Songs that reminds you of FIRST, or robots in general

[Grey_Mann]

The Humans are Dead by Flight of the Concords
Best summarized by one particular line…
“Come on sucker, lick my battery”
'nuff said.

[Short_Stuff]

The other song that we hear all the time at the Utah regional at least is The chicken Dance.

Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond. They played it right after we won Chairman’s at the PNW Championship this past April, and my whole team was just singing along super happily. It was one of those moments where you think, ‘this is why I’m in FIRST,’ and I’ll always remember that moment when I hear the song.

I SECOND THIS

You sir, need to come out to Boston for a Red Sox game. Sweet Caroline is a fan favorite (and a tradition)

Due to that, Sweet Caroline has also become a staple tradition of New England FRC events. It always feels weird when I don’t here it at an event.

I’m pretty sure I’ve only ever heard Chelsea Dagger by the Fratellis at FIRST events.

You might not know the song title, but if you’ve ever been to an FRC regional, you’ve almost certainly heard it:

Darude - Sandstorm

Some of my teammates jokingly consider this song to be our theme, and I have to admit, the lyrics are pretty fitting!

Build the Robots - Dr. Steel

mine is Mr.roboto by styx

I definitely can’t hear “Can’t Hold Us” without thinking of the 118 video.

I’ve had the good fortune to be involved with five regional wins over my years, spread across three different teams. For some reason, the only walk song I remember is “Dynamite”, when 2815 won Palmetto 2011 and capped off the most improbable two-banner-in-two-weeks-from-the-last-pick-of-the-draft season. Still puts a smile on my face.

This one reminds me a lot of build season.

[Roger]

I heard a song the other day, at Walmart or Stop and Shop, that was a robotics song. No clue what the song was or the name.

The Cannery by Kevin Macleod
Very evocative of an extremely busy workshop 5 hours before bag-and-tag when the robot’s manipulator hasn’t been finished.

[Michael_Blake]

During Build Period:

FRANKENSTEIN - The Edgar Winter Group

During Competition Period:

MACHINE GUN - Commodores

I don’t know why- probably because of Zedd’s awesome job- but “I want you NY of know” by Zedd feat. Selena Games-- literally can’t get it out of my head, and it makes me want to go to competiton every time I hear it

Also various songs by Steam Powered Giraffe, namely ‘Mecto Amore’, ‘Electricity is in my Soul’ and ‘Automatonic Electronic Harmonics’. Also ‘Brass Goggles’.
