I think I'd like to meet and alien race of Don Rickles type faces, on a multilegged body, and depending on the shape of their ship, Journey's "wheel in the sky".

I'd like to see aliens that look like Sackboy or Sackgirl from Little Big Planet. I think I'd play them some Cat Stevens (Here Comes My Baby) first. Thanks!

The aliens are already here. And so many of us live with them already. Anyone else "own" a cat? My alien like James Brown. Go figure.

Aliens just now got the signals from the "Mary Tyler Moore Show", and transformed themselves to look like cast. The one who looks like Ted Baxter is their leader. I race to the box and play the theme song, "Love is All Around", and they start tossing hats in the air.

The AIs from Iain Banks Culture novels, and "The End Of The World As We Know It" by REM.

The aliens would arrive in ships like the ones on Boston's 1976 debut album "Boston." Naturally, with their extra-terrestrial love of butt-rock, I would imagine once they heard "Hotel California" it would become a theme song of their impending take over of planet earth.

I'd want the alien from The Explorers (80's movie with Ethan Hawke) to shuffle its feet in my backyard listening to Otis' Redding's "She's All Right".

I would like to see aliens in dress similar to GWAR and I would play them " Revolution is my Name" by Pantera.

aliens that look like broccoli and i'd play them that cheese sauce song...

I'd like it to be Gazoo from The Flintstones. I'd play a little "We Looked Like Giants" by Death Cab for him.

Clear bubbles with extraterrestrial Walker Texas Ranger look-alikes hovering inside of them ready to burst and attack at any moment. Keep On the Sunny Side by The Whites would quickly sooth them.

They would look like a clone of me and I'd be playing "Hello" by Lionel Ritchie

The little furry guy from the flight of the navigator and I would play huey lewis and the news "hip to be square".

Time Lords... Soul Meets Body by Deathcab. Mellow yet enlightening

I'd like robot aliens. Then I'd play the Flight of the Conchords song about robots. That might inspire them to kill all the humans though...so maybe not.

I'd play "I turn my camera on" by Spoon. I hope they look like donuts.

Unicellular aliens. Bach fugues.

hmmm.. alien... i guess the alien would look all translucent in like a holographic kind of way, and probably smell like lollipops. As for the song I'd play- Definately "Fire on High" by ELO- it would be amazing!

Crustacean aliens akin to Dr. Zoidberg, who I would play "Sing Me Spanish Techno" by The New Pornographers for.

I would like to see the friendly kind... I would play "It's the end of the world as we know it" and I feel fine.

I would like to see aliens that look like Meatwad from Aquateen Hunger Force and I would play "Excursions" by A Tribe Called Quest.

I would think the Pherengie from Star Trek. Not because they are greedy and scheming but because they have those really large ears and would appreciate a system like this way more than the regular grey - no ear type aliens.

I probably would play some Moby. He is pretty alien and they would feel comfortable with that. In this world or Extreme Ways seem right.

D.

Cat people, like Anne McCaffery's Hrubans and I would play "Tuna" by Hooverphonic.

~Exotic fish will never be able to walk, as long as we live~

The Star Trek crew!

Aliens that use a human body as a host, living in their stomach. Kind of like Kuato, the mutant living in his brother's abdomen in Total Recall. "See you at the party Rickter!"

I would play "Eye in the Sky" by Alan Parson's Project

Mr chills for sure. I'd play him some Kinky Reggae.

Definitely an advanced shape changer that could appear as anyone that chose for them to be. And I would play "I Am The Walrus" by the Beatles and see if they could make any sense of it.

I would say just nice aliens then I would play Little Pink Houses"

The kind that would help to bring peace to the planet, not devour us or deplete our resources. From A Distance might be a fitting song.

I would like to see aliens that looked like characters from Super Mario Bros.

The first song I would play them is "Karn Evil" by ELP.

ET, Bach unaccompanied cello

Aliens that smell like chocolate. Maybe that Mexican chocolate, with the hot peppers, that would be good. Or ginger. The aliens, not the chocolate. As for music ... Sun Ra, of course, unless they're from Saturn because Ra had this really bad weekend there once and they still haven't forgiven him.

Aliens like the ones in "The Day The Earth Stood Still", and I'd play them "Assimilate" by Skinny Puppy.

I'd like to see aliens that would laugh at the way we communicate and then feel sorry enough for us to show us how to improve it. I'd probably play "Reset" by Mute Math.

Keeping my fingers crossed that the Great Kazoo from the Flintstones will make an appearance hopefully animated in 2-D and I will whistle to the Great Kazoo the song from Bugs Bunny / a shave and a haircut medly.

Nice comforting aliens like Mrs. Whosits and Whatsits in A Wrinkle in Time. I'd play "Rainbow Connection" since who doesn't love Kermit the Frog?!

Naturally I would wish that things follow the universe that Gene Roddenberry would have us live in. We will be visited by Vulcans. They will take note of Zefram Cochrane's first warp ship, and come to visit. The first song they will hear is something from Carl Orff's "A Play to the End of Time." They will promptly leave.

I'd like to meet a alien evolved from a plant. (My first question would be how do they feed themselves, carnivorous maybe?) Id play the song Homeworld by Yes

Aliens like the toy ones from Toy Story. I'll play them the Battlestar Galactica (2003) opening song from the first few seasons.

That system is amazing! I'd hope for something like a Vulcan like Spock (are there any aliens besides Star Trek?). And I'd have to go with a song by Newsboys called "take me to your leader" because it's just the right thing to do. Otherwise something like Delilah by Plain White Tees for it's calming effect on the whole situation.

I'd hope they would be humanoid type beings so we'd have something in common before I blasted them with "Back in Black" by AC/DC. Earth don't mess around!

I think there are aliens on earth already...but if they came down from outer space, I hope they would have special abilities to teach us esp, and to speak to each other with our minds..all that cool star trek stuff..thanks for the contest.

Plutonians. And I would tell them that their homeworld is no longer a planet according to our scientists. Then I'd play them "Mercury" by Bloc Party just to rub it in.

I'd want an alien from Pluto to visit so they can prove that Pluto is a planet...just like it once used to be. I'd play Eye of the Tiger so they would feel all mighty and powerful!

Geez. I am so out of it. I don't know any kinds of aliens, but I do know what I'd play if they showed up: a little Pupy y los que son son--and if they can't dance, they're goin' back.

Wouldn't it be great if the aliens looked the the aliens in Sesame Street? Then I'd play them Mahna Mahna and see if it's their kind of song.

Well first off they would obviously have the the force and lightsabers, nuff said. And we'd have a good history lesson with to Billy Jole's 'We Didnt Start the Fire'; showing them it was in deed not our fault for the state of the world, but the generation before us. Guess we didn't have a chance ;)

CTHULHU!! ...and I'd play Plaster Casts of Everything by Liars to set the mood to my eventual descent into madness.

I always imagine the Close Encounters-type, even if they are just a figment of Steven Spielberg's imagination, though I am sure that they would enjoy more than just 5 tones over and over and over, so I would play them some classic 1970s-era Miles Davis

Beautiful femaliens- I'd play Tracy Morgan singing the theme song to "Astronaut Jones"!

Aliens that came in all colors and play Human Behavior by Björk.

The Simpsons aliens would get an earful of REO Speedwagon.

The aliens would look like Labrador Retrievers and I'd play them "Once Around the Block" by Badly Drawn Boy for no other reason than I happen to like that song a lot right now.

I like to imagine the government's solution here: No matter what they look like, play the background "music" from Space Invaders and shoot 'em! :)

how about palinians. all decked out in $150K outfits. hot.
tunes? blossom dearie - someone to watch over me

I'd like to see EcoAliens that share green technologies with us to rid our oil addiction (sigh). I'd play Bowie's "Life on Mars" for them.

I'm would look forward to seeing tribble's (and giving them to my ex girlfriend - who loves furry animals, but has never seen an episode of Star Trek in her life). I'd gladly play for them, and her, Fu-Schnickens "I'm a True Fu-Schnick".

Jonathan Richman's "Here come the martian martians" for, well, the martians.

Ummm...harmless aliens. I would probably play them some Bowie.

ALPHADRACONIANS
Reptilian beings who are said to have established colonies in Alpha Draconis. Like all reptilians, they claim to have originated on Terra thousands of years ago, a fact that they use to 'justify' their attempt to retake the earth for their own. They are apparently a major part of a planned 'invasion' which is eventually turning from covert infiltration mode to overt invasion mode as the "window of opportunity" (the time span before International human society becomes an interplanetary and interstellar power) slowly begins to close. They are attempting to keep the "window" open by suppressing advanced technology from the masses, which would lead to eventual Terran colonization of other planets by Earth and an eventual solution to the population, pollution, food and other environmental problems. Being that Terrans have an inbred "warrior" instinct, the Draconians DO NOT want them/us to attain interstellar capabilities and therefore become a threat to their imperialistic agendas.

Everyone knows aliens hate "Indian Love Call" by Slim Whitman

Fun loving aliens listening to Space Oddity by David Bowie.

Hopefully they will be rich aliens, we can sell them some sub-prime loans and ride the gravy train. AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" would greet them.

Remember the futuristic society that Bill and Ted were supposed to create (by way of their excellent adventures, of course!)? I'd like those guys to visit (particularly if George Carlin were still around in this hypothetical reality) and we'd listen to Ziggy Stardust. Then we'd jam. Badly.

Incidentally, I made a pretty entertaining playlist a few days ago entitled "Sci-Fi Meets Hi-Fi." Now I might have to revise it to include some of these songs!

I would hope for very friendly aliens---then I would plsy My Way by Frank Sintra. LOL LOL LOL

I would love to see some Vulcans visiting earth only to be greeted with some Meatloaf "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" on my AR. They'd think we're totally nuts and not worth their time. Frankly, pretty much anything by Meatloaf would work.

Klaatu, I want to meet an alien like Klaatu, and I would play for him Mogwai - Danphe and the Brain or the sun smells too loud,

I'd be jazzed to see some aliens from Uranus - they'd get to hear whatever is playing on KEXP - my favorite radio station!

Non-threatening aliens, and I'd play them some Bach just to make sure they didn't get jumpy and all dangeous and stuff (isn't classical music supposed to be calming?)

Fluffy talking dog aliens. Because seriously, one day my dog will talk.
And if it was still early on in the day - "Mars" by Lori Mckenna, but if it's a Friday night and I'm getting ready to go out - then we'd have to jam to "Bodysnatchers" by Radiohead.

I'd like to see some really friendly oxygen-producing aliens, and I'd play them Eruption by Van Halen because 1. There are no lyrics, so no language barrier issues, 2. It's short enough to not stress them out or confuse them, and 3. It can't helpe but get them totally amped for Earth.

aliens that look like star wars characters would be cool. or maybe the aliens would take the form of extinct animals?!

Any kind of aliens that can dance -- to Rapture (blondie).

Little furry ones that look like a Furbie or a Poppel. I would play them A Summer Song by Chad and Jeremy because I think it would make them happy and maybe they would purr a little and take a nap with me.

Type of alien: Martians - the concept of martians is as retro as this unit.
Song: the Martian Hop by the Ran-Dells (awesome tune)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYlaJJqBXZM

I'd probably play him some classic Johnny Cash... maybe "Burnin' Ring of Fire", heh.

I'd like to play David Bowie's "Life on Mars" to some Martians.

friendly aliens please. I'd play B52's Roam and travel with them on their spaceship!

All scuishy pinkeshly blooeshly transperent with liserdy cold, smooth and wet skin cha cha hopefully friendly :P and I would play " I push my thinger in to your eyes..." song

I would like some sweet, fuzzy aliens that spoke all languages well and I would play them Around the World and we'd dance!

I'd play "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N' Roses for aliens that look like the Gelflings from The Dark Crystal

I vote for Vulcans. Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of The Moon" blasting at full volume.

I would like to see Aliens with asymmetrical features as it seems humans can only imagine aliens that look just like them. I would play Here on Earth by Love and Rockets.

Well, to make my son happy they would have to be aliens from a galaxy far, far away... maybe a guy named Skywalker?

Anyway, I would play Dark Side of the Moon. Just because

they'd look like a Slinky and I would play for them David Bowie's Space Oddity

Evil dictators would be great (you know, replace the ones we have with intelligent beings.) I'd play Radiohead's Fake Plastic Trees.

They would look like they always do when they visit....skinny green guys with big eyes the song would be....

Oscar the Grouch's version of "Somewhere over the rainbow"....very rare release for their special visit!

Oscar the grouch type aliens and we'd listen to "when you're strange" by the Doors.

I have always been scared of aliens ever since I was little and had a dream that they were living on my bottom bunk.
I picture them being translucent, flying around and glowy..really pretty but murderous..
I imagine myself playing them Ladytron "Ghosts"...cuz it sounds to me what a lady alien would sound like if she sang in English..I would hope they would love it and not eat my face off..

My aliens are short in stature but great in numbers. Thousands of 2 inch tall, 3 inch round beings, on four legs but with four arms, one to above each leg. They crawl about in a seemingly random manner, because any direction could be forward. They have no discernible front or back, even top and bottom is utterly identical to the naked eye, with their limbs each terminating with the same three tentacled "hand." They appear to move comfortably across our Earth's ground from their intergalactic transport, which bears an odd resemblance to Sophia from The Golden Girls in a racing-striped jumpsuit. They are led by the "large" one, measuring in at a full 3 inches high. Their color reminds me of Barney, all bright purple with accents of yellow and green about them. All but this leader. He is completely reflective. As reflective as chrome, but his body is as fluid as the rest of them.

I pull out my iPod and try to find something good for them to listen to, only to realize that they do not appear to have ears nor eyes or mouths, for that matter. I plug my iPod into my car stereo input anyway, and flip on the track with the most outrageous bass I've heard, something they wouldn't have to hear, they could feel it: Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend." Yes, I know, a guilty pleasure at best, but listen to it on a huge subwoofer. I dare you.

The two 12" subs in my car rumble to life a minute into the song. The old beater seems like it might shake to pieces, but she holds strong. The little E.T.s climb atop the roof of the car and start jumping and shuffling and shimmying around. It was the most fantastical thing I've ever seen.

-----------

I really shouldn't work 14 hour shifts. They do strange things to my brain. But as a side note, this giveaway looks awesome.

I'd like to discover that aliens are like the sweet little doozers from Fraggle Rock. And I'd play them Springsteen's _Greetings from Asbury Park_ so they kick off their visit with the best.

Aliens that are exact replicas of 80's celebrities. I would play them Rock Me Amadeus by Falco and other 80's hits.

Niblonians would come to visit, and we'd all do a dramatic piece of performance art to "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen.

They would all be in costume trying to blend in with us humans...too bad all they know of us is our television broadcasts right before Halloween! There would be a Michael Myers and a Freddy...and of course Pinhead and maybe a couple of freaky doctors from the twilight zone. I'd see through their clever attempts and play them Subterrainian Homesick Alien from radiohead.

Aliens from a smoky jazz bar...I'll be playing Billie's "Them There Eyes"

I'd like to see peaceful aliens and I think I would play them something ethereal like Enya.

Aliens that fix our financial issues. I'd play something by the boss, of course.

The aliens are like the ones from the Ridley Scott movie, ferocious and out for blood. I would play them Boy George's "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me" right before they eat me alive.

I would like to see yummy edible aliens, and the first song I would play for them is "Yummy, Yummy, Yummy, I got love in my tummy..."

a consciousness that can communicate greater mindfulness to humankind and all earthly beings "imagine" john lennon.

I'm hoping for the 3rd Rock aliens. They're getting an earful of Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack, starting with 'Dammit, Janet'. Welcome to Earth.

Aliens bearing the secrets of clean and plentiful energy would be welcome on my planet any day. And I'd play them a little Elvis Costello to greet them. How about "Radio, Radio?" Great song.

Tribbles! And I would play "Detachable Penis".

I would hope that they would be well dressed aliens and I would play them some Roxy Music.

I like Doctor Who just fine, the 8th one was pretty darn cute, although any of them would be swell. The first song I'd play for them would be Humans from Earth by T-Bone Burnett. (Although it's about us traveling to see them.) I really love that radio!!!

I would play "Cat Scratch Fever" for the Boov.

A female alien from the original Star Trek, love those sixties mini skirts and go go boots.

A little obvious maybe, but I'd play Fly Me to the Moon by Astrud Gilberto.

First I'd welcome it with "Hello Spaceboy" then " Is there Life on Mars", for the aliens who I just have to assume all look like David Bowie. But is that sexist?

The aliens would have to be the Nibblonians and I would play some sort of catchy dance number and we would all break out in dance like some sort of musical.

Alien children of Cthulu infiltrate my starship, big slimy tentacled monsters that scream as I hack at their wildly flailing limbs. "Helena" by The Misfits plays over the com system as I laugh hysterically, covered in viscous green goop. Do you still love me anyway?

little green men. Play Yellow submarine by the Beatles

Like Mars attacks aliens, they are very funny. Any U2 song. :)

Anything friendly I hope, then sit them down (if they sit) for a random sampling of Beatles.

Hopefully non-violent Aliens who are a whole lot smarter than us. I will play CHILDREN OF THE SUN by Billy Thorpe

Expatriate Earthlings coming back after 8 thousand years.. They would be coming to repair their gene pool that had been wrecked by overproduction because they were all identical, all purple skin, all triangular shaped eyes resulting in all 23 inch penis' on the males and 2 inch deep vaginas on the females . They were expatriate Earthlings who had left planet Earth because they didn't like living with people who were black, yellow, red and white which they considered inferior. Their new motto agreed upon by their leaders is "Its not nice to fool Mother Nature". The first music I would play for them would be The Age Of Aquarius sung by Andrea Bocelli.

I would like aliens from Omicron Persiae 8 to visit and I would play "Stairway to Heaven" as covered by Dolly Parton. I would pretend to be a stairway salesmen, making a fair amount of money which I would spend on one last day of all the things I've ever wanted to do before they ate the entire human race because the stairway led to nowhere.

I hope they have ways of communicating and are relatively nice. I hope that there not green slime like people. I also hope they have some fresh ideas on how to save our planet from pollution and give us great technology ideas. I would play the song When the Children Cry by White Lion.

I'd like to see aliens who looks just like humans, and I'd play them some John Mayer... probably "Gravity."

I'd like to see cute Mars babies (though I do miss ET too) and I would play them our wedding CD with some Louis & Ella.

I would like to see aliens come to earth with the power to cure autism, and heal those afflicted with it.....then my child could live a "normal" life.

I would like my aliens to be pinguid, in the way of the Michelin Man, and have green hair. I would play them "Every Party Has a Winner and a Loser," so they don't get their hopes up too much.

I would play the Carpenter's "Calling Occupants of Interplantatery Craft" and I would hope for aliens that would be excited to bring along anyone who wanted to go with them to an adventurous (and free!) galactic civilization. Preferable really hot aliens who like the Carpenters.

I would say just nice aliens then I would play Little Pink Houses

the spiders from mars, space oddity

Vegetarians. I would have to play "Imagine" by John Lennon.

binary aliens from star trek next generation and i would play them "don't stop believin'" three times in a row.

I would love to see Aliens come to earth that have in their possession secret DNA that can heal the earth of global warming and save our planet from all of its ecological dangers. This DNA can be extracted from the aliens with their permission and used to save the Rainforests and everything endangered in our environment. A little of this potent DNA goes a long way! The first song I would play for them is "Imagine" by John Lennon.
