I'm not going to say CTU could die if you fail to find this, but actually it will (LK just doesn't want me to explain why just yet and pretend everything will be okay).
I need a song, WITH WORDS, that is free to use... REALLY Free to Use, not fuck Copyright violation style free to use. The band will have to give their permission - for real, not presumed - either knowingly, or already have by giving open carte blanche in open writing, that their song can be used for free in a production. We're looking for a pop song, something possibly in the vein of Thriller, but it definitely has to be upbeat. Here's the ultimate kicker, the song has to actually be good despite the fact it's free to use.
Other steps will have be taken to avert disaster even if this one is met, but other steps don't even need to be considered unless the first stepping stone can be reached.
