Okay guys, while I applaud the entrepreneurial (sp?) spirit of the young men down the street, while they wash cars for folks they keep their stereos going.
Surprise of all surprises, they never play a lovely concerto or opera. They play ghetto "music". All you can hear is bass and the occasional obscenity.
Because I am an old, um, severely un-tanned woman, I plan to play music as I wash the minivan, weed the flowerbed, walk to the mailbox, whatever...whenever they are playing their music. That's right folks - a regular Battle of the Bands!
Keeping in mind they would love much of the very "music" we hate...I'd like your suggestions to add to my boom box sitting on the front porch. Opera, Polka, what do you suggest? And to keep them interested I'll need a good variety.
Because these concerts will end when they realize they need to turn theirs down (and they will, I think. They don't seem to be bad kids...just kids) the selections will need to be cheap and easily obtained.

Country singers (OLD) sound like they are rapping or scatting when they do what is called Effin (imagine a hillbilly version of a human beatbox).

“What’s New, Pussycat?” by Tom Jones. Even better, play the Chipmunks' version.

How about playing an instrumental version of Pop Goes The Weasel? Everyone will wonder when the Ice Cream truck is coming through...

Give it up. These guys are probably running pre-amps that are more powerful than any system you own, and they’re just feeding that signal to an amp that can be up to 4,000 watts. You’re destined to lose any battle of the sound systems

You want to know the funniest thing? I hadn’t heard of DC talk till about three weeks ago (I know, I know... sad) , but what I’ve heard I’ve like :D. My friends were talking about some kind of new tour they were on. I think they got tickets even

Get their album "Jesus Freak".
You won't be disappointed.
And if you want to get even with the roommate, try getting the album Woven Cord by Iona.
Strong Christian Celtic Progressive; if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
Cheers!

That’s what I’m listening to right now. I’ll take that on advice for my roommate
If you want a place to listen to the music like I am (it’s legal):

I’m about to sit through the whole album I hope depends on whether I write my essay with them on the background. Thanks for the advice :D, I don’t think would have checked them out other wise
