** PJ sent [=PaRappa=] to Hell in the JP/EU version [[labelnote:Explanation]]In [=PaRappa=]'s story mode, the pre-Stage 6 cutscene ends with [=PaRappa=] and PJ playing guiros according to PJ's idea of "rock 'n' roll"; PJ says that [=PaRappa=] played it funny, and after the scene ends it immediately cuts to Stage 6, which takes place in Hell (only in the JP/EU versions; it's changed to an island in the US version). Because of this, it's common to joke that PJ killed [=PaRappa=] (or sent him to Hell via other means) [[DisproportionateRetribution just because he wasn't playing right]].[[/labelnote]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2zpR5qA18A "Power Off! Power On!"]] is a fun hard rock tune that will have you, in the song's own words, "rocking to the beat of the sun".
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uWv8PBovo4 "Got to Move!"]] delivers with an uptempo and energetic sound and an amazing vocal performance from Katy Kat. It feels like a great release after all you've experienced and a sign of Lammy's growth throughout the story.
** The credits theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26g8atIoG1A "Keep Your Head Up!"]], is an infectiously catchy fusion of ska punk and orchestral score about rolling with the punches no matter what life throws at you (in this case, a relationship gone wrong).
** The instrumentals can be just as good as the vocal tracks. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHfBDtSKpp0 "Theme of Rammy"]] perfectly fits its namesake character with its edgy and somewhat mischevious tone. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KSbDVploNw The MilkCan "Make It Sweet" version]] makes it even better by extending it and adding some awesomely heavy guitar solos after the initial part.

The video ended up making the rounds on Twitter in mid-2019 by Lammy fans who were rallying to have her game be remastered or get a sequel.

* SelfFanservice: Bizarrely enough, Lammy is often treated as a SexGoddess in fanart, being a popular anxiety-ridden subject. To be fair, though, quite a few characters in-universe strongly imply having crushes on her during the canonical game too, most notably [[HoYay Katy and Ma-San]], her fellow [[FakeBand Milkcan trio]] members.

I think this was put down for Pa Rappa the Rapper 1 as there is no sunset scene in Um Jammer Lammy, certainly not for the Chuck Beaver cutscene.


** There's something about the sunset scene Stage 5's cutscene that's very spooky and unsettling... The color error and animation could be suspect.
