  • "(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song" is a #1 hit from B. J. Thomas. The song is sung by Miss Piggy as the UK Spot on episode 112 of The Muppet Show. Rowlf accompanies her on piano and joins in on the chorus, along with Fozzie, George the Janitor, Mildred Huxtetter, Scooter, Janice, Hilda and Gonzo. At the end of the song, Miss Piggy collapses onto Rowlf's shoulder, crying about missing Kermit, while Rowlf wipes imaginary tears out of his eyes.

  • "(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song" is an American country and pop song made famous by B.J. Thomas which Hyde listened to in Season 5 after Jackie dumped him. Bowing at #99 on the Hot 100 on 1 February 1975, the song became Thomas' second number-one single on 26 April 1975.

It also went number one on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart. Although he would not have any major country hits for another eight years, "Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song" — as the song is sometimes referred to — paved the way for Thomas' future success as a mainstream artist in that genre. In 1976, it was performed by the Muppets on the Muppet Show. In 1979 Larry Butler produced a cover version by Kenny Rogers and Dottie West for their album Classics. Alvin and the Chipmunks and Butler covered the song for the 1981 album Urban Chipmunk. "(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song" was certified gold for sales of one million units by the Recording Industry Association of America.
