      I’m loving Red Lights by Delphic at the moment.

      There are lots of science songs out there!

      For example there is a metabolism rap

      From CERN you get these:

      and there is the biochemist’s song book
      http://www.csulb.edu/~cohlberg/songbook.html

      finally there is the yearly science music competition

      As for my favourite song – I think if you mean ever it would have to be something like “Sittin on the dock of the bay”

      For a ‘mainstream’ science song- I really like “Chemistry” by Semisonic

      At the moment my favourite song is probably Thunderstruck by AC/DC, but that’s an old song – although they did the soundtrack to Ironman 2 recently.

      This afternoon I like “No surprises” by Regina Spektor. It’s a bit sad though.

      This morning I liked “Pass the dutch” by Missy Elliott.

      Neither of them are very sciency!
