Maybe it should, but this isn't a top 31 list. It's my list. And I'm doing it chronologically this time.

Holy crap. I had no idea. That's really touching.
But since we've all heard it, still no need for it when there are so many others.

Thanks.Some kind of Röyksopp mixtape
The the Profound Mysteries trilogy release from 2022 was “reimagined” as the Nebelous Nights release in 2024
True Electric takes it one step further with 19 tracks from their entire catalog. Heres the blurb on their website
“Announcing the «True Electric» album, which consists of 19 recordings and renditions, meant to capture the essence of our live shows bearing the same name. The idea was to put an emphasis on the clubbier aspects of our music, as well as returning to our roots within the realms of electronic music.”
– Señors B+B.
Röyksopp introduce the True Electric album project with ‘What Else Is There?’ [True Electric], a pulsating, intense new version of their classic track featuring vocals from Fever Ray. A high-energy visualiser edit for the single, recorded at Release, Athens, directed by Stian Andersen, and featuring the trusted True Electric dance troupe of mikey boats, Robia Milliner and Megan Westpfel is live now on the Royksopp YouTube.”

Now that could have been a good theme.
“Mandatory participatory songs” or something along those lines.

Honestly, there are a few artists (a bit deeper on my 'short' list) that would be more likely for be to do without the expectation of the best known song being there. Perhaps the answer is to but it at #31 and move on, though I can't fault the idea of not including something like that at all. We've certainly had some M-AD lists where the presenter chose to focus on a certain time period of the artist, or decided to focus more on songs they liked that weren't the "big" hits.
My first thought is that would lean heavily towards jock jams and national anthems. But I'm not fully awake yet, so I'm plausibly forgetting a big category.

When I saw Galactic recently at Asbury Lanes, Anjelica "Jelly" Joseph was the vocalist. She's similar in style and sound to Irma Thomas.

Jock jams for sure, but don’t forget the various line dancing type songs. Macarena, Ride the train, YMCA… etc.

Cringe-y YouTube videos of people dancing to those required, such as this.

Thank you for reading my post to the bottom. I thought "era defining one hit wonder" was too good of a label to quibble about the details.

That's a bit more where my mind was going. "Those" songs that when they come on, people try to pull you out to dance (worse if it is a coordinated dance) or look at you like a weirdo if you aren't singing along. Like Sweet Caroline, the worst offenders are ones that are everywhere. Electric Slide is one thing, but that it's not YMCA level that is also played at sporting events and other places.

ditkaburgers' friend was sick and bailed on her so she called Dear Old Dad from the bullpen to go see a show tonight in Oakland. It was another one of her young English boys but this one, Newcastle's Sam Fender gets about as close to Classic Rock as ditkaburgers gets. Fender's sound is influenced by Springsteen and the Killers and comes off a bit like a poppier War on Drugs at times. He's playing Coachella tomorrow night.
It was a fun show with a good crowd but now I have to wear off the post-concert energy.

I randomly had this pop up as a Spotify suggestion a few weeks ago and I liked it - not something I’d throw on a lot but I agree it was more indie pop than boyband sounding.ditkaburgers' friend was sick and bailed on her so she called Dear Old Dad from the bullpen to go see a show tonight in Oakland.

Listened this morning. Really good stuff.
Made me throw on “The Other Side of Midnight: Live in New Orleans”.
Saw these guys in the 90s a few times and again in 2023 - so much fun live. They’ve always rotated in different vocalists.
