skyesspot 0 #1 July 6, 2004 I need some help here people... The songs we offer at our DZ for the tandems to pick from are good skydiving songs, but they are all OLD!!! We have lots of Tom Petty and Aerosmith, and of course 3 Doors Down. The problem is that the last time there were any updates was probably a few years ago. Can you guys give me some ideas?? I'm already thinking "It's Raining Men" will be one of them. Life is too short. Don't sweat the small stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dougiefresh 0 #4 July 6, 2004 "Space Walk" by Lemon Jelly. Starts off real chill, just a guy talking about a space walk, perfect for the "gearing up" parts of tandem vids, then he steps outside and it jams out. "That's beautiful, beautiful. Just beautiful. That's tremendous. Zero G's and I feel fine." "God Put a Smile On Your Face" by Coldplay. I'll keep thinking...Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. --Douglas Adams Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymut 0 #5 July 6, 2004 From waaaaayyy back in 1987, The Cars had a song on their last album titled 'Strap Me in'. Seems appropriate Of course, you seem to be looking for newer stuff....hmmmm How about 'Falling Away From Me' by Korn - not that that's what a tandem master wants to see from his passenger Let me think....

lawrocket 3 #12 July 6, 2004 How about "Fall Down" by Toad the Wet Sprocket? It's not about skydiving but the words can seem relevant, or even ironic to a whuffo. ***She said "I'm fine, I'm okay" Cover up your trembling hands There's indecision when you know you ain't got nothing left When the good times never stay And the cheap thrills always seem to fade away When will we fall When will we fall down Jump back, gotta get out of here Been too, too long this time Jump back, gotta get out of here When will, when will we fall down She hates her life, she hates her skin She even hates her friends Tries to hold on to all the reputations she can't mend And there's some chance we could fail But the last time, someone's always there for bail When will we fall When will we fall down Jump back, gotta get out of here Been too, too long this time Jump back, gotta get out of here When will, when will we fall down When will we, when will we fall down When will we fall She said "I'm fine, I'm okay" Cover up your trembling hands There's indecision when you know you ain't got nothing left For the last time conscience calls For a good friend, I was never there at all When will we fall When will we fall down Jump back, gotta get out of here Been too, too long this time Jump back, gotta get out of here When will, when will we fall down When will we, when will we fall down When will we fall My wife is hotter than your wife.

SpeedRacer 1 #14 July 6, 2004 Never did a tandem. But when I did my AFF, they never asked me about music for the videos. They didn't use any actual song on my videos, they just used this lame, canned rock-guitar rift, which they probably bought from some commercial soundtrack company or something. But if I had my choice I would use One of These Days by Pink Floyd. Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it legal? Have we discussed this before and I should search? Not trying to stir the pot, but I am curious..... answered my own questionI promise not to TP Davis under canopy..
