Changed line(s) 6,32 (click to see context) from:
* {{All Girls Want Bad Boys}}: Angie towards Rocco; Celeste towards Billy AND Rocco; pretty much every girl except Mrs. Lo'Bianco towards Rocco. [[spoiler: One of the Ettas even winds up with Ed Vendetta at the end.]]
* {{As Long As it Sounds Foreign}}: Rocco's epic opera-styled song "Quando Scungilli" runs on this trope and {{Gratuitous Foreign Language}}. He even {{Lampshades}} this when he asks Angie if she speaks Italian, after she says no he starts singing. Its Awesome.
* {{Anti Love Song}}: Angie sings a song called "Someone that I Hate." Its Angie lamenting about how she can't stop loving Rocco, even though he's a jerk. So it could also count as an attempted {{Breakup Song}}
* {{Cannot Spit It Out}}: Vinnie can't tell Angie he loves her until he is dressed up as Rocco, so of course she thinks that means Rocco has changed...
* {{The Casanova}}: Rocco is so over the top he's done it with almost every girl in town, a bunch of female celebrities of the 50s, and even Eleanor Roosevelt!
* {{Clark Kenting}}: Vinnie as Rocco and [[spoiler: Rocco as Lou. Even though his disguise is even worse, he acts like a complete nerd and even changes his voice, unless he's talking to girls, then he tries to act like himself, but his disguise makes him seem like just a lame {{The Leisure Suit Larry}} instead.]]
* {{Crowd Song}}: Many, including such gems as Quando Scungilli, The Floor of the Deli, and of course Once Upon a Time in New Jersey.
* {{Ear Worm}}: Basically the entire soundtrack.
* {{Epic Song}}: "On the Floor of the Deli" and "Quando Scungilli"
* {{Final Love Duet}}: "Always Only You," [[spoiler: but it might count as a {{subversion}} at first since Angie and Vinnie sing it while he is dresses as Rooco. Happens for real in the Reprise, once Angie realizes that Vinnie is the right guy for her.]]
* {{Hitman with a Heart}}: [[spoiler: Ed Vendetta, the hitman Billy hires to take out Rocco seems to be one. He finds happy endings filled with love to be beautiful and winds up teaching second grade.]]
* {{Kavorka Man}}: Rocco is at least a borderline example since he gets more women than seems humanly possible, but all he has at his disposal are some run of the mill pick-up lines and a bad attitude. [[spoiler: Subverted because at the end, ALL the women in the show turn him down at once]].
* {{Meaningful Name}}: Ed Vendetta - "Revenge Specialist"
* {{Medium Awareness}}: There are definite touches of this. The Act Two opener has the narrator, followed by the the entire cast come on stage and sing to the audience with the memorable line, "come right in/ take your seats/ put away your crinkly paper treats." In "On the Floor of the Deli," the cast follows Vinnie [[spoiler: as he goes back to the deli. Everyone following him is narrating that he is being followed by Billy and Ed, who are ready to kill him, thinking he is Rocco.]]
* {{Pair the Spares}}: Buddy and Tony end up with two of the Ettas. [[spoiler: The last one winds up with Ed Vendetta.]]
* {{The Paolo}}: Rocco
* {{Paper Thin Disguise}}: Two examples. First, everyone in town believes Vinnie to be Rocco just because he gelled his hair and is wearing a leather jacket, although Vinnie thinks his mom could potentially see through it. The second is [[spoiler: Rocco who instead of leaving town to hide winds up disguised as "Lou" the new guy at the deli.]] His disguise seems to consist of glasses and a tie.
* {{Prince Charmless}}: Rocco, again
* [[spoiler: {{Relationship Upgrade}}]]: [[spoiler: Vinnie and Angie]]
* {{Single Woman Seeks Good Man}}: Angie
* {{Tenor Boy}}: Vinnie
* {{Those Two Guys}}: Buddy and Tony, Rocco's sidekicks. They're almost as interchangeable as Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Then, there's Etta, Conchetta, and Loretta, whose main purpose seems to be being in love with Rocco and to have their extreme ditziness be in contrast to Angie.
* {{Unlucky Childhood friend}}: Vinnie towards Angie [[spoiler: at least at first.]]
* [[spoiler: {{Victorious Childhood Friend}}]]: [[spoiler: Vinnie and Angie at the end.]]
