MORE COWBELL!!

If the Woot-Off were a musical genre, it would be like Glee, because it's not a genre, but a mis-mash of recycled memories and giant plot holes that somehow we all love and is gangbusters with the critics.

Wootstep

Bollywood musical. Clearly.

It would be plodding classical strings interspersed with Bars of Chords.

It would be like Dubstep, because it takes forever for the awesome stuff to drop, but when it does... It's gone far too fast.

woot-offs are like classic broadway musicals.

they start off with a crazy, over-the-top group number featuring great deals on things you never knew you needed or wanted. but then the music changes, and the evil roomba comes in and demands your attention courtesy of his $800 knife set, holding the poor woot-off captive for hours. when it seems that all hope is lost, the shirt.woot reckoning intermission arrives to provide another hour or so of respite, and the audience is lulled into a forgetful state in which they stop dreaming that their b.a.g. o.f. c.r.a.p. will soon arrive.

at that precise moment, the trumpets sound, and the elusive prize appears on the scene. the cast, crew, and audience make a mad dash to stuff one into their carts, but only the true stars succeed.

after a short time, the lights dim once more, and the wooters are left to contemplate a few sansas and art sets while imagining what could have been. and then, as the saying goes, it's all over when the caped monkey flies.

the end.

Ethel Merman Medley of Broadway Hits from Yesteryear!

Woot-Offs are definitely Nerdcore

Oh golly! I've gotta say ACCORDION! Fly magic fingers fl!

Slam dancing punk rock.

Easy listening, obviously...

Every time a new woot-off comes up you say, "Ah, ok." and then you can't wait for it to end so you can get to the next in the playlist...

They're like the song that never ends, except that they eventually do end after a day or 2 or 3.

Def Polka!

Polka. Duh-uh.

Woot-Off the Musical would be eclectic, allowing for all manner of apropos tunes. Right now I'm hearing "You Can't Always Get What You Want" by the Rolling Stones in my head.

"Weird Al" Yankovic. Absolutely. No question.

Mesmerizing elevator music....

Hillbilly Classical

It's like the dull hum of a broken amp. I guess that would be drone genre, it just goes on and on.

I am torn between the comparisons to Glee and the classic Broadway musical... Since most of the really cool stuff in the Woot-off is usually refurbished, wouldn't that actually make it a classical Broadway musical performed by the cast of Glee?

BINGO!!!

It would have to be the backwoods classic, Turkey in the Straw. Obviously.

The WOOT-OFF theme:
A classical music symphonic tone poem in hundreds of movements (one for each product) that range from an incredibly short 11 seconds to an annoyingly slow 110 minutes, in tempos from adagissimo to zelosamente and everywhere sporadically in between, featuring every form of musical instrument from the obsolete hollow log to mundane orchestral standards to the avant-garde geeky mellowness of electronic synthesizers, alternating with mixed choruses and clever combinations of strings and brass and woodwinds as it switches between solo melodies and vast symphonic arrangements of wide ranging atonal or harmonic mixes of recognizable and questionable notes and chord, with its rhythmic appeal stretching from the childish foolishness of kids.woot! to the snobbish foolery of wine.woot! (accented occasionally by the barely audible comments buzzed from frustrated Wooters) to make it rife with diverse solo melodies as well as repetitive choruses and half-remembered ear worms, yet boasting no standard theme or consistent tune except it could start and/or end with surprised screaming monkeys.

Battle of the Divas

Obviously some kind of cacophonic crap!

I think it's sung to the theme of The Love Boat...

To borrow from the late, beloved guitarist Michael Hedges, Heavy Mental.

Woot-off musical genre clearly should be in the style of 'They Might Be Giants'.

It would be a Frippertronics album "B" side.

Woot would be an indie rock band that became popular enough to get a corporate sponsor, and now their old fans think they've sold out.

I'm voting a Weird Al polka, it's the first thing I thought of - just a totally inappropriate medley that makes you want to dance crazy dances.
