Songs I swear the muppets should/could have done...

[acroyear]

...had the show continued into the 80s...

• Talking Heads: Once in a Lifetime
• B-52: pretty much ANYTHING, but particularly Rock Lobster, Channel Z, Roam, Love Shack
  
• Bangles: Walk like an Egyptian
  
• Bon Jovi: Wanted Dead or Alive
• Dire Straits: Money for Nothing
• Edie Brickell: What I Am
• Huey Lewis: pretty much anything
• Human League: wouldn't the irony of having one of their monsters sing "Human" be excellent?
• Madness: House of Fun or Our House
• Bobby McFerrin: (song that will not be named)
• Men At Work: Dr. Heckyll & Mr. Jive, and Who can it be now
• Rod Stewart: Love Touch (maybe some weird Midas touch where some muppet turns the others into shades of pink?)
• Thompson Twins: Doctor Doctor

any others?

update: two more came to mind

• Re-Flex: The Politics of Dancing (imagine a bunch of tie-n-coat pigs with "vote for me buttons" suddenly breaking out in song)
• Madonna: La Isla Bonita - A great one for Miss Piggy trying to be all romantic and serious, but kermit comes out with the maracas and keeps trying to make it upbeat...
