[livejournal.com profile] shadesong mentioned trying to keep up with "One Week" and "We Didn't Start The Fire" in the car, which led me to come up with a dozen candidates for "songs that will trip your tongue if you try to sing along". Can you get through the whole half hour?

1. "Confrontation", Les Misérables Original Broadway Cast (try to keep up with Javert and Valjean!)
2. "Hourglass", Squeeze
3. "What About Everything?", Carbon Leaf
4. "One Week", Barenaked Ladies
5. "Your Horoscope For Today", "Weird Al" Yankovic
6. "Can You Picture That?", Dr. Teeth & The Electric Mayhem
7. "We Didn't Start The Fire", Billy Joel (Flash version)
8. "Alphabet Of Nations", They Might Be Giants (WMV of live performance with additional lyrics)
9. "Bruces' Philosophers Song", Monty Python
10. "A Simple Desultory Philippic (Or How I Was Robert McNamara'd Into Submission)", Simon & Garfunkel
11. "The Elements", Tom Lehrer (Flash version)
12. "Stay", Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories

I'm not getting how it's possible to sing both parts of "Confrontation."

The song I've been punishing myself trying to wrap my tongue around lately is "Hebridean Hale-Bopp," by Capercaille. That might be easier if I could understand the lyrics.

"Sound System" by Operation Ivy is fairly punishing, too, but it's short enough that you can just stumble over the hard parts and feel like you did alright.
