Ashtanga 0 #1 July 26, 2005 Anyone ever hear the Megadeth song that they did as a tribute to skydiving? It was called High Speed Dirt. Lyrics... Dave Mustaine/David Ellefson Do it if you dare Leaping from the sky Hurling thru the air Exhilarating high See the earth below Soon to make a crater Blue sky, black death I'm off to meet my maker Chorus Energy of the gods, adrenalin surge Won't stop til I hit the ground, I'm on my way for sure Up here in the air, this will never hurt I'm on my way to impact, taste the high speed dirt Paralyzed with fear Feel velocity gain Entering a near Catatonic state Pressure of the sound Roaring thru my head Crash into the ground Damned if I'll be dead Chorus Jump or die! Solo - Dave Solo - Marty Dropping all my weight Going down full throttle The pale horse awaits Like a genie in a bottle Fire in my veins Faster as I go I forgot my name I'm a dirt torpedo Solo - Marty High speed dirt... Solo - Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LouDiamond 1 #3 July 26, 2005 Dude, that song is like WAY old A couple years back there was a guy claiming to be one of the guitarists from Megadeth hanging around Perris. I think I read somewhere(maybe here) that Dave " I have anger management issues" Mustaine had made some skydives back in the day."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,691 #16 July 26, 2005 Alan Parsons has "fall free", "one day to fly" and "icarus" all of which are about flying/skydiving: Fall free Freedom's in the air It's calling you Your heart is there --------- The man must be insane, who knows A mind alive with images so strange So close but never rode the sky Watching the birds as they sail on the wing Trying to figure out the reason why Picturing wings held together with string One day to fly ---------- God forgive his fall from grace the sea conceals his resting place Can we learn to stay behind the line? If we have the will to fly Some of us will surely die Being reckless was his only crime But when the wind gets under these wings we will feel what freedom brings Stay right by me walk don't run I don't want you flying too close to the sun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
