What other Music would make the Martians/ heads explode?


Let's have fun with this.

"The Chicken Dance" ...works as a perfect complement to Slim Whitman, don't ya think?



And now for something completely different...

How would the Martian re-act to listening to former Vice President Al Gore's voice for an hour or so?

Would their heads explode, or would they simply fall into a very deep sleep?

Boy band music, no question

Here are a few suggestions, followed each time by a different reason for a Martian's head to explode.

- The original movie soundtrack from 'Earth vs. the Flying Saucers', because my B-series Martians are better than YOUR B-Series Martians !
- Willy Lamothe's 'Chérie Je t'aime plus que mon cheval' (French-speaking western music from Quebec) because it is too weird and too familiar at the same time
- John Coltrane's 'A Love Supreme' because the Martians are unspeakably bad, and so they cannot stand the very contact with such astonishing, eerie beauty
- the crazy glissando at the end of Bela Bartok's 'Third String Quartet' because long before all their electronic stuff it was really a crazy sound effect
- Michelle Shocked's 'The N. & M. Don't Stop Here Anymore' because it is so sad !

You think the harmonics from Smashing Pumpkins' "Zero" Would work?

"Puberty Love" from Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.
And a Megadeth song repelled an alien fleet in an episode of Duck Dodgers.

Massimo Girotti's interpolation of the greatest hits of Lawrence Welk as filtered through an echo chamber transmogrified from an enema bag or anything sung by Lady Gag Me.

Sacred cows make delicious hamburgers.

Frankie Valli And the Four Seasons.

I'm guessing that the Martians wouldn't like anything by Kanye West.

No, wait a minute. That's me who dislikes anything by Kanye West.

reply

Anything by Lady GaGa, for sure.

Listening to her makes MY brain want to explode.

I have a message for Germany...

The hideous folkie song "California Lady" from the gloriously ghastly creature feature abortion "Track of the Moonbeast."

"We're all part Shatner/And part James Dean/Part Warren Oates/And Steven McQueen"

reply

Jeannette McDonald.

Makes Earthlings' heads explode, too.

reply

'Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini', with center offset to sound very distorted, cycling slow & fast.
This was used by the East Germans in 'One, Two, Three' to break Horst Buchholz.

reply

Justin Bieber. He makes me wanna blow my own head off.

Odd you mention her, since the song "Indian Love Call" was first sung to her by Nelson Eddy in "Rose-Marie".

I doubt she would be offended, seems she never missed an episode of "The Addams Family" as her sister Blossom Rock played the Grand-Mama. Must have had a sense of humor for that.

I expect Slim Whitman cried all the way to the bank.

Other songs to do this deed would have to include "Muskrat Love" and "Johnny Angel", anything by the Bee Gees, or Henry Gross (i.e. Shannon is Gone).
