Songs you don’t want to be overheard loudly singing with headphones on in the airport security line: 1. Janie’s Got a Gun 2. The Ballad of D.B. Cooper 3. “What Happens Now?” by Porcupine Tree 4. “Fire and Rain” (especially that line about "flying machines in pieces on the ground) 5. Hit The Plane Down 6. 30KFT by Assemblage 23 (“The captain’s just informed us that the plane is going down/I’m calling one last time to say I love you.”) 7. “Terrorism,” XTC 8. Rock the Casbah 9. Crash and Burn 10. Don’t Fear the Reaper 11. “Roxanne” by the Police, especially if it’s sung by Eddie Murphy, I can’t believe this hadn’t been played yet. ---
