I'm out of the loop, what do you kids listen to nowadays?
What would make a good accordion song?

Some more "conventional" suggestions might be songs by the Decemberists and They Might Be Giants, as both of those bands actually use accordions :)
I wish i liked the Decemberists, and I feel like i should but they just haven't clicked with me yet. I have particle man pretty much down (that's an easier one), I am working on "Museum of Idiots".
is it possible to play the music that plays in the Ducktales videogame where they are on the moon?
some say the devil is dead
bound for south australia!
THese are good ones, I'm pretty sure i can pull of the second too, but trip to durrow is sort of wavery and complicated. I could do a half-assed version of it and call it Trip to Scurrow. I feel like i do need to learn some traditional folk music just because.

I wouldn't mind hearing the Levan Polka done on accordion though

"We Didn't Start the Fire"--Billy Joel
"The Ride of the Valkyries"--Wagner (Methinks this one would sound particularly cool)
Anything by Johnathon Coulton is going to be a crowd-pleaser, especially if that crowd is nerds.
Maxwell's Silver Hammer.
Weezer songs seem to adapt well to that sort of sound.

Hocus Pocus might be cool, but you might need a drummer to get the full effect.
Seven Seas of Rhye.
I think that's it for now.
