Note, I put this here rather than in the juke forum because it is essentially a "favorite music" thread, and thus can see input from people who know nothing about jukeboxes.
I am doing an mp3 based refit of an old Rockola 446.
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,30651.0.html
But, what to load on it? It will be set up for 80 artists with 2 songs per artist. Here are some I want to put on it for sure, any other suggestions.

Nice, nice. Artist and specific title suggestions are much better than just artist suggestions.
I only have 80 slots ( 2 songs each), so I won't be duplicating any artists, just 2 songs per artist.
-
Here's a few off the top of my head...
John Mellancamp: Hurt So Good, Jack and Diane, Get A Leg Up, Rain On The Scarecrow
CCR : Proud Mary, Looking Out My Backdoor, Down On The Corner, Bad Moon Rising
Rick Springfield: Jessie's Girl, Don't Talk To Strangers, I've Done Everything For You, Rock of Life
Blondie: Heart of Glass, Call Me
ZZ Top: Legs, Sharp Dressed Man, Double Back, Tush, Sleeping Bag, Cheap Sunglasses
Pearl Jam: Even Flow, Daughter
Chicago: Stay The Night, You're The Inspiration, Hard Habit To Break, Love Me Tomorrow
... and that's all I can think of in a pinch....

ok, drew and paige are playing 'spot the odd one out' so it's my turn:
planet earth, hungry like the wolf- duran duran
back in black, jail break- ac/dc
ace of spades, killed by death- motorhead
the stroke, she goes down- billy squire
ave maria, white rose of athens- nana mouskouri
the message, white lines- grandmaster flash
breaking the law, painkiller- judas priest
private investigations, telegrah road- dire straights
ten points for the first correct answer!
edit: oops, TWO per singer. fixed! still only ten points...
-
Correct to you, or correct in general? Because it's Grandmaster Flash.
-
AND I could go with Billy Squire, as he's the only one on the list to look REMOTELY like you, thereby BANNING him from most jukeboxes. ;)
-
AND AND I could go with Nana Mouskori, and your original song (singular), although some say Lemmy isn't singing in English either. ;D
-
"U Can't Touch This
MC HAMMER
2 Legit 2 Quit"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.... HAHAHA.. *cough* hahaha *cough cough*'
*ehem*
yeah umm, how bout
-Sublime
What I Got
Santeria
-Less Than Jake
Scott Peterson takes it on the chin
Johnny Quest thinks were sellouts
-
lesson now in pommie terminology! the odd one out was nana mouskouri cos she's the only 'naff' performer in the list! just like your joke entries 'aqua' and 'third day' who i havent heard of but the titles sound naff ;D
gg's 'ace of base' get's an honourable mention for 'naffness' :)
well, that's enpugh naffness for one night. i'm just gonna pop some boney m in the 8-track...
-
So I actually should get THIRTY points. Ten for the correct answer (although not the same reasoning) and ten more for each ADDITIONAL correct answer (again, due to my reasoning).
That makes ME the weiner......er.......winner! :-\
Third Day -
Think Travis Tritt meets Lynyrd Skynyrd and they're all "saved". Pretty good listen even if you're not into "that kind" of music.
And the Newsboys - danny, they're from your side of the globe.....heard of 'em?
