Quote from Barry in We Didn't Start the Fire
Barry: You're no Piano Man.
Adam: Tell that to Jackie, who strongly urged my hot bod to do the talent show.
Barry: Come on! What upside-down world are we living in here? How do you have a girlfriend and confidence and a modest amount of popularity?
Adam: Hello! Pops! He's helped me with all of it. He's even the one who gave me the idea to serenade Jackie, and like always, he was right.
Barry: Wait, you take love advice from our old grandpa who uses an entire tin of cream cheese on one bagel?

Quote from Adam
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Ever since I was a kid, Billy Joel was my musical idol. I loved every album and video, but he blew my mind when he released a song like no other We didn't start the fire "We Didn't Start the Fire" was an instant classic. The moment I heard it, I was obsessed.
