Beat me to it. I scrolled back just to post this and... Here you are.
βGod DAMmit.β
4'33" by John Cage repeated 15 times.
The audience HAS to actively listen to it? Like no talking over it and no interrupting with other noise?
I like this. Finally some peace and quiet.
Ohh yeah, they make one noise and we start again, I want half an hour minimum of silence from everyone, maybe they might look inside themselves and find the good person they're hiding or I'll get to not listen to people talk. Win win.
This is it. The day has come. This is my chance to rickroll the entire world in one go.
Ooh! Ooh! Combine this with the John Cage! Play 4'33" fourteen times, then Astley for the 15th track.
What's New Pussycat on repeat, with an It's Not Unusual thrown in sporadically
Reference: https://youtu.be/Tv1l1eUhN-E
Everybody Wants to Rule the World by Tears for Fears repeated 14 times, with 1000 Miles by Vanessa Carlton tossed in once somewhere in the middle.
I imagine theyβd feel like they were babysitting their good friend who was blackout drunk but still conscious and who said that βEverybody Wants to Rule the Worldβ was a song that never fails to calm them down. All the while, theyβd occasionally remember the feeling that they were doing a good thing by making sure their friend didnβt choke on their own vomit that kept reappearing every hour or so.
I'll share my favourites for when I need to calm the fuck down:

Congrats you have mental illness now.
For maximum hair-tearing insufferableness?
Baby Shark x14
My Pal Foot Foot x1
There's a mall up in Montreal, Canada, playing babyshark on repeat in stairwells to prevent homeless people from staying there. So far it's been cruelly effective.
Egad, I read about that but forgot. Now that you mention, I'm sure that's how the idea popped in my head. How awful π Now I almost feel bad for joking about it.
You're a monster, but I think you knew that. ha

Because I'm currently putting some effort to advance a story I'm working on and I have a playlist for miid setting, that would be it.
And it's mostly reggae, from the more classical to present day creation.
15 different versions of Baby Shark that my daughter has on repeat.
I imagine the world would react negatively.
Reggaeton
I listen to prog, so it'd be a looong playlist
I'm all for it!
Give us a taste of what would be on your list.
Dream Theater-A Change of Seasons
King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard-Crumbling Castle
Emerson, Lake, and Palmer-Karn Evil 9
Alan Parsons Project-Sirius/Eye in the Sky
Van Der Graff Generator-A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers
The Mars Volta-Haunt of Roulette Dares
While generally not considered a "prog band", I'll include this one as a bonus just because I had it going through my head the entire time I was compiling this list: Deep Purple-Child In Time

Ram Ranch in the top 15 languages of the world
Ram ranch, two trucks, alternating 7 times and then Aliceβs restaurant once.
I believe this would result in a lot of mental breakdowns, and a newfound love of Arlo Guthrie.
Father rapers!

Oh my, it's melodeath day π€
They'd think I came from an alternate universe. Video game soundtracks and some songs I made alongside some lostwave. The video game songs don't sound like they're from a game, and the rest are things they'd be unfamiliar with.
The album World Music Radio, by Jon Batiste
Probably the Book of Mormon original Broadway cast recording. But I'd have to cut out 1 song, that'd be difficult to choose which one.
Because I wouldn't want people to kill me after the 24 hours is over... I would go with the Pink Floyd album, Meddle, mostly for Echoes (six tracks). Then the Jean-Michel Jarre album, Oxygène (another six). Then some good trip-hop tracks for something to move to.
Maybe Supreme Beings of Leisure, Ghetto. Moloko, Fun for Me. Morcheeba, Blood Like Lemonade.
Don't know how they'd react, but here's the list I'd go with based on what I've been recently addicted to:
Escape Route by Free The Jester
Tongue Tied by Free The Jester
Shapeshifter by Nothing Shameful
Selkirk by Nothing Shameful
And probably one more to round it off:
Casulty by The Nixon Rodeo.
If people aren't a fan of small no-name bands, they might not like these talented groups and their songs, but I'm sure there are people out there who would absolutely love these indie(?) selections. I swear small no-name unrecognized bands have some of the best music.
Wait a minute. Is the lead vocals of Free The Jester the same Lead Singer of Not Green Day?
No clue. Would have to look it up, which I'm gonna do because you got me curious.
Edit:
From a quick search, definitely seems like they might be. Never heard of Not Green Day, though. Crazy stuff if it's true.
I highly recommend going to see Not.GreenDay if they have a show near you. I saw them this year and they definitely sound like the OG GreenDay. They also did a good job of getting the crowd involved and in high spirits.

I think we could all chill
Allan Holdsworth
Merzbow - Pulse Demon
we luv lama 24 hours version
i only need 1: Raining Tacos by Perry Gripp.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon soundtracks.
My playlist will be the album Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band. In fact, maybe I'll just select my three favorites from that album, Ella Guru, Frownland, and Veterans' Day Poppy, and repeat them five times.
I'm in the mood to fuckin' piss some people off.
I'd love it but be annoyed that you didn't go for the whole thing, start to finish.
