Below are a few songs that are somehow related to the Phone Losers of America. For more music like this, visit RBCP’s music page, Trevelyn’s music page and Rob T Firefly’s audio page.

	Track 01: Guilty Deter This is the first official song ever recorded for the PLA, if you don’t include our old 90′s dance mixes. RBCP wrote the lyrics to this song in January 2005 and included them in UPL issue #29. Shortly after the issue of UPL was released, Rob T. Firefly released this version of the song. The song is about a 17-year-old character named Deter who wants to be a phone phreak but his conscience keeps interfering with his ideas. (You might remember a guy named Deter from a few of the old PLA issues.) This song is a parody of Guilty Conscience by Eminem and Dr. Dre. Listen to more from Rob T. Firefly at his home page, his music page and his Myspace.
	Track02: What’s The Difference? This song was included in PLA Radio Episode #3, which was released on February 25th, 2006. The episode revolved around all the fun you could have with Deaf Relay Operators. The lyrics were written by RBCP and the song was performed by a deaf relay operator. It’s a parody of the song called What’s The Difference by Dr. Dre.
	Track 03: RBCP on PLA Radio Trevelyn, also known as DJ Boo, wrote this song for PLA Radio where it’s occasionally used as an introduction for the show. Trevelyn has written a lot of phone-related songs and has been featured on Hacker Public Radio. Visit Trevelyn’s page of music and his Myspace.
	Track 04: linear This song was written by both linear and RBCP, each writing most of their own parts of the song. It was written in the early 2000′s, then finished up by RBCP and published in UPL issue #29 in January 2005. RBCP recorded the song in July 2006, playing both the part of linear and RBCP. It was featured in PLA Radio Episode #10 on July 22nd, 2006.
	Track 05: PLA Radio Cactus Intro This song is usually played at the beginning of episodes of PLA Radio and was originally played in the May 14th, 2006 episode. The original song is called Squeeze 1st Jay-Z. The various people saying “Cactus” are professional voice artists that RBCP tricked into sending sample work to him.
	Track 06: Mildred Monday This song was written by RBCP in 1997 and performed by RBCP on episode #16 of PLA Radio on March 15th, 2008. It features some classic old-school PLA characters, such as Dino Allsman, Jim Bayless and Mildred Monday. It’s a parody of a 1980′s song called Manic Monday by The Bangles. You can learn more about Mildred Monday by visiting our tribute page.
	Track 07: Blackhat Life This song isn’t exactly a PLA song, but a mention of PLA Radio is included in it so I’m listing it here. It’s written by Trevelyn and was first played on episode #16 of PLA Radio. Visit Trevelyn’s page of phone music and his Myspace.
	Track 08: Introduction to HOPE 2008 This song was played at the beginning of the PLA panel at the 2008 Hackers on Planet Earth convention. It was written and performed by RBCP, and inspired by an idea of Sidepockets. It is a parody of Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up, or as most people these days know it, the Rickroll. You can watch the accompanying video here. And you can watch a short video of the PLA Panel, including parts of this video, here.
	Track 09: Monday by gnnr This is a tribute song by gnnr, written shortly after we learned about Mildred Monday’s death. It’s a parody of the 1960′s song Yesterday by The Beatles. You can learn more about Mildred Monday by visiting our tribute page.
	Track 10: Play The Game by RBCP This song is about the most famous superhacker on the interwebs, Curtis Lee Jones. Clips are taken from the dozens of prank phone calls featuring Curtis, which can be found on the CLJ Multimedia Fun Page for Kids.
	Track 11: Ode to PLA Forums by Trevelyn All of the nonsense that you find on the PLA Forums is summed up in this song by Trevelyn (aka DJ Boo).
	Track 12: Bell Odyssey by Rob T Firefly The sad tale of a Bell lineman named Bob, going about his daily duties, which include losing his shoe while on a telephone pole and discovering a rewired phone box. This song was written by RBCP and published in PLA Issue #39 on July 27, 1996. Thirteen years later, Rob T Firefly recorded this song.
	Track 13: Grouchy Old Man by tabachi This is a mix by tabachi that has a lot of clips from the Grouchy Old Man episode of PLA Radio.
