To the people who don't recognize these: every song here is a "sounds like", meaning they've changed the lyrics enough to not have to pay royalties.

The first one is very obviously Elvis Costello's "Pump It Up". And a few down down there is a Green Day rip, and some others.

I'll go through and see if it's worth mentioning what is what, but this entire thing is like a Muzack ripoff where they were avoiding paying the artists.
