In 7.01 Lessons, Halfrek says of the singing couple:
“Oh look at them with the shiny happiness”.
‘Shiny happy people’ was an R.E.M song from their album Out of Time.
The title of the season four Angel episode 4.18 Shiny Happy People is also a reference to this song. The lyrics include the line, “Everyone around love them, love them” which echoes Jasmine’s message of peace.
In 4.10 Awakening, Cordelia says the line:
“Drop the Hallmark crap. That might placate the Shiny Happies over there but I’m working with a little more investment.”
