Weird science: songs for the human/pig hybrids of the near future

6 June 2016

So you're the human-hog hybrid scientists assured us wouldn't happen? So what.

Yes, it's a terrible accident. Yes, some people say you're an abomination against nature. Yes, it's really hard to take selfies with trotters. It's a rough world out there and you definitely have the deck stacked against you.

But people saying 'no' definitely isn't how we got into this situation in the first place and we're here to help you power through it, with the finest pop playlist for the interspecies chimera experiment that got fully out of hand. Remember, you're an extraordinary pioneering science project, which has to be better than a mistake round the back of a pub like half the rest of us.

Fire up your Discpig and get ready to rock until you trot, pig-human hybrid; this one's for you.

Truly, no one can escape their biology. Least of all if it's been gene-spliced together by scientists.

Dusky - Ingrid Is A Hybrid

Ingrid sounds amazing and so do you, human-pig person.

Ok, ok. We understand that this is kind of upsetting.

But basically this is a song about how Nick Jonas prefers going out with you more than anyone else. Waking up to you. It's a lovely thing.

It's in his DNA. And yours. Which might be his, if he needed an organ for some reason. Oh god, we've messed up.

99 Souls - The Girl Is Mine

Ok, this is safer - 99 Souls took two songs and mashed together their essential structures to make something cooler. Just like you, human-pig person of the near future!

Yes, it's been about five years since mashups were truly cool but that means it's only another five years until they're vintage. You're a classic, human-pig hybrid, trot on you legend.
