I'm looking for music that was derived from George Orwell's 1984. I'm trying to find enough songs to fill a whole mix cd.
So far I got:

Radiohead: 2+2=5
David Bowie: 1984
David Bowie: Big Brother

If anyone can find anymore examples that would really help a lot. Also any discussion is welcomed.

How about 'every breath you take' by The Police?

Just thought of another, bit tenuous though - Babylon System by Bob Marley and the Wailers

Think it was called thought or sex crime 1984 by the Eurythmics. If memory allows i think Dave Stewart composed a whole album to go with the movie release of the same year 1984. Do not know if the film was any good it seems to be unheard of nowadays.
