"never gonna come back down" by BT

That was an awesome song for a while for me for skydiving, but then I heard it played @ work over and over again!! What is up with that?

Personally, I like techno or ambience for freeflying. I really think Joe Jennings put together a killer mix for his Good Stuff video. I can watch that over and over and over again.

Van Halen (Jump) for the ground and ride up.
Van Halen (Eruption) for the ride down.

My personal favorite is "Long Way Down" by the Goo Goo Dolls.

My fav song for jumping is "Higher" by Creed.But there are hundreds if you look for 'em...

"Free Fallin' " --Tom Petty
"Learning to Fly" --Tom Petty
"Sweet Emotion" --Aerosmith
"Flirtin with Disaster"--Molly Hatchet

Like I said,there are hundreds if you know where to look.These are just some I know off the top of my head that I've seen put on videos.Do a search..this topic has been done over and over in the forums.

I liked "_uck you like an animal" by NIN

oops... Was that outloud? sorry

Well, "Closer" is the official name of that song. Great track, really. I study music theory, and I really want to write an article about that one, actually that whole album. The Downward Spiral is brilliantly conceived.
That and I would just LOVE to see "I want to fuck you like an animal" printed in a scholarly journal.

Hmm... there was a discussion of a list on rec.skydiving a while back... I still have a list hanging around my homepage:

for some reason i have a picture in my head of a skysurfer approaching the camera to "walking on sunshine" from katrina and the waves, and just as (s)he passes the camera, (s)he stares into the lens for the "ooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww" bit at the start of the song.
