Oh, and Vengaboys is a great pick! In particular, "We Like To Party","Boom Boom Boom" and "Up and Down"

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

I hear us rednecks in Indiana don't care for too much Technomusic and they are tempted to bring their trusty shootin' rifles if we do hear the Techno :p



Seriously guys, lets try to balance the music...nobody wants an all Techno weekend.

My suggestions:

• LO FIDELITY ALLSTARS - Battleflag (Ill get you the edited version)
• Stabbing Westward- Save Yourself (Same thing again w/ edited version)
• Filter- Hey Man Nice Shot
• Guns'N'Roses- Paradise City
• Guns'N'Roses- Welcome to the Jungle
• Jane's Addiction- Just Because
• Tommy Tutone- 867-5309(Jenny) - I agree with Paul!
• Morris Day & The Time - Jungle Love
• U2 -Elevation (maybe as award music...works nice)
• U2- Desire
• Vanilla Ice- Ninja Rap :p (my personal favorite :p)

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

No offense to anyone, but Coldplay doesn't really sound like something that people could (for lack of a better word) energize themselves too. Their songs are more like lullabies, but that too is another story.

Here's my list of People/Bands we should play

Genesis
ACDC
The Eagles
Bruce Springstein
Village People (Uber Techno versions ;))
Meatloaf
Jimmy Buffet

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

If it wasn't originally available on 8-track then we ain't playin it.

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

Preferably by The Who, along with some other songs of theirs:
Who Are You
Pinball Wizard
Baba O'Riley
We Won't Get Fooled Again

Also,
CCR (they have tons of good ones)
REM - End of the World as we know it
American Pie
and...GOB - Paint it Black

maybe more later...

-Diobsidian

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

that has to be the funniest song to watch people try to sing (i'm no better at it)

"six o'clock. tv something blada yada yada yada (repeat until) it's the end of the world as we know it. it's..."

p.s. my 229th post...division by zero

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

I think anything funky is awesome, stuff from the 70s is where its at kick out some stevie wonder, bobby byrd, james brown, george clinton and stuff from that time and you will get the party rokin, people also like really energetic swing music like from big bad voodoo daddy, cherry poppin daddies and others...

Now on to some other more specific songs...

Beck - Where It's at, devils haircut, tropicallia, new pollution

Prefuse 73 - The End of Biters-International

Jurassic 5 - Whats Golden, Hey

B52's - Rock Lobster

Hrvatski - Vatstep DSP

Cylob - cut the midrange drop the bass

Gorrilaz - Clint Eastwood, 19-200 (theres a remixed one thats faster and really fun)

Grand Master Flash - The Message

ok go - get over it

The Soft Pink Truth - PromoFunk

I dont feel like typing anymore so this will be enough, i have all of them so PM me if you want stuff

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

Good ones, Andrew. Gotta love the old dance music like Rock Lobster. My kids are on a Beastie Boys kick, with their favorite being "Hey Ladies!"

I am a proud dad - my kids STILL don't know who Brittney Spears or Backstreet Boys are. And, just today, my 2-year-old was humming "We Will Rock You" by Queen.

As for what to play at IRI, just keep things mixed up (hard rock, dance, old stuff, techno, r&b, whatever) and keep 'em clean.

Re: 2004 IRI Music Thread
 

Guys,

Mix it up all you want, but come finals ... we need to keep it loud and jammin'!

The elimination rounds need to have songs that make you want to bang your head into a wall!

Oh, and of course, during the eliminations we will need to be dancing on the field during "robot cool off time."
