rugburn 0 #1 November 19, 2003 Well I wanted to make a CD of skydiving related songs that I can listen to while I drive to the DZ. Any songs that mention flying, jumping, or personal reasons for jumping are welcome. Here are a few to start off the list: Third Eye Blind - Jumper P.O.D. - Alive Bon Jovi - Its My Life R. Kelly - I Believe I Can Fly -------- I am ready to meet my maker. Whether my maker is prepared for the ordeal of meeting me is another matter. - Winston Churchill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jethers203 0 #3 November 19, 2003 Tom Petty - Free Falling That is all I have to add. However, the song does not really fit with anything I have filmed. I do'nt even think the song has to do with skydiving. It just is cool when it says Freefalling over and over. Clint D-24352 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kramer 0 #4 November 19, 2003 Linkin Park-Pushing Me Away Heard this on a skydiving video once, it fit really well. Louis Armstrong-What A Wonderful World and Coldplay-Don't Panic, might be good ones for once the chute has opened if the song is being played along with video footage. -Kramer The FAKE KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!

Long Way Down-GooGoo Dolls Beautiful Day-U2 Alive-POD Lie In Our Graves- Dave Matthews Dancin Nancies-Dave Matthews Elevation-U2 But the song that got me the most was So Far Away-Stained. In fact, I'll never forget the first time I heard it!!! Driving in my car the day after completing my AFF lev 6, the closest I've gotten to the sunset load..the most amazing site I'd ever seen. The view I saw that eve with the sun just starting down on the horizon, brought tears to my eyes. I listened to the words of that song and was cryin like a little girl!!! Sorry, didn't mean to get all sappy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,989 #8 November 19, 2003 Mighty wings - Top Gun soundtrack Fall free - Alan Parsons One day to fly - Alan Parsons Icarus - Alan Parsons Ever wonder why a canopy company named themselves after a mythical figure who died when his wings failed? From the song - If we have the means to fly Some of us will surely die Being reckless was his only crime And when the wind gets under these wings We will feel what freedom brings Love train - O'Jays (theme song from the 300-way) Stranger eyes - The Cars This one isn't about skydiving at all, but the lyrics are eerie: Well you took the fall And you floated down And you made the jump And then you fell through clouds And you watched the world meet the ground Sandman - America Aint it foggy outside All the planes have been grounded Aint the fire inside Let's all go stand around it Funny I've been there, you've been here we ain't had no time to drink that beer Don't fear the reaper - Blue Oyster Cult The door was opened and a wind appeared . . . She had taken his hand Come on baby She looked backwards and said goodbye Come on baby She had started to fly Don't fear the reaper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flygirl03 0 #10 November 19, 2003 Beautiful Day (U2) and Higher (Creed) are the music for my first jump video. Another Tom Petty comes to mind, Learning to Fly. Dreams .... Van Halen Eagles Fly .... Sammy Hagar Freebird .... Lynyrd Skynyrd Given to Fly .... Pearl Jam Fly .... Sugar Ray Learn to Fly .... The Foo Fighters Fly Away .... Lenny Kravitz Turn Me Loose .... Lover Boy Time for me to Fly ... REO Speedwagon Everyday .... Bon Jovi I actually put these all together on a cd to relate to flying the airplane, so of course I have Pink Floyd's Learning to fly on there too. ...but most of these fit skydiving just as well ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LivingInClip 0 #15 November 19, 2003 Tool - Lateralis "Black and white...are all I see, in my infancy..Red and yellow then came to be..Reaching out to me...Let's me see..There is , so much more, beckons me, to look through to these infinate possibilties... Then for the kicker, near the end.. "over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind withering my intuition leaving opportunities behind feed my will to feel this moment, urging me to cross the line reaching out to embrace the random reaching out to embrace whatever may come i embrace my desire to feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside and weep like a widow to feel inspired to fathom the power to witness the beauty to bathe in the fountain to swing on the spiral to swing on a spiral to... swing on a spiral of our divinity and still be a human" I'm not sure what it is, but I just love this song and it get's me thinking and hyped everytime.

Reginald 0 #22 November 19, 2003 I’m not trying to be morbid here and I know the song title is a bit off but, Led Zeppelin’s “In My time of Dying”. The lyrics are: “If my wings should fail me Lord, please meet me with another pair” It can have two meaning. 1. God please let my reserve work. 2. If I burn in please let me into heaven. Take your pick."We've been looking for the enemy for some time now. We've finally found him. We're surrounded. That simplifies things." CP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee03 0 #24 November 19, 2003 Tom Petty "Free Falling" Kenny Loggins "Danger Zone" I had this one on my first AFF level one video.. music started as we exited the rear ramp of the CASA. It fit perfectly we were flyin! -------- To put your life in danger from time to time ... breeds a saneness in dealing with day-to-day trivialities. --Nevil Shute, Slide Rule Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
