!Some Other Tropers' Parade
* AlbumFiller: "Roll to Me" and "Tell Her This" are both the shortest songs on Twisted.
* BadToTheBone: "Roll to Me" is the quintessential rom-com theme, at least according to Creator/SethMacFarlane.
* GenderBlenderName: Ashely Shore is indeed, a boy.
* MinisculeRocking: "Roll to Me" is only 2:12.
* SillyLoveSongs: "Roll to Me" is one of the biggest examples of this trope.
* WordSaladLyrics: "Nothing Ever Happens".
