Poll question: Which song will trigger the interstellar invasion when it reaches the
nearest civilized (or anyway populated) planet?

You've got to admit it's a creative way to run the ol' Worst Song Ever poll.:)

For once I'm leaving off God Bless the USA and Do You Remember because as songs they're just tedious and trite; the aliens would need to have explained to them the cynicism behind these. The Other function still works, though.

10. I think it just put us on the watchlist; 20 years later, Macarena and Dogs
would put us over the top.

9. You've got my vote.
"Small World" would be a terribly painful earworm to inflict on an interstellar commmunity.

Besides, they might think we really are small and just come to kick our collective asses 'cause they can. :)
