Peanuts references in music?

Apart from the Royal Guardsmen's career and the Dukes of Stratosphear's "You're a Good Man, Albert Brown," are there any other musical references to Peanuts out there?

And no, the Coasters' "Charlie Brown" doesn't count.

(On a side note, the classic A Billy Corgan Christmas.)

no, that's the only one

I thought this was going to be about this article Listening to Schroeder: ‘Peanuts’ Scholars Find Messages in Cartoon’s Scores

That was the inspiration for this thread.

A lackluster Indiana-based new wave band called Rods & Cones recorded a rock version of the dance music from A Charlie Brown Christmas circa 1984.

Game Theory - Red Baron (they also covered Linus and Lucy)

I like to think the Van Pelt were named after Linus and Lucy, but I suspect I read somewhere that they weren't.

(Least helpful post ever)

No need to impede The High and Mighty mystique
That shit would be as ignorant as Jimmy the Greek
Claimin they Godzilla's when they really Godzooki
Got a mill' from Charlie Brown, when I kidnapped Snoopy

...I also like to think that "Red Haired Girl" by Eric's Trip is Peanuts-related, so I guess I just like reading Peanuts references into 90s indie rock on the basis of no evidence whatsoever (and there isn't any)

'Good Grief, Charlie Brown' by Carter USM

Um, Snoop Dogg to thread.

Zeitgeist/Reivers pretty much always played their version of "Linus & Lucy" live--never made it onto one of their records.

you from Austin, ellaguru?

Laszlo Vidovszky - Schroeder's Death.

Did someone write "today you live in me" on pigpen's grave?

Yeah, but he seems to have responded - 'thanx, Ronny'

The Police - Peanuts

doesn't really count as a reference per se, but didn't built to spill do "linus & lucy" live?

Scout Niblett - Linus

The awful 'Cha Cha Slide' has an instruction to "Charlie Brown" - maybe you're supposed to miskick a football and fall on your arse.

Twee-popster Linus of Hollywood got his name because of his resemblance to Linus Van Pelt

Two Man Sound, "Charlie Brown"

And I always thought the Allman Brothers' "Jessica" sounded kind of like the "Peanuts Theme," but it's probably only my imagination:

Liz Phair's singing voice early on = a Peppermint Patty reference (according to Rob Sheffield, at least)

Moved there from Atlanta, was there from 84-87 and moved back, regrettably. Got Zeitgeist together with Danny Beard of dB Recs. back in Atlanta after I saw them play in someone's living room. Hell of a little band, they were.

Does the sample from the start of PM Dawn's "Jesus Wept" album count?

"Things Don't Change" is still one of those perfect songs.

Ayatollah - "Charlie is Brown"

There's always Calvin Johson's Snoopy phone. I think there's also an episode of Soft Focus where he talks about the Peanuts as a model for the underground. Soft Focus w/ Calvin J

Napoleon XIVth's "Let's Cuddle Up In My Security Blanket" may kinda count, depending on whether or not the term "security blanket" had entered the public domain by 1966.
