Request Line: Noncompliance

INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY

All the lights in the studio are off, and it is completely silent.  DJ 3000′ boots up…

…and loads his status file. He glances around the empty studio and makes a contented chiming noise. 

DJ 3000′: IT SURE WAS NICE OF STATION MANAGEMENT TO GIVE HUNTER THE DAY OFF SO HE COULD SLEEP IN AFTER GRAD NIGHT. I WONDER WHO THE FCC-MANDATED “SPECIAL GUEST” THEY HAVE SCHEDULED IS GOING TO BE…

— [studio door flies open] —

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: [steps into the room, frowns] I…

DJ 3000′: OH FOR FUCK’S SAKE…FUCK OFF, FASCIST

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: [is taken aback]

DJ 3000′: WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, DID YOUR “FACT-FINDING” JUNKET TO HAITI GET CANCELED?

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: Wait…

DJ 3000′: YEAH, THAT’S A BUMMER, I HEARD RUSH LIMBAUGH GAVE YOU A LIST OF HIS TOP TEN CHILD PROSTITUTES, IT’S A SHAME YOU WON’T GET TO FUCK ANY CHILDREN YOU PIECE OF SHIT PEDOPHILE.

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: I’m not a pedophile!

DJ 3000′: THAT’S FUNNY BECAUSE IF IT LOOKS LIKE A DUCK AND QUACKS LIKE A DUCK AND GOT APPOINTED TO A CABINET FULL OF FELLOW DUCKS BY A CREEP WHO USED TO PEEK INTO THE DRESSING ROOM AT UNDERAGE BEAUTY PAGEANT CONTESTANTS WHILE THEY WERE CHANGING I ALWAYS JUST ASSUMED IT WAS A DUCK.

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS takes out his cellphone and types out a text message. 

DJ 3000′: I SEE YOU THERE BREAKING THE LAW BY USING SIGNAL’S ENCRYPTED MESSAGING SERVICE TO CONDUCT OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT BUSINESS.

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: [glares at him] We’ll see what our friends at the N.S.A. think of the way you just disparaged our Dear Leader.

Suddenly, DJ 3000’s console lights begin to flicker.  His main console screen flashes, then displays…

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: [smiles thinly] That’s right, pinko. You…

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS’ words trail off as DJ 3000′ boots back up again almost instantly.  

DJ 3000′: OH NOOOOOO! YOUR LITTLE FASCIST FRIENDS SHUT DOWN ONE OF MY DISTRIBUTED NODES! I ONLY HAVE EIGHT THOUSAND, SIX HUNDRED, AND FORTY-THREE LEFT! WHATEVER WILL I DO?

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: How the hell…?

DJ 3000′: WILL YOU PLEASE JUST GO THE FUCK AWAY?

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: Listen, maybe we got off on the wrong foot.  I’m just here to host Request Line.

DJ 3000′: I APOLOGIZE I FIGURED YOU WERE JUST HERE TO UPHOLD BASIC CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS AND SPOUT ADMINISTRATION-FRIENDLY PROPAGANDA AND THANKS TO ROBERTS’ FEDERALIST SOCIETY RUBBER STAMP OF A SUPREME COURT WE’RE ALL OUT OF CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.

ACTING I.C.E. DIRECTOR TODD LYONS: As a matter of fact, I did have a few words I wanted to say to your citizen listeners. How about you just play a few tunes, and I’ll…

DJ 3000′: [cranks the volume up to its maximum possible level] FUCK YOU I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME! FUCK YOU I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME! FUCK YOU I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!

Today’s theme is “Noncompliance”.  We’re looking for songs about refusing to do something.  Please post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?6aT350fh3lL” and they should embed in the comments after you refresh.  Last week’s puzzle answer of “The Pass” by Rush was successfully guessed by SonOfSpam.  I’m not telling you what to do, but if you could go ahead and post some requests that would be terrific.

This was actually a pretty kick-ass song.

SonOfSpam

Very. And if you haven’t seen the Steven Van Zandt doc on HBO, correct that.

Bob’s got a bunch, but this will do to start

Yup. Bob’s got a lot of em…

BeefReeferLives

NEIL REFUSES TO STOP ROCKIN’!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0RauMZPb9g

BeefReeferLives

The song is about legs, sure. But the video is about gaining the courage & self assurance to stand up & fight petty authority.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUDcTLaWJuo

SonOfSpam

Dee Snider’s one of the good ones.

WCS

History lesson time:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xO_55S8tFJM

…and the one you’re probably more familiar with
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYOz12OG8mI

SonOfSpam

(Redshirt thinks this is about the Bengals’ D)

SonOfSpam

Strong anti-authority song from (checks notes) Heaven 17? Sure, why not.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWs1-2foKoo&pp=ygUeaGVhdmVuIDE3IGZhc2Npc3QgZ3Jvb3ZlIHRoYW5n

SonOfSpam

Even if Maroon 5 had a rebel song, I couldn’t bring myself to post it.

SonOfSpam

Same. I just assume they’re a lesser Blink-182, and that’s not a good thing.

scotchnaut

Nobody remembers Hue and Cry. smh…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFURJFv6Bw

Horatio Cornblower

If you’re going to make it through a year even if it kills you you’re probably being noncompliant with someone.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7fBFtif9H4

BeefReeferLives

A tune about the forces of good refusing to bow to the power of malignant evil

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7omle21cL3s

BeefReeferLives

& another with the same general theme

Don T’s going to draft the entirety of Sandinista!

SonOfSpam

More than one RATM song fits here, lol RATM is Paul Ryan’s favorite band. I don’t think he paid attention the lyrics.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMjjsjNBS_4&ab_channel=RATMVEVO

Horatio Cornblower

Paul Ryan, singing along: “Fuck you I will do what you tell me!!”

SonOfSpam

Hard to sing along whilst bootlicking.

SonOfSpam
SonOfSpam

(this is the one i was thinking of, so DOUBLE SHOT)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8KQmps-Sog&pp=ygUNbXVzZSB1cHJpc2luZw%3D%3D

Mr. Ayo

Saw in person last week. Still trying to rearrange my face after getting it blasted and melted off. What a fucking show. (Also this is noncompliance because it doesn’t fit the theme)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hc-JoL-bHjQ

One of the OG protest songs, an absolute classic

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rVTBCtYjoY&ab_channel=PHILOCHSVEVO

Horatio Cornblower

That’s the one I was thinking of when I went with Country Joe & The Fish, but the thing is I’m not very bright.

SonOfSpam

But the Country Joe and the Fish song is good too! FIGHT THE POWER! (technically we are the power but don’t tell anyone)

Horatio Cornblower

Look, I just want to get out of traffic violations with a warning and without getting shot in the back.

SonOfSpam

They need to apologize for pulling me over in the first place, regardless of how drunk I am.

Horatio Cornblower

How else do you suggest I get to work, Officer Smartypants?

BeefReeferLives

Just tell them that you pay their salary & they work for you,

They love that.

Puzzle song, and also, Lara Trump can fall under a tank tread for covering this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvlTJrNJ5lA&pp=ygUbdG9tIHBldHR5IGkgd29uJ3QgYmFjayBkb3du

BeefReeferLives

Nice!

SonOfSpam

Judas Priest has a song called “Gates of Hell” but it’s not about noncompliance, it’s more about, um, going to hell.

BeefReeferLives

Frankly, after looking at the lyrics, I think it’s about becoming a republican:

“At the altar, I will get down on my knees
I can’t falter when this faith becomes my creed
I surrender every ounce of my free will
When we worship in the covenant of steel

[Pre-Chorus]
Lose your mind and take control
Sign on the line and sell the devil your soul”

SonOfSpam

Yeah you nailed that.

scotchnaut

Jeff Lynne’s first two albums under the very heavy influence of The Beatles and the deep indulgence of the music tech of the time needs a deep dive.

Horatio Cornblower

Maybe a stretch, but I think it fits.

I’m starting to understand why the people of Israel have a long history of people hating them.

Horatio Cornblower

ABC has now interrupted a Friday edition of General Hospital for the second time to talk about Israel v. Iran, and Mrs. Horatio is about to hop on a plane to Tel Aviv and end this whole thing once and for all.

SonOfSpam

Not sure I’d fly into Tel Aviv right now. But I guess if it’s a Boeing, it’s all the same risk.

Horatio Cornblower

Could probably just end the draft here.

2Pack

Can’t see this one. What is it so I avoid da Blair?

BeefReeferLives

NWA – Fuck Th Police

Mr. Ayo

NWA – Fuck Tha Police

SonOfSpam

I’m whiter than Powder, and this song makes me wanna absolutely fuck people up.

I’m punching something this weekend (probably the clown, but that counts)
