I’m hosting a jellyfish themed party and want to set the vibes. If you were a jellyfish, what songs would be on your fave playlist? Give me your bloopiest tunes! -🪼

    Dick Dale era surf guitar (someone else mentioned this as well, adding the best artist name). Dick Dale also did a cover of Claude Debussy’s “The Aquarium” which is the sound track for Space Mountain at Disneyland/World. So either or both, and there might be other covers of “The Aquarium” out there if the original isn’t too slow.

    Going more ocean-themed…

    Aquabats or Tsunami Bomb for some early 2000s punk/ska that isn’t ocean-themed but the bands are kinda.

    Tide is High - Blondie

    Scuba Diver - King Kong (it’s a weird song, but hypnotic)

    Where is My Mind - Pixies (about fish, but close enough)

    Beyond the Sea by Bobby Darin

    Maybe more sailing themed, but that’s close, right?

    Brandy by Looking Glass

    My Heart Will Go On - there’s a Dragonforce metal cover of this if you’ve been traumatized by the pennywhistle.

    Come Sail Away - Styx

      Sail away sounds nautical but it’s about an alien abduction. Jelly fish are pretty alien though so I reckon it counts.
