Right now, as someone not from the US, star spangled banned would ruin the evening more than anything else I could think of. Everyone can recognize it, arguments would follow.
I looked for this to upvote it, but y’all ain’t listed it yet so here goes:
The Drugs Don’t Work by The Verve
Live - Lightning Crashes
People would get into it, but it would definitely kill the vibes before then.
Africa
Hum the Russian national anthem
Was thincking the same thing
Instrumental version of Tequila
Gummi bears theme song
I don’t know how you got to that anwer, this would go hard as balls
I’m killing the “hyped up” vibes and getting everyone to cozy comfyville
I Need a Hero. Can’t live up to the best version, but I’ll try my best!
Bullet by Hollywood undead
Hollywood undead is my go to energy music when I can’t think of anything else. :::
The Mash movie theme song…
Through early morning fog, I see Visions of the things to be The pains that are withheld for me I realize and I can see That suicide is painless It brings on many changes And I can take or leave it if I please The game of life is hard to play I’m gonna lose it anyway The losing card I’ll someday lay So this is all I have to say Suicide is painless (suicide) It brings on many changes (changes) And I can take or leave it if I please The sword of time will pierce our skins It doesn’t hurt when it begins But as it works it’s way on in The pain grows stronger, watch it grin Suicide is painless It brings on many changes And I can take or leave it if I please A brave man once requested me To answer questions that are key “Is it to be or not to be?” And I replied, “Oh, why ask me?” Suicide is painless It brings on many changes And I can take or leave it if I please And you can do the same thing if you please
I repeat the last song.
Or anything from an obscure screamo band.
The Mountain Goats’ “No Children”, but very intensely.
I would be so hyped that someone is playing The Mountain Goats in public I would probably join in.
Depends on the crowd. I did this song once because I was just so excited to see it (any Mountain Goats, really) available.
The crowd absolutely loved it. People at the front row singing along, having a great time. A guy thanked me after. Surreal. Like a “then everybody clapped” moment.
Must have been a bunch of Moral Orel fans, I guess? Or, I suppose after people butchering Bohemian Rhapsody all night, this was the palate cleanser. Who knows.
Windmills of Your Mind - Noel Harrison
Or you can kill the vibes despite the song. Just start sobbing in the middle of Space Jam.
The real issue is finding a song that they might actually have that would sour the mood. GG Alin’s “work” are all easy picks, but nowhere is going to have that available for karaoke (and if they do, run).
Somebody that i used to know
I feel like Desert Sessions - Letters to Mommy was made for this.
