Notable Too-Hot-For-P2P Songs

Below is a list I put together from this list of untouchables (or rather, if you touch it, you're phuqed):

3 Doors Down -- Be Like That
Yea, because that's on everyone's must-have list.
Billy Idol -- Dancing with Myself
Uhh, does anyone know anyone that will admit to knowing anyone that has ever listened to any of his songs? And I don't mean his cameo in The Wedding Singer.
Dr. Dre -- Don't Forget about Dre
I'm really not jiggy with it anymore (being an Adult Real Person® and all) but who are these guys kidding? I talked to Jason, we think something like the following happened:

Person A: "uhh, our list isn't complete"
Person B: "I know exactly what we need, a washed-out, has-been gangsta from one of them coasts"
Both together: "Dr. Dre"

DURAN DURAN -- Hungry Like the Wolf
If you get caught swapping Duran Duran files you deserve to be beaten like a Mexican pinata on Cinco de Mayo.

Any song by Green Day. You are lamer than that "L" chick in Smashmouth's All Star song.

Ice Cube -- You Can Do It
Actually, just using his name is a tacit endorsement for such unoriginal nomenclatures. Someone should call me Colloidal Fog or Homogenous Pepper or Universal Solvent. Hell, if you want to be as basic as a physical property, just call me Liquid Aqua: sup jefe.
Jennifer Lopez -- Play
I will personally build the rubber-band gun that shoots your rumpage out of Dodge. You need to read up on what constitutes "thinking" and "cognition."
Madonna -- Material Girl
Isn't that like her "big" song? C'mon RIAA, are you that petty? I'm not sure about you, but I'm fairly certain that every person, whether they are Joe Tribesman in Sub-Saharan Africa or Paco the Chilean migrant all deserve to hear Breathless Mahoney in action. It's a universal right...

Anything by Michael Jackson, if you are caught you deserve to have your picture taken, pasted in every woman's bathroom with the words "I am a eunuch" written on top of your forehead and ultimately cock-blocked for life.

Paula Abdul -- Cold Hearted
Hmm, I'm fairly certain that Ms. Paula is starving to death in some Gotham-like ghetto because you're depriving her of millions in royalties each and every year. You're cold hearted and a sick bastard.
Ricky Martin -- Livin' La Vida Loca
How much do you want to wager that your average Kazaa user thinks that "Livin' La Vida Loca" is about a story of a local female video store clerk who lives in New York City and goes insane after drinking too much bubbly, gets butt ass naked in the middle of 5th Avenue and does some weird cranial surgery at night -- I rest my case.

U2, they didn't even list one that is remotely popular to anyone outside of whatever Ivory Tower the executives at the RIAA live in. Or rather, maybe Bono truly thinks that "All I Want Is You" is uber popular among the krazy kats here in America (actually, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For is the first song I download each time I install Kazaa on a computer).

Van Halen -- Hot for Teacher
So my question is, which member is alive and can form a sentence (note: a sentence for the purposes of this exercise involves using 3 words similar in style to 'run spot run')? Does this hint at the high intellectual level these melacious "pirates" are operating at? I think even baby Jebus would cut them some slack.
Wyclef Jean -- Guantanamera
Now this is a personal favorite. Back in high school spanish class we would sing this (though, in a non-profit sense, no one made mucho dinero cuando habla la musica magnifica). Truthfully, who doesn't already know all 1723 spanglish words to Guantanamera? De donde crecen las palmas...

So in summation, with the sole exception of MC Hammer's 2 Legit 2 Quit, I am convinced that the individuals that are caught, prosecuted, detained and executed for the villainous crimes of holding, trading and copying these files, had it coming to them. You should all be whipped with a soggy noodle and burned by itty bitty magnifying glasses like the little petulant ant you are.

Oh and I'm also wondering if any artist not listed here is going to be upset, after all, they're livelihoods are also at stake... I mean bands like Pink and Tamia are certainly in much higher demand than Marky Mark and Vanilla Ice, right?

The greatest shame of my life is that I have the single of 2 Legit 2 Quit somewhere.
I think its hidden behind my Sailor Moon soundtrack or my copy of The Turner Diaries. You know, the stuff you don't mind if your friends discover you own.

Man, anyone that willingly listens to Van Halen should be locked up and their computer confescated and destroyed...
