Motivational Songs

[Sully]

Ride of the Valkyries - I'll not mention the regiment, just in case.

I s**t you not, and I've said it before but I served with a direct descendent (great great grandson - can't remember now) of Richard Wagner.......in the.........wait for it...........Royal Marines

Tiny Tim Tip toe through the tulips

[Sticky Blue]

During the training we had for going to the Cenotaph in London. We had to stand and listen to it for three weeks.

Noz... I'm starting to get very worried now. We were on the I together in Poland and you've been on the Cenotaph with me as well.
Are you my fan club, celebrity stalker or both?
Please don't say you were selling programmes in London at the Mountbatten festival... I'll get really paranoid if you do

[Artist]

Of course the ace song from the 80's "Star trekking across the universe" guaranteed to crack up anybody when sung by the entire office of CinCNavHome Printers office during Admirals rounds.

Ride of the Valkyries - Wagner

Is that the one from Apocalypse Now? Brilliant (my music knowledge isnt good)

I love the music from the film Platoon. Currently listen to the Red Hot Chilli Pepers when driving. Im not a punk but do like thier songs.

[Sticky Blue]

I love the music from the film Platoon

Barber's Adagio for strings

If you like that you should get a CD from the library of Albinoni's Adagios. Brilliant music for going to sleep to or just chilling out.
For motivation you need the "USMC Run to Cadence"
Left, right, left, right, lefty, right-a-left
Left, right, left, right, lefty, right-a-left
I wanna be a combat ranger
I wanna be a combat ranger
I wanna live a life of danger
I wanna live a life of danger

Ohhhhhrah! USMC Uncle Sam's Misguided Children

[Frank S.]

Sticks, I see your Barber's Adagio and raise you one Bach's "Agnus Dei".

[Sticky Blue]

OK Frank... you are a hard player:
I'll see you Bach's "Agnus Dei" and raise you Holst's Mars and Jupiter.
If I was to stay on the modern stuff it would probably be something like a John Williams Midway March for marching up and down or Olympic Theme and Fanfare with the speakers on full)but if you really want to raise the stakes on the chill out music I'll go for the jugular with the performer as well!
Maurice Andre - Bach - Suite No3 - Air
I have hugely diverse musical tastes though; Led Zeppelin and Queensryche to Gregorian Chants! You don't get much further apart than that... or do you?

[Whitey]

Braveheart music was good too.

[Wholley]

Artist.
When I first heard"Klingons on the starboard bow"I was in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico,running the rigs,dark night,pissing down,vis zero,First Dog Watch,Head phones on ,tuned to the BBC via short wave,just about went overboard laughing,deckie wondering why I'm creased up.
Too funny.
Wholley.

[Wholley]

OK Loz.
See your" Night on a Bald Mountain"
Raise you Ludwig van's Symphony No,3 in E flat major op .55 "The Eroica"

Wholley.

I call your bluffs with Outkast "Hey Ya"

[Jon]

Anyone seen the film King of New York? Theres a song in it which is a mixture of rap and jazz. Hell of a song.

[El Prez]

Just to keep things on my level 'Postman Pat' always makes me smile.
