Comment:

Assembled by searching AMG by title words and matching to songs in my collection - curious that, apparently, either people aren't writing as many "science" songs as they used to or I'm not buying them (quite a proportion of older tracks here).

Nice! You should definately check out
"Chemical Calisthenics" on Blazing Arrow by Blackalicious (2002) - also if you have "for science" you've probably heard "See the Constellation" on Apollo 18. Actually, I guess there are a lot of TMBG songs that are sciency...

Hey, thanks for the suggestions on "science" songs - if I do a sequel, I'll know where to look!
