Baby shark

Then I can still torture my enemies

[-] TheColonel@reddthat.com 8 points 3 weeks ago

Big “you’re trapped in here with me” energy

[-] ValiantDust@feddit.org 11 points 3 weeks ago

Are other people allowed to hear our song when we play it? If so, I choose Macarena and then sell my attendance at parties and weddings and so on.

Big business brain

Is it illegal for me to hear any other person's song? Can we co-ordinate? I think with the 8 billion of us we have around we might actually get close to covering the full library of human songs as long as none of us repeats. In that case then I don't really care which one, I'm happy to be just assigned one to make none of us doubles up. Another question would be how well the human birth rate can keep up with number of new songs people come up with. If we can average out the rate of growth can we just assign any given new song to a registry so we don't exceed that average and that mete out a new entry from the backlog in the registry to each person as they're born? Maybe if we can assign a song to each person that has ever lived or at least who's life was recorded we can add some resilience to account for unexpected low birth yields or something. I'm assuming a song is still "legal" after its person has died. If not it'll be a bit more complicated.

Just break the law. You've not stated what the sentence is and it doesn't sound very enforceable

When has something being illegal stopped anything?

🏴‍☠️

(Pink Floyd - either Time or Another Brick In The Wall)

[-] Evkob@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick. I've always loved this song, it has a mix of different styles, from flute-forward chill sections to more classic rock sounding parts.

Oh and it's over 43 minutes long. Before anyone says "oh but there's part 1 and part 2", this was a limitation of vinyl and not the artistic intent behind the piece. It's one song, fight me.

Killing in the Name - Rage Against The Machine

And, then continue to listen whatever I want.

[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

John Cage - 4'33"

I think if I had only one song, I'd pretty quickly come to hate it. Although props to the commenter who said baby shark. Torture your enemies and become loved by children.

Suuuuuch a good track. I instantly went to porcupine tree as well when I read the prompt.

Daughters of Darkness, by Halestorm.

Fuck yeah... Yo_oY

[-] beerclue@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Take five, Brubeck.

[-] Montagge@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 weeks ago

Metallica One

[-] Glytch@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

"I'm not a good Person" by Pat the Bunny

[-] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

If it'd never get old,

The Cranberries - Zombie

However, for a track that wouldn't get old for me very quickly

VØJ, Narvent - Memory Reboot

[-] knocks@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

A really hard question, id have to go with a classic. Elton John's Rocket Man.

[-] jewbacca117@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Caramelldansen. On a loop. Full volume.

[-] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 3 points 3 weeks ago
[-] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons. Because I want to make sure it lasts.

Alternatively, Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, as that's technically one song.

[-] M154nthr0p3@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Fingerbib by Aphex Twin or AFX. On repeat forever.

[-] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

The 11 minute version of heard it through the grapevine cover by ccr where they just jam the hell out for the last half of the song

Or any instrumental by northlane. I like his vocals too but the instrumental just feels so good

Edit: Or maybe for longevity go with somrthing like the blue danube waltz or requiem in d minor

[-] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Devil Doll's 1989 "The Girl Who Was... Death" album, which is technically one very long track.

[-] ray1992xd@feddit.nl 2 points 2 weeks ago

We Are The Others by Delain

[-] Achyu@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 weeks ago

Some mashup song that combines 5-6 songs

[-] NichtElias@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

Either Till It's Over or Once Again by Tristam

[-] apotheotic@beehaw.org 2 points 3 weeks ago

Aurora - Different Kind of Human

Mostly because it resonates so strongly with me, lyrically, and the song itself is so beautiful and timeless

[-] ryannathans@aussie.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago
[-] hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Phoria - saving us a riot

My comfort song :)

Also it's very relaxing and I think that's a good thing for my peers lol.

[-] x00z@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago
[-] iii@mander.xyz 1 points 3 weeks ago

That's certainly something. Your song will also play at your funeral :)

[-] x00z@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I see.

I'll have to make arrangements so people know the red and blue dresscode is required too.

[-] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 2 points 3 weeks ago

The first time ever I saw your face. Johnny Cash version.

[-] variaatio@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 weeks ago

No bravery by James Blunt, so I can play it at endless loop at world leaders.

[-] keepee@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Smashing Pumpkins - Soma

[-] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Against me - The ocean.

The intense longing and driving song that is about becoming who you are hits extra hard when you know the singer is trans and singing about her true self.

Peter Gabriel- In Your Eyes

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 2 points 3 weeks ago

Tori Amos - Yes, Anastasia

[-] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Used to have a good buddy who was really into tori amos and could play a lot of her songs. Hope hes doing alright.

[-] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago
