The Galaxy Song and Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.
Ship of Fools, the Grateful Dead.
‘Though I could not caution all, I still might warn a few,
don’t lend your hand to raise no flag atop no ship of fools.’
Nothing Was Delivered - The Basement Tapes
And, oh, how about this?
Richard Thompson - “Fergus Lang”
Fergus Lang he builds and builds
Yet small is his erection
Fergus has a fine head of hair
When the wind’s in the right direction
Stones - (I can’t get no) Satisfaction
Manu Chao - Clandestino
Molotov - Frijolero
Mongoloid - Devo
The Four Seasons: Big Girls Don’t Cry
My-y girl… Sai-aid Good-bye-yey-yey
Stones - Sympathy For The Devil
Anything by Beethoven or Wagner would probably meet with approval.
We could start with a medley for Hillary and Kaine:
“I’m a Loser” by the Beatles
“Loser” by Beck
“Couldn’t Get It Right” by the Climax Blues Band
“It’s Over” by Roy Orbison
“Didn’t We Almost Have It All” by Whitney Houston
“Orange Crush” by REM
Soviet Connection (GTA IV Theme) by Michael Hunter.
Lampshades on Fire - Modest Mouse
Big Shot - Billy Joel
Mr. Greed - John Fogerty
It’s a Mistake - Men at Work
Help! - The Beatles
I think Trump’s been giving us the answer all along:
You Can’t Always Get What You Want - The Rolling Stones
“It’s a Mistake”-Men at Work
“For What It’s Worth” Buffalo Springfield
“When The Levee Breaks” Led Zeppelin (originally by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie)
“The Last Resort” The Eagles
“Little Tin God” Don Henley
“We Can Be Together” by Jefferson Airplane (contains the refrains “Up against the wall, motherfuckers!” and “Tear down the wall!”)
Alternately, you could use “the House at Pooneil Corners” by the Airplane, which depicts the sudden, apocalyptic destruction of the human race.
Liking the selections so far. My contribution - Leonard Cohen’s “Everybody Knows”:
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
