Unoriginal Soundtracks #110: Alphabear

Every other Friday, I share a playlist of songs tangentially related to a single game or series. Songs about alien sex for Mass Effect, world leaders for Civilization, and so on. Make requests to @USPodcast on Twitter.

You may have noticed people sharing pictures of cartoon bears and mad libs recently. Childish as that feature may be, the mobile game responsible is a fun word puzzle that's well worth trying. Alphabear inspires this playlist of rap, ska, and IDM.

Tracklist
Alphabet Aerobics -- Blackalicious
The Bear and the Maiden Fair -- The Hold Steady
Really Free [Live on the Old Grey Whistle Test] -- Otway and Barrett
Got Your Money -- Kelis
Honey Bee (Let's Fly to Mars) -- Grinderman
Missing Words -- The Selecter
Every Day -- AFX
Relatively Easy -- Jason Isbell
(Opening theme contains elements of Completely Unoriginal by the Bee Gees, Soundtracks And Come Backs by GoldFish, and This Podcast Contains Spoilers.)
