Soundtrack to your life

Recommended Posts

Well I'm sitting here at the back of the operations room (Baghdad), where is is ten PM so I have some music on my headphones...

Well a great old '80s track comes on, and I have turned it up to enjoy it and then I got a sudden wierd feeling like this is all a film and I have just turned up the soundtrack.

If this is going to be the soundtrack, I need something a little more dramatic. Perhaps 'eye of the tiger' by survivor or 'The boys are back in town' which has luckily just come on.:)
What's your tune?

Hmmm...one tune for my entire life? That's a tough one.

Right now I'd probably say Malaguena is a good representation.

Hot, loud and fast brass licks, then smooth quieter sections, followed by some screaming trumpet and fast playing.

Fits my life, lots of fast sometimes loud sections, with some mellower sections, all gelling together to make a mostly fun life.


edit: I read your post too fast and some how brain farted, missing the part where you remind me that you're in the sandbox. Take care of yourself and get back to jump again!

The TOP SONG for my life is a two-way tie:

Southern Cross by CSN(&Y). Old school for a 30yo, and really kinda slow, but a BADASS song; a song about a guy who maybe hasn't made all the right decisions, maybe hasn't had the world handed to him on a silver platter, but who still finds the world to be a place filled with indescribable beauty.

Crazy by Seal -- I like the message, and although it's also a little mundane by the standards of the music I listen to today I really like the tune and it hit the charts at a really good time in my life...

Other runner-ups:

White Lightning by Def Leppard
Headstrong by Trapt
Plush by STP (another 'time of life' fav)
Higher by Creed (i know i know, leave me alone)
White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane
and...
What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong

Just come home alive Bro and we'll play any tune you want.

For Those About to Rock... We Salute You



Cheers dude! 21 days to go... and good choice - ACDC rocks!

Aggiedave - I just meant a tune for right now!! A tune for the whole of your life would be too tough a choice...

Although if I did have to make that call, I think that 'The Boys are back in town' or 'Schools out for the summer' would be right up there! B|

Love Shack, by the B-52's.

All that Heaven Will Allow - Springsteen. I'm not a real fan of Springsteen, but that song describes a lot.

***Rain clouds and dark skies, well they don't mean a thing.
If you've got a girl that loves you and who wants to wear your ring.
So come on Mr. Trouble, we'll make it through you somhow.
We'll fill this house with all the love, all that heaven will allow.

Some they want to die young men, young and gloriously.
Get it straight now mister, hey buddy that ain't me.
Cause I got something on my mind, yeah, that sets me straight and walking proud.
And I want all the time, all that heaven will allow.

Kinda describes my present life in a nutshell! :)


My wife is hotter than your wife.

Not a bad remake... I'm always a fan of remakes. It's fun to hear somebody else's take on a song.

TOO COOL: with all due respect to them I have NO idea who the cajun chickens are but I'm on their video! They have a couple seconds of footage from a Dirtball jump me and my buds did last year at the WFFC on that video! Small world I tell ya...

ok, Chic Corea or Maynard ferguson Arrangement?

I'd hope mine would be Basie's "Wind Machine" but it would probably be something like "Mellow Tone"
