Tough one, Dave! This is one of those one that Google-Assisted-Memory can't help with. I actually had to browse through my library and find some that fit, based on what I could remember of the song. I'm sure I missed a bunch because of that, but here's a couple that came to mind.
S....P....A....M.....spam!
Quite possibly one of their most annoying songs ever, but it fits the bill.
And because I blanked out on more tunes, here's one whose only connection to this mp3eme is that they use the word "spell" in it, but in an entirely different meaning. Oh, yeah, and they say the name "Lee" a total of 73 times in the song. (I counted.) Pretty talented for a 64-second song!

Ok, it's a little bit of a tenuous link, but it's also a Monday when I'm posting this, so I'll count it.*

You have to listen to the lyrics to fully get the mp3eme connection, but I think it's worth it.
A bit of trivia - the narration part in this song is done by Mark Z. Danielewski, author of House of Leaves
and brother of Poe (Ann Danielewski). Both Poe and Danielewski
reference each others' works heavily in their own work, and Poe has
described her album Haunted and her brother's book as "parallax views of the same story".
Dave, we're looking for you...and we'll go to the ends of the earth to find you. Okay, maybe not that far, but if need be I can drive up to Raleigh to seek you out!
Let's start things off big...and you can't have anything bigger than games without frontiers!
And in honor of my wife, who braved the rain to go to a high school football game tonight....
For some people, jumping someone else's train seems to be the only game in town (man, I should have put this on the Calliope, too!)
I think it's about time to stop this game. I'm sure you're ready for me to stop, too.

Uh yes, I know this is last week's mp3eme. I claim an extension...because...I was busy working....yeah...
Anyway, I'm in the middle of re-rating some tracks in my library and came across one that I hadn't heard in a long time. It is definitely one of the more interesting tracks by Seven Mary Three. It's not in their typical style, but I enjoy it. The drum backbeat provides a nice counterpoint to the lyrics and the feeling of futility they seem to generate. I give it 4 stars (out of 5) in my book. If I had a book.

I missed last week's mp3eme but found the perfect song that goes for both this week's and last week's mp3emes.
Normally I think The Bloodhound Gang is a little overproduced for the amount of quality content they actually have in their songs, but this one always brought a smile to my face when I heard it. And it fits both mp3emes!

I'll try to avoid stepping on anyone's toes here today by posting some tunes people may not think of immediately when the harmonica is brought up (or at least, tunes people may not think to POST immediately when the harmonica is brought up).
First, it's damn hard to have a good blues band without a harp player:
Next, the song that made me buy my first Aerosmith album, way back when. Unfortunately, I've since lost my copy of it, but I've recovered the track via Big Ones:

And finally, one that already made it into my Vox collection via a Calliope No. 8 post, here. That Mary Jane sure can dance...and I think it's due to the harmonica...
I tried to keep the number of tracks I'm posting for this mp3eme down this week, so no Electric Slide, thank you very much.
However, in its place, I do have a few tunes for you....feel the power...
I've always like this tune...glad I could finally use it for a mp3eme.
Not my favorite tune off the album, but a little Luscious Jackson goes a long way towards making my day a good one.
Finally, a double-shot of Bad Religion to power down by...the first is an obvious fit - the second one takes a little listening to the lyrics to get how the power theme fits in...

First, count to 30 with me....I know you can!
Slightly longer in duration, 2000 light years is a LOT longer in distance:
And then, my piece de resistance, a song that not only references a number(ed century), but brings it all back to the "digital"....
