Every movie has one, so South Park's gotta have one. Here's who I think should be on it:
Green Day Smash Mouth Marcy Playground Barenaked Ladies Some of the girls from Lilith Fair Goo Goo Dolls Alanis Morisette Puff Daddy Matchbox 20 Jewel Smashing Pumpkins Aerosmith Third Eye Blind Tonic
Now who do you think should be on it (Isaac Hayes does not count)?
I don't think they should even have "big name artists" on the soundtrak. Star Wars didn't have any alternative or rap (you're killin us whitey) songs in it and it's a top 100. Hey Puffy daddy go take your millions and buy watermellon for all your crips in da hood

Fine.
Uh, no..
Finr.
No.
Yes, please.
My choices:
Tracy Bonham Alice in Chains AC/DC OZZY (Anyone see him live? He added South Park footage to his video!) Rusted Root Phish Veruca Salt Splendora Led Zep
----- Powerslave AKA Hitchhiker AKA Lone Wolf My Kung-Fu is the best.

GWAR. Korn. Skrew. Mercyful Fate... wait a minute these are terrible ideas, brought on by my terrible taste in music! Everyone's forgetting Matt and Trey's own band, which Rolling Stone called "the greatest and certainly the funniest band you've never heard of." I am referring of course to DVDA.

"God, grant me the strength to change what I can, the inability to accept what I can't, and the incapacity to tell the difference."
That reads like a cynically accurate prediction of who WILL be on the soundtrack, if the record company bigshots have their way. However, rather than let this thread degenerate into an "everybody list their favorite bands" free-for-all, I would recommend that the artists in question have at least some relevance to South Park, even if it's only tangential.
Examples:
Primus Isaac Hayes Loverboy The Time The Cure (how 'bout a duet w/ Streisand?)
I also would suggest the likes of Ween or They Might Be Giants, as the vocals and musical arrangements are inherently "cartoonish".

And a new Ned & Jimbo acoustic song.
Maybe a rendition of Stairway to Heaven?

Oh, these are *all* good ideas, (and I'm referring to everything everyone's posted), but I have it on the highest authority that the score will be written by Kandor and Ebb, and the incidental music by Stephen Sondheim and Phillip Glass.
Scoff if you will, but I have it on the *HIGHEST AUTHORITY*.
Personally, I think the idea of having popular bands play the soundtrack SUCKS. But I know for a fact that the soundtrack for Orgazmo has Primus on it, because Trey and Matt are big Primus fans.
Green Day Mr. T Experience Blink 182 They Might Be Giants Beastie Boys AVAIL Squirtgun (they were on MALLRATS! I almost shit myself!!!) Weezer MxPx Bloodhound Gang (think about it...I Wish I Were Queer So I Could Get Chicks)
-Kevyn Implosion "At the age of six or seven I was in my prime and ever since that time it's been a steady decline" -Mr. T Experience
NO MxPx. I fucking hate them. Any band that tries to encourage anyone to move to Bremerton (which is where I live, and let me tell you something- it's a pit) needs to be pulled out into the street and shot.
Oh god no! I hate fudging Blink182, sure that Dammit song was cute, but their immature kids who think their cool 'cos they play in a band. I saw them play live and all they did was make stupid jokes about masturbation and farts. Sure, its hillarious when they do jokes to similar on South Park, but NO ONE was laughing at what these guys had to say. "Hi, we're going to sing a song about America's favourite past-time. Its called... Masturbation. Hur hur hur, I made a funny" And the rest of their music's terrible. Nuff said.
I was saying "please", as in "please God, fuck no!!" They are an insult to real punk kids everywhere. If I see another skater idiot prancing around in Hot Topic in the mall saying somethings about how "vinyl is more indie", I'll have to punch him right then and there. You can smell the idiocy...
good list....not bad at all. what about 311? the whole of the Litlith Fair chicks don't seem like they'd really "match" the whole bizzareness of SP in the first place.
BarenakedLadies Green Day (wierd and crazy enough) Aerosmith (just cuz they're kewl like that) Smashing Pumpkins (see: Green Day) Third Eye Blind Beastie Boys - DEFINITELY! Flea - just for background jams Live - ? (dunno, don't think they'd do it tho) Massive Attack Prodigy - DEFINITELY! Korn - DEFINITELY! Henry Rollins Band (this one'll be the day )

Well, the Chilis work on the B&B movie was just superb.
Liam is a fan. (my mate Gizz is the guitarist in this band) You may spot a little model of Eric Cartman on the keyboards, if you've seen this band live on the recent US tour.
Anyway, the Chemical Brothers will be on the forthcoming Southpark thing CD. Not exactly Prodigy, but I do know that a lot of Prodigy fans like Chemical Brothers.
No idea. Heard them on the radio ONCE, and that was bad enough. However, one of their lot punched Tre Cool from Green Day (IIRC), so they've got something going for 'em!
That's Public Enemy.
Are you actually gonna pluck up the courage this time!?
Fat-Ass Of The Land. :)
One thing about that Time magazine poll: WHO GIVES A FLYING FUCK? People on this group talk about it as if it was life-and-death.
As will Blur (yay) and the All Saints (erk) and the Sp*ce G*rls (even bigger erk).
With regard to the last two (and Hanson, especially) - WHY!?
South Park is supposed to be an adult cartoon, so let's keep that fucking Alvin & The Chipmunks Tribute Band (aka Hanson) off the CD.
There was one on the Prodigy ng not so long ago. And one I met IRL.
Hmm. Maybe. Public Enemy were perhaps a more important band, but I still prefer the Beasties...
What do you mean by that?
Hehe...
Hey, calm down Pete, it's just a bit of fun... you've got to admit it's funny seeing a poll like that with a cartoon character like Cartman in 3rd place!
Bet it will be Song 2..
When the movie comes out will they do a soundtrack for that too?
I, don't know a Prodigy fan who doesn't like the chems..
i think its actually a song they did specifically about sp. they played it at glastonbury and i'm still wondering, can anyone make an mp3 of it please??? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - if you talk to god, you are praying; if god talks to you, you have schizophrenia (Thomas Szasz)

That would be cool, but you forget that this show is set in Colorado, a rural Colorado mountion town. That is Country music territory. *yes, I live in Colorado*
Speaking of country music, i heard a while back *a few months* that country music is the most listened to music in the country - and I had a little informal study of my own. I drive a school bus and the VAST majoity *about 75%* of all students I drove wanted Country. And out of drivers the WAY VAST majority *about 90%* listened to country.
but look at Matt & Trey, they grew up there, and do you think they want a country soundtrack?? not to mention the fact that NOT ONE country music icon-type person has been portrayed in any of the SP shows.....
i think the alternative-music-type lists that have been listed so far would fit right perfectly with the whacked-out humor that we've grown to enjoy and love!
(oh yeah, shoulda added Robert Smith to my soundtrack list :) )
just my $0.02
