    I told these kids at school I'd make a mixed cd for a end of the semester party. They want something with adrenaline. So far all I got is:

    Kick Out The Jams -MC5
    Debaser -The Pixies
    Surrender -Cheap trick


    I was thinking about putting BOB- Outkast on it but...it's so played out.

    Anybody have any suggestions? I'd appreciate it.

    How old are the kids?

    I don't know, if they're pre-teen maybe Pink - Get the Party Started, or Taylor Dayne - Supermodel? Maybe something by Linkin Park?

    If you want to have a little fun, you could play "I'm Turning Japanese" by the Vapors and see if anyone gets it.

    "She sells Sanctuary" by the Cult is a fast, stimulating track.....

    "For You" by Staind - excellent song

    Countless linkin park stuff !!!!

    Let's Get It Started - The Black Eye Peas

    Drop It Like It's Hot - Snoop with Pharell

    Pieces of Me - Ashlee Simpson

    One Thing - Eleven Fingers

    Most of these are on the CD "Now That's What I Call Music 17" It's really great, and has a number of different musical styles.

    Good luck, and party on, dude

    Happyout - Embarrassed that I said party on dude class

    OK, most of this is a bit older than they're likely used to, but:

    The Boys From County Hell by the Pogues, off the Red Roses For Me disc

    Let it Whip by the Dazz Band

    El Matador by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs

    Bring Me Some Water and I Want You off Melissa Etheridge's self-titled debut album

    Rip Her to Shreds by Blondie

    I Want a Lover by The Pet Shop Boys

    Kiss Them For Me by Siouxzee and the Banshees

    After the Flesh by My Life With The Thrill Kill Cult

    D.M.S.R. by Prince

    I hope these kids appreciate your efforts.

    Thanks!

    Insomniac- "I hope these kids appreciate your efforts."

    I doubt it but I said I'd do it anyway. I probably shouldn't refer to them as kids--seeing as how I'm only a couple years older than most of them....but they're snotty little brats.

    Thanks again and if you guys think of any other songs let me know, I got a couple days.
