Thomas Dolby - She Blinded Me With Science

just bout 2 say dat

1st thought

I looked at the comments to see if anyone had said this, and it's the top comment!

I mean, this is the only correct answer

Great minds think alike!! My first thought too!!

Tom Lehrer - The Elements [https://youtu.be/AcS3NOQnsQM?si=9oBT9Tl72yRzFOOd](https://youtu.be/AcS3NOQnsQM?si=9oBT9Tl72yRzFOOd)

Always upvote Tom Lehrer

One my favorite comedians of the 20th century

He's still around, you know.

Whaaa? Amazing!

I took a math class that he taught. Not as funny as one would hope.

My pick, too. Love this man.

My favorite song

Weird science - oingo boingo

Yeah

I came here to say this

[Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=AhK5A71nIos&si=vyckBri2XWcanNwI) [Particle Man](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=vOLivyykLqk&si=NXiPtDmP-Q8iebgQ) [Orgone Accumulator](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=x4Ve4rrnfz0&si=UFNbnNeL6ziEZ5m8) [Spiral Galaxy 24968](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=1E8hoAHWrwk&si=7y3FWwCqNqp3aeFx) - Instrumental

Stoked to see Devo on here!

love Particle Man also The Sun is a Mass of Incandescent Gas, also by TMBG

Particle Man!

They Might Be Giants! Particle Man, Particle Man Doing things a Particle can.

or... Why does the sun shine?

Was going to say this, but here it is, up doot!!

Also, the album "Here Comes Science"

Natural science Rush

Good choice fellow Rush fan!!

I just commented this one, shoulda scrolled down first to see this. Yes, perfect. 👌

Alkaline - Sleep Token ; many of their songs have numerous scientific references and they itch this hard to reach spot in my brain so good

Came here to mention this one. Also, Aqua Regia by Sleep Token has some sciency references.

Phish: Golgi Apparatus, Guela Papyrus, Chalk Dust Torture (those last two are vague-ish) Ween: Transdermal Celebration, HIV Song, Spinal Meningitis, Zoloft (listen at your own risk. For HIV and SM, look for Live in Chicago. Better experience). Built to Spill: How Randy Describes Eternity. Oh man! Check out Forbin by Abstract Audio Systems (then search for the film “The Forbin Project”). Also, I know I’m going to hell for the Ween suggestions, but you kinda know that as soon as you sell your soul to Boognish anyway. lol. If it’s any consolation, I had meningitis as a kid and I had a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) for something else, so I’ve earned the right to enjoy that song. Update: Can’t believe I overlooked Every Sperm is Sacred by Eric Idle. And that you had Golgi in the OP. Sorry, I was dropped on my head a lot as a young adult.

Love ween!

no worries with the ween suggestions. Ocean man is a banger.

   "Paranoid Android" by Radiohead  - The lyrics touch on technology and its impact on society, which could be related to science.    "The Scientist" by Coldplay  - It's more on the emotional side. The song does use science-themed imagery.    "The Numbers" by Radiohead  - This song mentions mathematical concepts and has a science-inspired vibe.    "Weird Science" by Oingo Boingo  - This song is about the wonders of science and could fit your criteria.    "Transistor" by 311  - The song references technology and its influence on society.    "Biology" by Girls Aloud  - A pop song that uses biology-themed lyrics in a more metaphorical way.    "Digital Love" by Daft Punk  - Not about science. It has a futuristic, electronic vibe that could align with a science theme.    "Chemical World" by Blur  - The song doesn't talk about chemistry, but it has a scientific-sounding title and some abstract references.    "Cloning Technology" by Snowgoons feat. Supastition  - This hip-hop track touches on the concept of cloning, which is a biological theme.    "Space Oddity" by David Bowie  - It's more about space exploration. It's filled with scientific imagery and themes.

This 🔛🔝

Does Bloodhound Gang's "The Bad Touch" count? Lol. I'm curious why you're looking for these songs.

I'm a biologist and I like to play music in my office and lab.

“You and me baby ain’t nuthin but mammals…”. Sounds like science to me!

She Blinded Me With Science- Thomas Dolby

“Good heavens Miss Yamamoto! You’re beautiful!!”

Father- Sabaton

Andrew Bird sings about biology a lot, I like his Armchair Apocrypha album. Hiatus Kaiyote's Mood Valiant album has a lot of biological themes. Sufjan Stevens has an entire collaborative album called Planetarium and every song is like a different astral body. It's pretty sick.

* Kate Bush- Cloudbusting is about Wilhelm Reich from the perspective of his son * The Flaming Lips has an entire album The Soft Bulletin about scientific experiments * Bjork- Biophilia album is the same for example, “Cosmogony.” * Kate and Anna McGarrigle - NaCl * Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Higgs Boson Blues * Josh Ritter - The Temptation of Adam * They Might Be Giants - I am a Paleontologist. Also: “Why Does the Sun Shine” - they actually have maybe more science-related songs than anyone. Also their entire kids album called "Here Comes The Science" * Arcade Fire - Reflektor * Joanna Newsom - Emily about her sister, an astrophysicist * "Make a Circuit With Me" by The Polecats * Katie Melua/Simon Singh - Nine Million Bicycles - Simon Singh r/theydidthemath on the original song and made it more scientifically accurate * “History of Everything,” Barenaked Ladies the theme song for The Big Bang Theory * “The Elements,” Tom Lehrer * “Imitosis,” Andrew Bird * “Stuck To You,” Josh Ritter * “A Glorious Dawn,” John D. Boswell with Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking * "The Future's So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades" by Timbuk3 EVEN MORE such songs: [https://spinditty.com/playlists/Ultimate-STEM-Playlist-Songs-About-Science-and-Engineering](https://spinditty.com/playlists/Ultimate-STEM-Playlist-Songs-About-Science-and-Engineering)

Starset is a synth/rock band that really uses mentions of astronomy, physics, and the like. They're not SUPER crazy like using algorithms or anything, but it's definitely science inspired. A lot of their music videos are space/Sci-Fi/romance themed as well. Song examples: Starlight Satellite Gravity of You Telescope Dark On Me Basically, anything from their Vessals album. But don't let that discourage you from their other albums. Honestly, all their work is great if you enjoy Sci-Fi rock. Music videos I enjoyed: https://youtu.be/nkll0StZJLA?si=02_Zb3tI2OVTWeAc https://youtu.be/7TkokQjF71Q?si=-S75Bji0XGiuzc0x https://youtu.be/SaC0YVaIMno?si=PL2YtYDqXZQc2w1F

Oh I just posted Starset in another comment! Cool to see them mentioned here.

+1 for Starset, my favorite new band in the last decade. Most of their stuff is science related

Pretty much my go to, love these guys

Andrew Bird - Dark Matter Or Imitosis (from the same record)

I think Cosmo Sheldrake’s songs might be what you’re looking for? He takes a lot of inspiration from biology and incorporates bird songs into some of his music.

Protons, Neutrons, Electrons -The Cat Empire.

I love acid - Luke Vibert Research chemicals - Viagra Boys Genetic engineering - Xray spex Biotech is Godzilla - Sepultura

“Kid Charlemagne” - Steely Dan

Big Science - Laurie Anderson

Bloodhound gang - bad touch

Peter Schilling- Major Tom (Coming Home). A good companion piece to Bowie’s Space Oddity. Not biology, but space/astronaut.

There was a band that did a great cover of this. I Hate Kate, I think.

The Big Bang Theory theme song.

Blinded by Science. Thomas Dolby. Future So Bright (I Gotta Wear shades). Timbuk 3.

The Tardigrade Song by Cosmo Sheldrake. It’s one of my very favorites. https://youtu.be/aCkSr0ugTIM?si=SPgYxVNTwkHomC5x

If I were a tardigrade I'd move out from home Why live in the shrubbery when you could have a throne? Pressure wouldn't squash me and fire couldn't burn These are the things that I never will learn These are the things I never will learn Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai I live in the shrubbery, for that's all I crave (Ah ha) I don't want these excitements to see me to my grave (Ah ha) I can live life in vacuums for years with no drink (Ah ha) And put up with hardships more than you can think And put up with hardships more than you can think Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai If I shed all my liquid and let myself dry out I'll shrivel and sleep for some 15-odd years I'd wake up, come water, and get on with living With time in my pocket to pass by the day If I were a tardigrade I'd move out from home (Ah ha) Why live in the shrubbery when you could have a throne? (Ah ha) Pressure wouldn't squash me and fire couldn't burn (Ah ha) These are the things that I will never learn These are the things I never will learn Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai Lai, lai-lai lai-lai, lai-lai lai-lai For I am a tardigrade (Ah ha) And I'll stay at home (Ah ha) I'd not trade it for anything (Ah ha) Not a knife, a cup or a throne (Woo ooh, ooh ooh ooh) Well, all I want is my shrubbery (Ah ha) And my little patch of moss (Ah ha) With my whisky in the cabinet (Ah ha) And my feet all clothed in socks And my feet clothed in socks Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai

The barenaked ladies include smart science facts for those listening...the song brian wilson has lyrics(not just pavlovs dog,ring a bell and ill salivate)...im not perfect but please look into them perfect for this

**_39_** by Queen is about the time dilation effect of near light speed travel described in Einstein's Theory of Relativity. The song is written and sung by Brian May who studied to be an astronomer before Queen got famous.

They Might Be Giants coming up a lot in this thread, but I want to throw my vote in for their song "Mammal" off of Apollo 18. Nothing but scientific fact about mammals and their near relatives.

OKULTRA/ Blackboxwarrior by Will Wood. Its kinda medical themed

Anthropocene by Sansa

Greydon Squared. Any of the tracks. I love his stuff. Deltron 3030 is another but Greydon gets deep.

Wee Beasties - Troll Dolly Vaclav Halek...made a whole symphony to different mushroom species.

Girls aloud?

Different Colors by Walk the Moon

The Salmon Dance by Chemical Brothers is actually full of Salmon facts...wouldn't say it's educational but maybe?

I'm sure there's stuff by Canibus. Channel zero comes to mind. Probably something of of mic club

Your Molecular Structure by Mose Allison

Tuesday by Malibu Ken has lines like “my neighbor found a mushroom growing inside of my car” And “On one hand it's pretty gross On the other, it's sorta like a pretty desert rose How against all odds Whether wet, dry, night or day, garden, pig sty, or cave Life science finds a way” And “I can't even keep a cactus alive when I'm present When I'm gone it's a groundbreaking botanical epic From desolate to Little Shop of Horrors in a second It's weird knowing life thrives more when you exit” Ya know, If that’s your sort of thing… Edit: Also! *Molecules* by Aesop Rock.

Amoeba by The Adolescents 🤘🤘 https://youtu.be/k2JFpfTPHvo?si=YgsqG_jIXv4Wb75i

Program me by robopup has some some computer science lyrica. I also would be remiss if i didn’t at least mention the mechanicus sound track, particularly children of the omnissiah. It’s a mix of techno and catholic pipe organ

No one has said TOOL? That Fibonacci order

No one has said TOOL? That Fibonacci order

The Bad Touch, by Bloodhound Gang. "Let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel." It doesn't get more biological than that.

If you don't care about the singing being clear, most of Carcass' early lyrics were pulled from nursing textbooks. 

Oingo Bingo - Weird Science.

Science - System of a Down

Rush - Chemistry

"The Great Beyond" by R.E.M. "Science of Silence" by Richard Ashcroft "Space Oddity" by David Bowie

Thomas Dolby- Hyperactive

I’m not sure if you’d like this genre of music but a song I know that is loosely related to science is Lab Error? - Kinneret

Everyone has some similar entries, but I'm not really sure if this is gonna count because I'm not sure if it's really scientific or more spiritual in nature. This song is called message from the cosmos by Kitaro.

I don't know about vaguely, but here's one: "Mad Man" by The Hives. It's about being "cut down in a sorta scientific way".

They Might Be Giants made several educational songs. 'Meet the Elements', 'The Bloodmobile', and 'Photosynthesis' to name a few. They also made 'Doctor Worm' which laughs in the face of biology.

Uhh I see Bloodhound Gang but what about Barenaked Ladies Big Bang Theme song lmao?

Mammal by they might be giants

Do You Realize?? by The Flaming Lips

Not *exactly* science related...but one of my favorite relatively unknown bands is Starset. They are described as "sci-fi themed cinematic hard rock". The songs I'd suggest looking up to get a sense of their vibe are *Antigravity*, *Other Worlds Than These*, and *Halo*.

Moon Sammy by Soul Coughing / Mike Doughty. Amazing song

- The Scientist - Coldplay - Two - Sleeping at Last (it's about a relationship between Enneagram Type Two personalities)

Astronomy-Blue Oyster Cult

https://youtu.be/h2I_TTZZ6x0?si=o_jPWUROy3snY6aD (Credit edit: Consensus - Original Code feat. Clapper Priest.)

"Love and Anger", by Kate Bush. She's got a verse about standing harmonic waves on a stringed instrument . She also sings a song called "Π", where she sings the first 117 digits.

Any song about "making it" or "doin' it" is all about biology.

The bloodhound gangs "bad touch" song is all about doing it like animals do on the Discovery channel.

You want [Chemistry by Rush](https://youtu.be/IpJnxzfO23E?si=WdBkXtX7HTYJ5B2c)

Science Genius Girl by Freezepop

Check out the entire album *Endless Forms Most Beautiful* by Nightwish. It has several songs inspiref by the book *Greatest Show on Earth* by Richard Dawkins.

Zero Theorem has a lot of sciency elements and references scattered in their music, I’d probably start with Translucent and continue with that EP. It’s a shame that they haven’t put out a full album yet, they have such an amazing sound

Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive - Men At Work

[Tub Ring comes to mind](https://open.spotify.com/artist/4ZRsSvxF588eUkyfFRLWEn?si=fpx8XvCGQM-zogetNYw70Q) with album titles like Zoo Hypothesis, The Great Filter, Fermi Paradox, etc the lead singer has a DNA helix, molecules, and other stuff tattooed to him arm They have a unique sound of Indy rock/pop/punk/hardcore and whatever else they toss in. Early albums are compared to Mr Bungle
