Hello. Dylan here. This is all my fault. :)

The song that I think would compile with the fewest changes to the language spec is Scorpions' "Rock You Like A Hurricane". I don't think it'd reveal any hidden meaning or anything, though... it's really just a long list of assignment statements. You need to spell 'Night' on line 2 with a capital 'N'; same with 'What' on line 4, and some liberal use of parentheses, but the first four lines do actually compile:

It's early morning, the sun comes out

Last Night was shaking and pretty loud

My cat is purring, it scratches my skin

So What is wrong (with another sin)?

The rest is, um, work in progress. And it may not be a coincidence that the stack push/pop operators in Rockstar are called "rock" and "roll", and the syntax was designed so that "rock you like a hurricane" is syntactically valid Rockstar code.

The songs would not have to do anything useful, the important point is that they are syntactically valid.
