My taste isn't that mainstream so I don't know how good it is for giant groups, but here is a couple that i can think of off the top of my head.

Yoshimi vs The Pink Robots - by the Flaming lips
Another one bites the dust - by Queen
Godzilla - Blue Oyster Cult
Reach for the sun-Polyphonic Spree

Re: Competition Music
 

We've left out the obvious - Mr. Roboto!

Kernkraft 500 by Zombie Nation and We Like To Party by The Vengaboys are also FIRST classics.

I can't say I've ever heard it played at a FIRST event, but Ballroom Blitz would be a good one too.

And feel free to mix Shiny Dirt all you want...just let me know how it turns out and give proper credit (PM me if you want to discuss anything about it).

Re: Competition Music
 

3 songs I remember from the 2004 season.

From the Sac. Regional - Hey Mickey
From the Curie Field - DJ Sammy - Heaven (It kinda felt like heaven when our alliance ended up as the 2004 Curie champion)
From the Einstein Field - Darude - Sandstorm (I was actually standing down on the field next to a stack of 4 JBL Sub woofers when they played it - it was scary)

Re: Competition Music
 

You know what a lot of the lists are forgetting?

Ska.

(I know that WUSC has this compilation entitled "SKAndalous: I've Gotcha Covered Vol. 2" that I thoroughly enjoy playing. You haven't lived unless you've heard the version of Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead Or Alive" on that album.)
