    So my kickball team is having people chose a song to be played when they go up to bat. I don't want to do a typical song like "Eye of the Tiger" or the Karate Kid theme song. I like hip-hop, so I was thinking of something along the lines of:

    "Rock Star" - N.E.R.D.
    "Superstar" - Lupe Fiasco
    "Champion" - Kanye

    Any other suggestions?

    Also, I need a list of really bad embarassing songs to play for people that don't send me their song choice. I'm thinking:

    "Loser" - Beck
    "Mmmbop" - Hanson
    Anything by New Kids

    Others?

    Something by DMX for you.

    Go hardcore on the people that don't chose for themselves: Show tunes.

    When I worked the sound board in the Northwoods league I picked the biggest guy from the opponents and his walk up song was Dancing Queen. That got some laughs.

    Can't remember who sang "I touch myself," but that would be a pretty funny one.

    Motley Crue has a new song out called "************ of the Year". I usually listen to it on the way to the gym or whenever I need to get a quick hype.

    DaVinyls I think.

    How about Stranglehold? Tell them you are not going into the batters box until song is over.

    Cool - "Wave of Mutliation" by The Pixies. I like the slow version best, but the fast one is good too.

    Embarassing - "Muskrat Love" by The Captain & Tennile.

    I know, you probably want more up tempo songs.

    But I'll submit these.

    You're welcome.

    You want embarassment, break out with Leslie Gore's "Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows".

    P.S. Zack De La Rocha's new band, "One Day as a Lion," has some great stuff for edgy "at-bat" music.
