What music to you play in background?

[Fariz]

All what I have, but I found that with some music I fly better  

My "AH bands list":

Manowar, Metallica, Nirvana, Offsping, Doors.

Fast compositions are better, with slow lirics I tend to miss too often

[Frodo]

Must agree fd-ski about "Another one bites the dust" but it works for flight sims.  

Try these favorite Queen tunes of mine....

"Who wants to live forever"
"The show must go on"
"One vision"
"Hammer to fall"
"Procession"
"Headlong"
"Now I'm here"
"In the lap of the gods"

Or if you prefer try...
"Fat bottomed girls"  

BTW all LW guys wear pink don't they?

[snag]

there's a time for AH and a time for music, and they are not the same.

PS. those who play and replay 'the ride of the Walkyries' should be condemned to listen to the complete opera.

This thread has had me thinking, there's a real good track on one of AeroSmith's albums "Permanent Vacation" called "The Movie" It's a thumping 4 minute instrumental.

I imitate an Iron Butterfly alot  
I'll listen to Rainbow or the Heavy Metal sound track some times but mostly just the aircraft's engine.

[Spatula]

You guys dissapoint me  
You forget the classic, and somehow appropriate "Aces High" By Iron Maiden.

"Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die..."

But seriously, i listen to Bananarama  

Nah, actually the sweet music of the engine is does it for me.

I like to listen to Pachebel's Canon.  It soothes my soul and brings me inner-peace as I strafe chutes.

I've got a SB PCI128 and it allows me to have cd music AND Game sound, I have some Altec Lansing ACS41's on the front channel and ran the back channel to my 200watt amp attached to two wall mounted speakers and 2  tower speakers on the floor, when I crank up my FW-190A8 it sounds like I am THERE!
Plus I'm kinda like that kid in Iron Eagle who told Lou Gossett "I need the tunes for my Rhythm"
And some of the LYRICS that I can really
associate Aces High with:
---------------------------------------------

AC-DC
Shoot to Thrill
All you women who want a man of the street
But you don't know which way you wanna turn
Just keep a coming and put your hand out to me
Cause I'm the one who's gonna make you burn
I'm gonna take you down - down, down, down
So don't you fool around
I'm gonna pull it, pull it, pull the trigger

Chorus:
Shoot to thrill, play to kill
Too many women with too many pills
Shoot to thrill, play to kill
I got my gun at the ready, gonna fire at will

Yeah, I'm like evil, I get under your skin
Just like a bomb that's ready to blow
'Cause I'm illegal, I got everything
That all you women might need to know
I'm gonna take you down - yeah, down, down, down,So don't you fool around
I'm gonna pull it, pull it, pull the trigger

Shoot to thrill, play to kill
Too many women with too many pills
Shoot to thrill, play to kill

I got my gun at the ready, gonna fire at will
Cause I shoot to thrill, and I'm ready to kill I can't get enough, can't get my fill

I shoot to thrill, play to kill
Yeah, pull the trigger
Pull it, pull it, pull it, pull the trigger

Chorus:
---------------------------------------------

AC-DC
Back in black
I hit the sack
I've been gone too long
I'm glad to be back
Yes, I'm let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I've been looking at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse 'cause I never die
I got nine lives
Cat's eyes
Abusin' every one of them and running wild

Chorus:
'Cause I'm back                           Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
(Well) I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black

Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a gang
With a bang
They've got to catch me if they want me to
hang
Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beatin' the flak
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck, just get out of
my way

Chorus:
---------------------------------------------

AND THIS ONE ALWAYS COMES TO MIND WHEN I DIVE INTO A FURBALL:

Steelers Wheels
Stuck in the Middle With You

Well I don't know why I came here tonight
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the
stairs

Chorus:
Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
here I am
Stuck in the middle with you
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you

And I'm wondering what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
cuz' I'm showin' off all over the place

Chorus:

Well you started out with nothing and you're
proud that you're a Self made man
And your friends, they all come crawlin, slap
you on the back and say
Please....     Please.....

Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see that it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor
Cause I don't think that I can take anymore

Chorus:

Well you started out with nothing and you're
proud that you're a Self made man
And your friends, they all come crawlin, slap
you on the back and say
Please....     Please.....

And I don't know why I came here tonight
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the
stairs

Chorus:
---------------------------------------------

It's official. jmccaul has by far the best taste around here  

[Vermillion]

Actually I found a neat little proggy that is outstanding for those with broadband connects.

Its called WinAmp, and you can grab it at http://yp.shoutcast.com

Its a streaming audio program, that allows you to "tune in" just about any kind of "virtual" radio station you want.

Havent' tried it during AH yet, but will tonight.

My personal preference are the "HardRock/Alternative" stations, with bands such as Tool, Bush, Creed, and such.

32 years old and still listening to music that teenagers would recognize

I've used Winamp for a long time Verm, not as much for streaming audio as for playing MP3s.  It's very resource light, and has no problem playing while AH is running (unlike the more widely known bulky system-hog, Realplayer/realjukebox)
