Two of my favorites:

http://www.youtube.com/user/AudioPad

Both 100% free to use, even commercially. For the second link, take note of the license for any song you download, since some may require you to attribute the song. I would assume a lower third with the name of the song and artist would suffice.

While not 100% reliable, it's close enough for you to use for a live broadcast. How you translate the tweets into data suitable for your broadcasting software is up to you.
