Why: I believe she's on the show to plug 'Camping,' and Wu-Tang's sample of this song on their track "Campfire" brought me here ("Out of nowhere, there came a caravan/This was around a campfire light/A lovely woman in motion/Her hair was as dark, as the night")

Joel McHale Mudhoney's "Touch Me I'm Sick" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nGsT_qFMBs REASON: As I've said in previous appearances from McHale, many of us in the Pacific Northwest remember McHale when he was in ALMOST LIVE, Seattle's version of SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE. The show introduced us to Bill Nye long before he became the science guy, thus I offer a song by the Seattle grunge band that should've made it further than Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains and everyone else. You can either do the first verse: "I've been bad I've been worse I'm a creep, yeah and I'm a jerk touch me I'm sick"
Or the chorus: "Come on baby, now, come with me If you don't come If you don't come If you don't come You'll die alone"
Michael Che The Young Fresh Fellows' "Young Fresh Fellows Update (Theme)" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sOrTGl0OHE REASON: The Young Fresh Fellows were the Seattle band in the 1980's many were hoping would become the next big thing for the city but back then, no one paid attention to Seattle. Nonetheless, they made tons of records and this was one of them.
Thus, this show would be represented by the 206. I know Che has no connection with Seattle but I want to make the connection since McHale is from up the I-90.

Claire Danes The Center For Disease Control Boys' "We're The Center For Disease Control Boys" https://youtu.be/iY4iEEWb7c8?t=3m12s REASON: She is in A KID LIKE JAKE and this is the song I thought of. The Center For Disease Control Boys were a Seattle country group and they released one record as part of the Reagan era. It is of note because Chris Cornell of Soundgarden was a special guest in the song, performing as "Jake", thus it would be his verse you'd be singing:
"Well, my names Jake (HOWDY, JAKE!) I go to work, for crissakes but while I'm workin, I hope Jesus ain't watchin' 'Cause I take monkeys from the zoo They look a lot like me and you and then I shoot 'em full of lethal toxins"
Also, the guy who is at 1:53 is the late Ben McMillan, singer for Skin Yard and Gruntruck. Skin Yard should have been the next "it" band of Seattle, partly because Jack Endino was also their guitarist and while they were popular in the underground, they never made it big. Daniel House of C/Z Records was a member of Skin Yard and C/Z was Chris Hanszek's label before giving it to House. At this point, discussion about Skin Yard becomes incestuous so I'll stop.
Letitia Wright Reba McEntire's "My Sister" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9ljFRnTzpA REASON: Wright is the sister of T'Challa but is here to represent her own. I realize suggesting a Reba song may be like "wait: Reba?" but I figure sisterly love is sisterly love, and Reba is hot. YEAH, I SAID IT!!! Thus, why not? Lyrics are lyrics, doesn't matter what the assigned genre is.

Tina Fey Julie Brown's "Girl Fight Tonight" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVie2K-mMtc REASON: Julie Brown was *the* Julie Brown in the mid-80's for MTV before British "doodle doodle dee, wubba wubba wubba" Julie Brown took over and the network now had two Julie Brown's. Anyway, Julie Brown made her share of records, all on the humorous side. This is from her TRAPPED IN THE BODY OF A WHITE GIRL album.
Evan Rachel Wood Boney M's "Going Back West" https://youtu.be/1o-IlkdTph0?t=1m11s REASON: We did Village People's "Go West" before, right? (Looking back: yes: September 30, 2016 for James Marsden.) Anyway, I chose something else and decided to go towards the Boney M path.
Totally unrelated but... Note: An old friend started a band where they did a terrible version of this: Prayers - West End Girls : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeNtIcKJ-A0
Why: I'm throwing a weird one in here, but there's a lot of material to draw from this expectedly wildly all over the place track. The reference being, of course, that none of the characters in 'Westworld' knew they were robots.

Ralph Macchio Pretenders' "Kid" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbC8JltxSq8 REASON: Many roles known for but KARATE KID la la la. I realize he's 56 and he is far from a kid but many will known him forever as "the other kid" (Prince, of course, being "The Kid", nudge nudge.)
