I'm not sure... if you can name a specific episode, I'll listen to the song and see if I can answer it. (too many episodes for me to look for it)

I've often heard (in the real world) Spyro Gyra being used as filler for dead air time.

i remember that it was played during an early treehouse of horror episode where flanders and other characters turned into zombies. Bart raised the dead and the Simpsons had to go back to the school to reverse the spell.

Sorry thats the only example i can think of, they play it all the time.

The Spanish Flea?

I know the tune... can't tell you if it has a name or anything though...

It's like when Kent goes crazy and leaves... they show a still of Kent going nuts and play that music.

[silverpig]

No, it's not that one... there's a different one too.
