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.

I would say "O Fortuna" from Carmina Burana. Music to invade Europe by (Carl Orff
was the official composer to the Third Reich, you know).
I'm surprised no one has said "Hair of the Dog" by Nazareth:
"Now you're messin' with... a son of a b****!"

Has the metallica song with the orchestra in the background been mentioned yet ? The song about a freight train coming your way ?

Sorry, but the one that has brought the biggest smile to my face was "The Girl from Ipanema". Can't stop laughing every time I think of the choppers going in with retro lounge music playing. Perhaps our Marines and soldiers should pack in cocktail shakers, dinner jackets, and cigarette cases to accompany the music selection for their victory celebration?

Not exactly the words to this song. I made a few minor changes.
Artist: Tim Dog
Album: Penicillin on Wax
Title: Step to Me
Step to me if you're ready for a beatdown
Swift wit my hands, I don't f**k around
I'm laying out RG's in a sec
I'll get wreck and break your muthaf**king neck
Who can step to me from Bhagdad
None them ragheads 'cause I'm still stomping
So bail in your best RG's
Nigga, please
I'll wax you, tax you, I'll just fax you
Put in ?(sominian)? pumps to cold mack you
You think your WMD's are so fine
I'm rolling through Iraq wit a tech nine
And if there's a repercussion, there"s no discussion
So the sh*t ain't nutting
And if you think you can f**k wit the U-S-A
Ha-ha, step to me
Step to me...
Watch me slip
You better have fear
Somebody should've told ya the USA is near
I'm wiping that ass like tissue
Best believe America's gonna dis you
Rip you up, tip you up, cold bust your lips up
Now shut the f**k up
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
You know you can't fuck around wit the Jim Brown
Running RG's like a quarterback
American's are wack, I want my muthaf**king oil back
All those tracks you made
F**k your grade 'cause your sh*t is played
Dis me, why bother
Stepping to me, you rather step to your father
Yea, and I'm all that
And Iraq is crazy wack
Peace to T-Blair, Peace to Juan-C
Jaques Chirac, you can suck my di*k
Then I want to wax that ass
And send you back to hardcore class
And if you think you can f*k wit the U-S-A
Bring it on, step to me
Step to me...
Step to a man wit the clan at hand
Ina masterplan, sh*t, G*d dam*
Lethal weapons, I got'em and
George Bush is a man, you shouldn't a been sleeping on
I carry on wit the song, you're right, I'm dog-gone
Word is born
I'll compare and dare wit a stare
Your sayind where, I'm over here
Terrorist bull, a guerilla warfare
Dis my country, don't you dare
Girls jock me, crowds clock me
While French surrender monkeys cock block me
But if there a leader that think that he's better than me
Bring it on, step to me
Step to me...

"Girl from Ipanema, The"
Writer(s): Jobim/Gimbel/DeMoraes
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ah
When she walks, she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes - ooh
(Ooh) But I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me
Tall, (and) tan, (and) young, (and) lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see (doesn't see)
(She just doesn't see, she never sees me,...)
