Good skydiving songs

Recommended Posts

Valen Halen's Jump, while I like it, has been way overdone already.

Megadeth has a song specifically about skydiving though - High Speed Dirt.

"Fall Free" by Alan Parsons, and the song is about skydiving,.....................

Whats the use of worrying
If well be here tomarrow
All we need to be is here today
Dont care if youre rich
Or if you have to beg and borrow
You can always find a way
Dive and breakaway

Fall free
Freedoms in the air
Its calling you
Your heart is there
Fall free
Blaze accross the sky
The perfect fall
The perfect high

Mother earth looks peaceful
As we climb towards the ceiling
We must be ten thousand feet or more
Hear the windrush screaming
While we fight to curb our feelings
As we stand beside the door
Let our spirits soar

Fall free
Freedoms in the air
Its calling you
Your heart is there
Fall free
Blaze accross the sky
The perfect fall
The perfect high


(inspired by rob harris, world champion skysurfer)

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit.

Ok, its just a fecking cool song.



I thought it was SEEMS Like Teen Spirit? It was a good song though.

Al Yankovic did the spoof called Smells Like Teen Spirit... IIRC. ;)

Doh... I should have done a search first... I stand corrected. Al's always good for a few laughs.

The songs that relate the most to skydiving do tend to get over used!

A reasonable one I've found for tandem vids is "Let You Down" by Three Days Grace [edit: group name corrected], that has lyrics that are interestingly appropriate:

==
Trust me
There’s no need to fear
Everyone’s here
Waiting for you to finally be one of us

Come down...
You may be full of fear
But you’ll be safe here
When you finally trust me
Finally believe in me
[...]
==

A classic is the song on Norm Kent's From Wings Came Flight: "I'm standing on the edge, with a vision in my head, my body screams release me, my dreams they must be fed"
