What song should the Air Cav play as they storm Baghdad?
3/19/03 | drew

Posted on 03/19/2003 1:16:46 PM PST by drew

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.

Concur, the Imperial March would be THE tune to play. That, or the Stars and Stripes Forever.

I think the Peanuts cartoon theme song. I think they would be stairing at the sky saying "what the f*** is that?" long enough for our guys to put one in the head, and two in the chest.

How about SteamRoller Blues by James Taylor

Well, I'm a steamroller, baby
I'm bound to roll all over you
Yes, I'm a steamroller, baby
I'm bound to roll all over you
I'm gonna inject your soul with some sweet rock 'n roll
And shoot you full of rhythm and blues
Well, I'm a cement mixer
A churning urn of burning funk
Yes, I'm a cement mixer for you, baby
A churning urn of burning funk
Well, I'm a demolition derby
A hefty hunk of steaming junk
Now, I'm a napalm bomb, baby
Just guaranteed to blow your mind
Yeah, I'm a napalm bomb for you, baby
Guaranteed to blow your mind
And if I can't have your love for my own
Sweet child, won't be nothing left behind.
It seems how lately, baby
Got a bad case steamroller blues

Oh, "Mars" is a great piece; perhaps followed by "Jupiter" after Saddams destruction and Iraqi's are free.
