What's your favorite song for a skydiving video?

Recommended Posts

It's not about the words at all . . . it's just the type of music. I don't even know that I can recall any of the words to "Liberate" without it playing.

Oh, and I *gulp* agree with you on one thing - I LOVE that song from "Adrenaline Rush". It's called "When You're Fallin'". :P;):D:$

Holy shit! I couldn't get it back into my head until you said that! Now it's there -- THANK YOU!

Now, who sings it?

I love the "la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la" stuff in it. Sounds so "world-music"! :P

The vocal sounds SO much like Peter Gabriel to me, but I'm told it's not him...

Why Stevie Ray's version of little wing? Why not go Hendrix?

I don't know why I always hear punk in my head when I think about skydiving. Almost anything from NOFX.
Nine Inch Nails could also be good.
If you like metal try some Unearth, or maybe some Opeth, or even Into Eternity (they have killer guitar breakdowns)
If you like electronic try some Broken Spindles. I think the album Fulfilled Complete is amazing.

You didn't really give us any hints on your preference of music genre.

I would love to see one of these great skydiving video editors/artists use Phil Seymour's "Let Her Dance" in a great freefly video.

Ok, ok, so it's very 80s, but it's got the perfect beat.

If no one else does it before I learn to fly a camera, I'll do it myself -- I'm warning ya! :D

I had Tom Petty's Freefallin for my tandem video so whenever I hear it it brings back memories of my first skydive. On one of my student videos they put the Dangerzone song from the soundtrack of Top Gun and that was pretty cool for a skydiving video. I go to Itunes and preview songs before I down load them to my Ipod. They have a pretty good selection.

OMG. I can not listen to that song anymore. I swear it went on every passenger's video when I was doing tandems. :S

I also did a clip of funnels and fug ups and put it to "Rescue Me", (a dance mix of it)

Over used music (please retire this junk)

Tim McGraw Live Like You Were Dying
"I went sky diving... I went Rocky Mountain climbing..."
Pink Floyd Learning to Fly
I'm never letting the old hippy edit videos ever again...[:/]
No Doubt Just a Girl

My personal favorite is nearly any Daft Punk or basement jaxx song.
Do Your Thing is particularly good.;)

It's by Afro Celt Sound System, and yes, it's Peter Gabriel on vocals. Want a copy?



OMG YES! Thank you!

How, though?

(How about that -- I recognized Peter Gabriel's voice! I never did see the credit for the song, though, so I never heard of that group. Is that a band that has, like, albums and stuff?)

I'll throw it on my server and PM you the address. They've got albums and stuff, I have a few of 'em, I'd need to find my archive DVD though, I only have a few of the songs on my drive.
