I'm going to start getting songs from this thread. It looks like I have about 1/2 of them already, so I'll post when I have the other 1/2.

I also like Apollo 440 "Can't Stop the Rock"

Cold Roc the Mic and Stadium Parking Lot are also good one from that album.

If anyone could tell me the name of the song and play it it would be great!

Liam Lynch - My United States of Whatever

There is an Indianapolis version of this song that I'll need to hunt down.

Gee, Clark... and you wonder why we wanted you as the DJ? Keep up the good work.

Well if you want weird. I'm the man, i prefer to be thought of as eclectic though.

If you feel like spending about 80 minutes on a single track and you want people to be confused as to whats going on, i definitely think that Karlheinz Stockhausen's “Stimmung” is a great piece.

Continuing with the possibilities of throat and mouth singing, we cant forget the hits from Kongar-ol Ondar (featured in the film Genghis Blues, which is a great documentary), the ever famous throat singer from the center of Asia, Tuva.

If you feel like instilling fear into the souls of the drivers, just pick up any album with Kronos Quartet.

Phillip Glass...nuff said.

Really, any minimalist piece is really good for the nerve builder.

Want to get their brains to fizzle and pop? Check out Otto Von Schirach. Or some work by Venetian Snares.

Enough of that for now. Maybe i will post some music in the other thread thats less....eclectic.

being a s.p.a.m.mer and all...gotta input:

Weird Al Yankovic's song SPAM!!

[Pat Fairbank]

I have got absolutely the cheeziest and un-robotics-ish song ever for you. A couple years ago one of my team's members wanted to sell the idea of an omni-bot to the team, so he made a video of his omni-wheel assembling itself, using some built in function of Inventor. The soundtrack he chose? "Summer Samba", as performed by Stan Getz & Charlie Byrd. It had us in hysterics, but unfortunately the 'bot never got built...

[Scott Ritchie]

How about some "Naked Mole Rap" from Kim Possible

[Chris Fultz]

How about a little Arlo Guthrie "Alices Restaurant Massacree".

[Kyle Love]

Where did you come from- Cotton Eye Joe
Holiday- Green day
Eastbound and Down- Jerry Reed

Love Shack- B-52's (of course!)

I've got most of the songs in this thread......

Country? You've got to be kidding me? You want me to get fired during IRI?

Actually, I was thinking that "Alice's Restaurant" belongs on the other list. It should be played no matter what (got to find some way to instill a little history and culture into these here young'uns). For this list, I would suggest Arlo's "The Motorcycle Song." If they get out of line, that will quiet then up real fast!

The DJ was playing Country at PARC.

[Ian Curtis]

Actually I really enjoy the motorcycle song...

[JackN]

You could play some Warren Zevon if you wanted everyone to be freaked out. Anything by Weird Al is cool to. But it would be funny if you played some hard core gangsta rap because everybody loves rap. The HALO soundtrack would be fun because tons of people play HALO. Finishing off the list would be local bands so that they would get exposure.
