Which song will you introduce to an Alien

[EmoBorg]

Let say you are kidnapped a la Guardians of the Galaxy style and you meet all types of sapien alien lifeforms out there in space. If an alien wants to listen to a piece of music from Earth, what music from your Phone, which you were carrying when you were kidnapped, would you pick for the alien to listen to.

I would pick John Mayer Rendition of Michael Jackson's Human Nature.

Thanks a lot; now we have to deal with an Eradication Fleet. Sigh. Man the silos...



I, however, will pick humankind's objectively finest song, if one can quite call it that, Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.


... There, I just saved all our asses. You're welcome.

 

[Melakon]

Anything by Weird Al Yankovic, though my landline won't reach that far.

 

[HIjol]

Elton John, "Rocket Man"

David Bowie, "Space Oddity"

The Imperial March?!

I'd start with instrumental classical music, fade to instrumental rock, and then fade to instrumental dubstep before sampling from the rest of the genres (classic to modern rock, country, rap, blues, tribal, opera, etc.). My traveling music collection will give all of earth a good name... well, I do have some Mighty Python, The Flight of the Concords, and Rocky Horror Picture Show songs so I'll probably get put down.

 

[Santaman]

Bah, I'd start with metal, I mean come on, a few death growls and they'd be eating out of my hand.

Pain -Leave me alone.

Now that will do.

I change my answer to Shake It Off by Taylor Swift

Silly question. "All along the watchtower" obviously.

They already know that one. At least, SOME of them do.

[Amaris]

"Smile Smile Smile" as arranged by Daniel Ingram, sung by Pinkie Pie.

You're damned right: I'm bringing them pony, and by the time we're done singing, we're all going to be a little hoarse.

Yes. Yes, this. We'll do this.

Well, between the Swift and the ponies, I for one welcome the incoming Eradicator Fleet.
