If you were to run for president.
« on: 09 Dec 2006, 08:44 »
What would your campaign song be?

Mine would be Radiohead - Electioneering, or Karma Police

Electioneering has the nice distortion on the guitars though....Karma police would probably be too forward.

The 1812 overature was already used, as Bush's unpublicised campaign song. If only we had known this before the retards in the Christian Right Elected (*coughappointedcough*) him the first time.

Eminem - Without Me :D nah, maybe as a parody

Fatboy Slim - Joker - nah, music is too sweet

Metallica - Ecstasy of Gold - OK, this theme really should fit.

If I were running for US President I would use Born in the USA for the irony.

If I recall correctly, Reagan already tried to do that, except not for the irony.

Anyway, I have no clue what my campaign song would be.  Some GY!BE maybe.

I was going to use that joke. :P

Q and Not U - X-Polination

It would add some energy to my campaign, and it has the flexibility of having unintelligible lyrics as well as the opportunity for me to start convulsing rythmically while playing the keyboards during a rally. People would be like "damn, that guy really doesn't give a shit...and where the fuck did he get that flutist?"

That would be a pretty awesome campaign song.

I think it would be funny to go with "Super Rad!" or "Look at Me (I'm a Winner!)" by The Aquabats.

It could backfire, but using Dylan's 'Masters of War' would be a pretty blatant, angry attack on Bush and the neo-cons, which could get me some votes or alot of backlash.. but it would be pretty fun.

MCR's 'Welcome to the Black Parade' would be great... 'why did you choose to run for president?' 'TO BE THE SAVIOUR OF THE BROKEN, THE BEATEN AND THE DAMNED' 'i... see'

or Springsteen. everyone loves Springsteen. I love Springsteen very much
