good show the band had in that state.
