A song that people will think OWS is coming when they hear it. It needs to be powerful and upbeat. I propose this song.
I would recommend this song:

I do not know this artist and have nothing to gain from this. I think the song is a perfect match for the movement, whether the writer intentionally did so or not.
I suggest "Broken Hearts Are For Ass-Holes" or "Suicide Chump" both by Frank Zappa.

Young Americans.
That rocks. It sends a clear message and has power.

Dude, that is exactly what I am talking about. I am still snapping my fingers to that one.
'You Know What You Are' by Nine Inch Nails.
That is a nice pick. You cannot go wrong with the Spin Doctors.

That's a good one.
[sarcasm]Yes OMG we cannot operate without a theme song!! [/sarcasm]
Please don't mock constructive ideas.
It's just that there are SO many more important issues to be considered, I cannot condone wasting time or effort on such frivolity.
It's not hard. Just have the consensus pick one. It can be voted on at the GA using democracy. It adds power to the movement.
