Last week's Inquirer "top whatever" list was The INQUIRER Top 12 Songs About Technology. Now, with a topic like that, there's bound to be something that might give Doug a power, right?
Well, maybe. Discounting the purposeful mondegreen, the songs with dangerous or nonsensical lyrics, and the Neil Young song, the list gets much shorter. Here's what I came up with for powers from the two that were left:
Are Friends Electric?, Gary Numan (lyrics) - disables any self-aware robot in the area of effect. (One that Noah would not have let Doug play while he was visiting Stellvia, even if it wasn't a power song...)
Digital Man, Rush (lyrics) - gives him a robot-like body with every sensor he can imagine and a force field, but also makes him even more impulsive than normal and easier to track.

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
