What song should the Air Cav play as they storm Baghdad?

Remember the scene in "Apocalypse Now" where the Air Cav attacks the Vietcong village, and "Ride of the Valkyries" is blaring from a speaker on the lead copter? I was wondering what songs would be apropos for this war? Any good ideas? I thought a good one would be "The End" by The Doors.

Bingo.

First song that came to my mind.

I'd love to be a fighter pilot in attack mode with that blasting in my ears.

If we can get the bombs to drop in slow motion with a lot of flash (work with me here...), I'd like to hear "Brothers in Arms" (Dire Straits).

A terrific bombing song would be "YYZ" from Rush's "Moving Pictures" album. No words but some bad-assed work by the greatest drummer since the late J.P. Bonham.

Bombs over baghdad by Outcast

That has to be the one Howard Stern was playing this morning when he called Meg Griffin's(sp?) answering machine. Sounded pretty good if it is the right song. How about "Conflict" by Disturbed?

Holst PLanet's "Mars"

But the Hendrix "Watch tower" would also be a good choice

I think they should stick with "Ride of the Valkyries".
