funks 1 #8 May 4, 2005 a little off the wall but there is a song by prodigy with the first words of the song being something like "cause this is dangerous" not sure what the name of the song is but it was put on a buddys tandem video and sounded awesome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skolls081102 0 #9 May 4, 2005 Quote"Learning to Fly" also Tom Petty. Did Tom Petty really have a song called Learning to Fly? I know that's the title of a great Pink Floyd song, I just never heard Tom Petty do it.... The sole intention, is learning to fly.Condition grounded, but determined to try.Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies.Tongue tied and twisted, just an Earth bound misfit.
