Oz ,'Same Time, Same Place'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I can switch too. I'm two songs away from finishing, but I'm going to have to tweak some to get it under eighty minutes. That's really the most frustrating thing about this--I found 25 (+2 I haven't chosen yet) individual songs for all the categories, but if I can't fit it all in...
PS: This might be cheating, but: Songs that Quote Other Songs.
I have a number of songs that I used for more than one category as well.

From a very recent Gary Numan Q&A:
Did you watch any sci-fi on TV last night?
(Kerry Malenkova, Canada)
GN: "I didn't watch anything because I was working but we use Sky Plus so we can record and watch in our own time. Last night we recorded 'Battlestar Galactica' and 'Prison Break'. I'm not a very big sci-fi fan, to be honest, and haven't been for twenty years or more. I do like 'Battlestar Galactica', though. My favourite ever sci-fi series was 'Firefly' but they only did one series and it got cancelled. It's brilliant; that new film 'Serenity' comes from it. One of my biggest albums ['Replicas] was loosely based on sci-fi but that was about 27 years ago. People associating me with sci-fi has gone on longer than I expected. Assumptions become accepted as fact, like people think I'm miserable... well, if they think of me at all (laughs)."

3. WFMU's fundraising marathon is going on, which means that Yo La Tengo will be performing this evening, and will play any song for a pledge of $10.
Classical CDs illustrated by contemporary cartoonists
The label website has all of them listed. There's a page for each CD with info about each cartoonist.
Question about the mixology: is it acceptable to include a cover of a cowbell song if you can't necessarily determine if said cowbell is actually present?

I'm going to take a hardline and argue that a cowbell song should prominently feature cowbell such that its presence is not in question. In short, More Cowbell!

Well, if we're arguing...I'm going to argue that you should do what you want! Make a case for the song having the essence of cowbell or something.
OMG,
essence of cowbell
great band name, also just something I want to be able to buy in bottled form.
