Alright, so representing the multinational nature of FIRST...

I vote for all my favorite Israeli songs:
Hafinali-Subliminal
Zuz Mitzad Letzad
Toro- Subliminal
Ohevet Otzevet
Tikva

But the chances of that happening are practically nil...

Awww that's not fun. It's one of the only songs that 2 or 3 people from my team actually dance to. :D

The type is a fair mix as far as I can tell, however I would like to see less repetition and a wider span (something for every group there from the youngest greenie to the oldest volunteer). My $.02

It depends. My preference is usually rock, but then comes techno. It more depends on what mood i'm in.:rolleyes:

Most things I've heard at FIRST events are alright. Just make sure you have variety is my suggestion. It gets pretty boring to hear the same things over and over.

Repetitive songs get stuck in my head, too. Hearing "I'm Blue" all the time at Nationals this year was not that fun...

But most popular songs will probably be good!

There’s a lot of great classical & orchestral pieces that would be awesome at a FIRST event:
-Ride of the Valkyries
-William Tell Overture
-1812 Overture
-Sabre Dance

And then there’s all the great soundtracks:

-Duel of the Fates (Star Wars ep. I)
-Wheel of Fortune (Pirates of the Caribean)
-Requiem for a Tower
-(I'll think of more)

Techno (preferably trance and drum-and-bass) is always a winner. So is classic rock and hair-metal.

But this is an Israeli Off-season event, so I’d say play what’s popular over there.
Don't get me wrong, classical music is good, but I cant really imagine classical music at a regional or championship. A metal cover of a classical song would work though.

I think the best two genres that go with FIRST music is techno and metal. I have two songs stuck in my head that would fit a regional pretty well.

"Guitar vs Piano 1.2" by Goukisan
"Still Fly" by The Devil Wears Prada (maybe not, since the majority of the song is screamo) *shrugs* Just a thought

Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture would be pretty epic during a FRC match.

For example, at the Hawaii regional, music that they prefer in Hawaii should be played. It may or may not be different from what we listen to in the continental US, but it gives a "we're not in kansas anymore" type of feeling.

So, for an Israel event, music that is currently listened to in Israel should be played. (As for me, I put Rock, Techno, Hip Hop, Pop, Local, and other- being line dances enjoyed by the people who like dancing on the field.)

TV On The Radio - "Wolf Like Me".
It has the perfect timing for a match. Frenetic for 125 seconds, then goes down tempo for 60 seconds (field reset), and picks up again.
Would have been perfect for this years game. "When the moon is round and full, gonna teach you tricks that will blow your mongrel mind."
The subject matter may not be appropriate if you interpret the lyrics as such. However, it does reflect how FIRST can "infect" you and change your life.
Video available on YouTube.

Tunde Adebimpe rocks like few others.
I would appreciate opinions on this song.

Anything with energy that will excite everyone there is perfect competition music.

First off, Daft Punk should be a must at every regional :D. I can't tell you how many times pulling Robot Rock on my iPod has gotten me pumped for a match. Plus, you know, techno and robots go together.

Otherwise, the music should preferably be intense, energetic, and stuff. That's part of why I think hard rock / metal works better than pop. Stuff like Thunderstruck's more exciting than stuff like (insert most popular music). Some hip-hop works, preferably if it's more "rock" and less hypnotic / same thing over and over again.

Also, I'm in the minority here, but do we really need the Cha-Cha Slide playing during a match? That really does nothing to contribute to a match's excitement, and it really only makes sense in time-outs.
