Internet Sets Sonia Sotomayor Supreme Court Nomination to Music

Okay, I’m a sucker for pitches like these, I admit it:

“In response to Sonia Sotomayor’s appointment to the Supreme Court, mobile music site mSpot.com has pulled together a list of five (and certainly there are many more) ringtones that speak — or rather, sing — to the big news. The beauty of these ringtones is that mSpot.com allows you to edit up to 30 seconds of your favorite law-abiding tone — you don’t have to download what the carrier pre-selected.

“We went ahead and selected a few choice lyrics for you…”

• Daughter of Justice — The Undecided
  “We live in a world with so few answers, where is the justice that she seeks? Who will end this poverty?”
• Courthouse — Chris Isaak
  “People take their places, down at the courthouse / People stand in line to see you fall.”
• Ladies’ Choice — Zac Efron (from Hairspray)
  “…shop around little darlin’, I’ve got to be the Ladies’ Choice, Ladies’ Choice.”
• Judgement Day — Whitesnake
  “With only love to light the way.. on the road to judgement day”
• She’s the One — The Ramones
  “Yeah yeah she’s the one.. When I see her on the street, you know she makes my life complete”

————————————–

Hmmmm, not a bad start (the Whitesnake and Ramones tunes counter Zac Efron, if barely…), but let’s see if we can do better. How about one for the Republican talking points?

• She’s a Rebel — Green Day
  “She’s a rebel, She’s a saint, She’s the salt of the earth, And she’s dangerous”

Or one about Obama and identity politics?

• Black Dog — Led Zeppelin
  “All I ask for an’ all I pray, Steady rollin’ woman gonna come my way”

You’re next! Leave results in the comments…
