"Hey Ogie, buy you a soda after the game?"


"Rock the Boat" wasn't that by the Hughes Corporation? I never heard of anything happening to them. But then again they were not the biggest act.

Coach what are you guys doing? Hansons the machine took my quarter we are trying to get it back. Owns Owns who owns de team as teh french goalie would say. Ah what a great movie I think I need to pull that one out and watch it tomorrow night.

"Rock the Boat" was by Aaliya, who died in a plane crash after shooting the video for that song.

I agree with the other posters, all songs are by artists who died in plane crashes.
