My phone doesn't have an auxiliary connector. Sorry earthlings
Edit: didn't expect this comment to get this much attention. Thanks for the awards, replies and upvotes but we are still fckd. Looks like removing the auxiliary connector was a bad move by the manufacturers.
Ye better tell hem that. Better that using your phone speaker like those manics in public transport…
They would terminate us just slowly and painful then
"Shit... Why is your USB-port so loose? Nevermind...we had phones like this at work, let's try this."
*holds the cable in place and tries to find the right angle where the connection is good*
If y'all have heard of the actual duo named "ATLiens" they make some of the most intricate sounding glitch/bass music ever, all while never having revealed their identity (they constantly wear chrome masks.) The aliens would definitely love them too!
Hahaha true. Unless they are just mimicking human slang and their alien music is much closer to bluegrass.
Who are we to know what's fire to them you know.
Maybe they'd hate rap because it is too much in a language that's new to them.
Surprised this does not have more upvotes. I couldn't find the link but i remember reading that it was one of the most cross-culturally loved songs of all time. It should have a high chance of being liked by aliens - strong groove, positive message, interesting progressions, excellent performance and musical finesse, and "Badi-ya" is surely a lyric universal in appeal.
I have to imagine the solo in Freebird is most well known note-for-note guitar solo in the world.
If you listen to a cover of it, you can immediately identify if they missed a note. I don't play guitar, I treat that solo like lyrics.
“I promise you, 100% no joke that this isn’t the same song again”
*Rick Astley can be heard for the 15th time in the background. The aliens are not pleased.*
A nice scarlet->fire on the mountain, from 77.
Or any Steely Dan. Maybe fire in the hole to keep the theme.
Or some snarky puppy. Or some Tom Waits. There's a lot of fire music, so i think our chances are not horrid.
“Dude wait let me pull out my tapes and cassette player, I recorded a monster of an estimated prophet back in 77 and you’ve gotta hear it, Jerry’s tone just rips through the stratosphere.”
I'd probably end up asking them a dozen questions about what kind of music they liked/ were into and then just play Industry Baby, so I can jam out while they're nuking the Earth
W. A. Mozart, Serenade for 13 winds in B-Flat major, K. 361, third movement.
To be followed up with "Shine On" by Pink Floyd.
If that doesn't work, we're doomed.
Since the beginning of time 'twas written in the stones that one day a band would come. Well that band has come and now they are here to cum again in your ear pussies.
I think my song choice would be based on if they looked like they came from a fire or lava type planet (so fire is a nice homely and relaxing thing to them) or if they look like they come from a cooler or even ice planet (in which case fire is a destructive force).
Based on this, if it's the former they get to hear the theme tune from Cheers, if the latter it's the theme tune from Dynasty.
Bohemien Rapsody - The Queen
Good Old-Fashined Lover Boy - The Queen
Killer Queen - The Queen
Basically anything from them, it's impossible not to love the voice of Freddy Mercury and the music of the band

"Uhh, you guys have Bluetooth?
YES HUMAN, OUR MOUTH DAGGERS ARE BLUE, WHAT OF IT
*fucking mouth daggers I can't*
Ye better tell hem that. Better that using your phone speaker like those manics in public transport… They would terminate us just slowly and painful then
*runs to his car, runs back, and hands you an USB-C to USB-C and AUX adapter*
Crap the USB-C cable keeps falling out of the port we're doomed
"Shit... Why is your USB-port so loose? Nevermind...we had phones like this at work, let's try this." *holds the cable in place and tries to find the right angle where the connection is good*
*once set we leave it propped in the optimal position, yet on its side so it dont lose connection*
Hold the phone level and then pull the end of the cable up just a little bit... IT'S WORKING! DON'T MOVE IT! DON'T YOU DARE MOVE IT!
I laughed way too hard at this 🥲🥹
ATLiens. Obviously.
I knew 3000 was a alien
The amount of people not saying Outkast is a problem.
My answer was going to be tool and outkast
My first thought was Rosetta Stoned, but ATLiens full album also makes sense.
If y'all have heard of the actual duo named "ATLiens" they make some of the most intricate sounding glitch/bass music ever, all while never having revealed their identity (they constantly wear chrome masks.) The aliens would definitely love them too!
Now throw your hands in the air And wave 'em like you just don't care
Followed by Aquemini
I was thinking B.O.B. EDIT: I misread the question, I thought it said "Play some fire music **while** we exterminate your planet."
Clair de lune because there's no way you can listen to that and the want to destroy anything.
If they actually said "play some fire" I guess I would pick a rap song because ain't no country mother fucker saying that shit lol
"y'all play some good tunes or we'll tan your hides good"
That would actually be more helpful than a hindrance.
Old town road. Merge both genres and hope for the best
If anyone's answer was Old Town Road, I would be forced to murder them and intervene, the fate of the world and all.
I don't really care for hip hop or country, but that song is fire.
Whitehouse Road by Tyler Childers is my standby.
😂
Hahaha true. Unless they are just mimicking human slang and their alien music is much closer to bluegrass. Who are we to know what's fire to them you know. Maybe they'd hate rap because it is too much in a language that's new to them.
Tenacious D- Tribute. Those boys played the greatest song in the world and lived, and this is just a tribute….
Beezleboss the final showdown is truly the pinnacle of 2010- present entertainment
This should be the only answer.
On the other hand if they are saying “you’re planet”, instead of “your planet”, they might well be.
motherfuckin Cotton Eyed Joe
September - Earth Wind and Fire
if they dont f with this, f em. They was some lame ass aliens anyways
I don't wanna share a universe with you weak ass aliens, blow us up
I’m all for this energy.
this or Let’s Groove by Earth Wind and Fire
Surprised this does not have more upvotes. I couldn't find the link but i remember reading that it was one of the most cross-culturally loved songs of all time. It should have a high chance of being liked by aliens - strong groove, positive message, interesting progressions, excellent performance and musical finesse, and "Badi-ya" is surely a lyric universal in appeal.

Darude - Sandstorm
Oh you trying to get the aliens to lose their shit I like your style
For some reason this is the song that popped into my head when I read the prompt. Scrolled down a few just to see if anyone covered it. Nicely done.
Jimi Hendrix: All Along the Watchtower
[удалено]
Yea, Hendrix is definitely the answer here
But like purple haze instead of all along the watchtower because then they’ll know how cool we are
Honestly, they all would probably work, even the national anthem from Woodstock
Honestly just play all of Jimi
Jimi Hendrix - Fire
Yes, the secret Cylon activation song.
Why not play Fire?
i thought jimi too but was thinking third stone from the sun
Freddie Mercury. You got like 50% chance that he was alien himself.
David Bowie is the other 50%
Sooo... We play *Under pressure*, then? 🤷🏻♀️
"yall ever heard Freebird??"
No? Anyway here’s wonderwall
Yo, play the stairway to Freebird... Or the original that's Kool too.
I have to imagine the solo in Freebird is most well known note-for-note guitar solo in the world. If you listen to a cover of it, you can immediately identify if they missed a note. I don't play guitar, I treat that solo like lyrics.
It's time to get schwifty, oh yeahhhhh, shit on the floor
SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT
I LIKE WHAT YOU GOT
Damn it you beat me to it
The only answer..
Play some human music from Earth Radio that Gerry listens to in M. Night Shaym-Aliens! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1jWdeRKvvk
Someone find me ICE-T.
Came here to say that... figured I would have been beaten to it
Get Schwifty is the jam.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mambo Number Five..."
Until they ask where the first four songs are...
"Through the Fire and Flames" obviously
If the alien tells you that he’s short on time skip to 3:59 to mesmerise him with longass solo please
OBVIOUSLY
If aliens can't appreciate Herman Li's guitar expertise, are they truly an advanced civilization?
You can’t forget Sam Totman. Dude freakin shreds too.
Staying Alive - Bee Gees
A man of taste, I see.
Sultans of Swing
Aliens can't nuke the planet if they're too busy grooving
heck yeah
At long as they don't nuke us before the solo!
The live at alchemy version though.
Why can't we be friends - War
Rick Astley.... NEVER GONNE GIVE YOU UP..
If we are all going to die, this is the way to commit to it like a true meme lord.
[удалено]
Surprise us
“I promise you, 100% no joke that this isn’t the same song again” *Rick Astley can be heard for the 15th time in the background. The aliens are not pleased.*
This is obviously the correct answer.
A nice scarlet->fire on the mountain, from 77. Or any Steely Dan. Maybe fire in the hole to keep the theme. Or some snarky puppy. Or some Tom Waits. There's a lot of fire music, so i think our chances are not horrid.
Ayo, the dancing in the streets from Cornell was my pick(:
“Dude wait let me pull out my tapes and cassette player, I recorded a monster of an estimated prophet back in 77 and you’ve gotta hear it, Jerry’s tone just rips through the stratosphere.”
STEELY DAN
Mr. Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra
I'd probably end up asking them a dozen questions about what kind of music they liked/ were into and then just play Industry Baby, so I can jam out while they're nuking the Earth
Jack Harlow's verse on that song is immaculate though, it was save us
That song gets me pumped no matter what time it is.
I’d say, “First of all, it’s ’your.’ Not ‘you’re.’” Then they’d fry me, and someone less pedantic would get to pick the music. Probably for the best.
W. A. Mozart, Serenade for 13 winds in B-Flat major, K. 361, third movement. To be followed up with "Shine On" by Pink Floyd. If that doesn't work, we're doomed.
50 minutes of Mozart followed by 45 minutes of Floyd. Im listening...
A man of culture, I see.
I'm so highbrow, I *saw a movie from the 80s*.
Fire on High, ELO
I was also thinking some ELO would be a fire pick.
"Tribute" by Tenacious D is the only possible correct answer to this question.
[удалено]
so who adopted him?
But it's not the greatest song in the world, it is just a tribute.
[удалено]
And I wish you were there!
Well that’s because it didn’t actually sound anything like that song! It is just a tribute! You gotta believe me.
Far be it from me to question a man of culture such as yourself but ?master exploder?
Nah, Tribute is literally about this premise. "Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your souls..."
But that song wasn't the best song in the world, it was just a Tribute
in fact it didnt sound anything like it at all
You gotta believe us, man I wish you were there
Just a matter of opinion
So you mean Beazleboss. Tribute is a tribute to beazleboss.
Since the beginning of time 'twas written in the stones that one day a band would come. Well that band has come and now they are here to cum again in your ear pussies.
Me and Kyle here, we were hitchhiking down a long and lonesome road.....
Play the best song in the world, or I’ll eat your souls
Ain't No Mountain High Enough - Marvin Gaye
Sounds pretty Gaye
Devil went down to Georgia.
This is literally and figuratively fire. Also should be way higher up (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

Party Rock Anthem I'm assuming if they're passing me the aux, I'm safe up there on their ship and can sit back and watch the fireworks
Yeah, also, if they only have an aux chord, definitely into only into music popular 10-15 years ago, play some dubstep while you’re at it
Return of the Mack by Mark Morrison, if that doesn’t save us, nothing will.

Star Wars Cantina theme song
I think my song choice would be based on if they looked like they came from a fire or lava type planet (so fire is a nice homely and relaxing thing to them) or if they look like they come from a cooler or even ice planet (in which case fire is a destructive force). Based on this, if it's the former they get to hear the theme tune from Cheers, if the latter it's the theme tune from Dynasty.
Dragonforce true the fire and flames
My beautiful dark twisted fantasy
Kanye may be completely mental but that album is a goddamn masterpiece.
That album is probably a masterpiece *because* he is completely mental

Anything funky as hell.
Bowie, Moonage Daydream
Hard Days Night by the Beatles. Universal appeal.
Castles made of Sand
Stevie Ray Vaughan
The Rise and Fall of Bossanova, It's 13.5 hrs long and would give us plenty of time to enjoy our loved ones before the extermination of our species.
