Your entrance music

[Celephais]

I'm in the process of cutting songs into 30 second clips for my kickball team, we are planning on playing entrance music for each player when they come up to kick over some portable iPod speakers, and it's sparked some pretty fun discussion about entrance music.

So, what would your entrance song be?
(For those of you unfamiliar, some teams in baseball when a player is walking up to bat they play their theme music).

Mine is going to be, Buck-o-Nine: Irish Drinking Song (It was tough to pass on Rock you like a hurricane)
The team captain has "Real American"
A few of the others some teammates have picked:
GNR - Welcome to the Jungle
Timbaland - Carry Out
Survivor - Eye of the Tiger
The Game - How We Do
Europe - Final Countdown

[kookiegod]

Metalingus - Alter Bridge

[AnticorRifling]

Good ones for things like this include:

Fort Minor - Remember the Name
Eminem - Til I collapse
AC/DC - Thunder
Queen - We Will Rock You
Various Johnny Cash, Public Enemy, Ladies Love Cool James, etc.

I think it's specific on the person....now I gotta figure out what mine would be.

[AnticorRifling]

Warren G - Regulate would be pretty funny for some kickball.

[ElvenFury]

I don't know if they still do it, but the Red Sox used to play "Wild Thing" (a la Ricky Vaughn) every time Papelbon (their closer) came out to pitch. He even had the Vaughn hair for a while.

[AnticorRifling]

The Imperial March would have to be Rojo's, no question.

[Some Rogue]

I think it's specific on the person....now I gotta figure out what mine would be.

Something by Wham or RuPaul?

[4a6c1]

How can anyone have 1 theme song? Depends on the place and time for me. With that statement here are the songs I often get in my head in my extremely varied weekly places and times.

"Sun is Shining" or "Three Little Birds" - Bob Marley

"Seven Deadly Sins" - Flogging Molly

"Mein Teil" - Rammstein

"Somewhere Over the Rainbow" - Wizard of Oz

"Machine" - Static X

[Some Rogue]

I think it's specific on the person....now I gotta figure out what mine would be.

I got it! The Bitch is Back by Elton John!

[4a6c1]

The Imperial March would have to be Rojo's, no question.

:-X

[Sean]

As Roper did in the Great White Hype I've always thought Method Man - Bring the Pain was a good entrance song.

[4a6c1]

Something by Wham or RuPaul?

His sexysong: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrBx6mAWYPU

[Sean]

I don't know if they still do it, but the Red Sox used to play "Wild Thing" (a la Mo Vaughn) every time Papelbon (their closer) came out to pitch. He even had the Vaughn hair for a while.

Mo or Ricky 'Wild Thing' Vaughn?

[BigWorm]

Europe - The Final Countdown
The Alan Parsons Project - Sirius
Motley Crue - Kickstart My Heart
Pretty much anything by Rainbow

[Cephalopod]

Mo or Ricky 'Wild Thing' Vaughn?

This is what I assumed.

[AnticorRifling]

I got it! The Bitch is Back by Elton John!

It scares me that you can name an Elton John song, doesn't surprise me, just scares me.

Oh shit Silly Face I got it: Do the Family Guy where Stewie and Bryan are radio DJs and Stewie presses the button and it plays Denzel Washington in Philadelphia. Queue that up at least once a game randomly on different people.

[Some Rogue]

I hear you singing it in vent all the time. How could I not know it?

[ElvenFury]

Mo or Ricky 'Wild Thing' Vaughn?

Fuck. That would be Ricky, obviously.

Here, everyone stare at this while I pretend I'm not retarded:

[AnticorRifling]

Sweet mother of God I shouldn't have clicked on that at work, but I'm glad I did.

[Celephais]

The Imperial March would have to be Rojo's, no question.
This was on my list of possibilities ... but after the first game my teammates insisted that I had to go w/ something drinking related (Barenaked's Alcohol made the list too)

Oh shit Silly Face I got it: Do the Family Guy where Stewie and Bryan are radio DJs and Stewie presses the button and it plays Denzel Washington in Philadelphia. Queue that up at least once a game randomly on different people.

I've already threatened to play "pretty in pink" for one teammate. I'm liking where you're heads at though. Rickrolling the other team would be pretty good too.

I've got a crappy little iPod doc, I'm thinking it's worth it for me to invest in another solution, anyone have any personal experience w/ a portable battery powered speaker system that's loud and not that expensive?

[peam]

Geto Boys - Still
Danzig - Mother
Botch - O Fortuna

[DoctorUnne]

Mine would be Can't Be Touched by Roy Jones Jr.

This is also fun to do while golfing on the tee box.

[Latrinsorm]

The theme to Justified (Long Hard Time to Come).

or

Gathering Crowds (the end theme for This Week in Baseball).

[Soulpieced]

Psycho Monkey - Joe Satriani (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWwtJJ3bqhM)

PS: Soulpieced wins this thread.

[radamanthys]

Geto Boys - Still
Danzig - Mother
Botch - O Fortuna

O Fortuna by Carl Orff would be a better choice. It's way more... epic. In the classic sense, not the modern meme sense.

Mine would be frenetic and cerebral. It'd have classical and early American (Americana, Jazz, Blues) themes with a touch of bombastic cacophony thrown in. High energy. Something that you could both work out to and have on while you sit on your back porch with a scotch and a cigar.

To go with my avatar here, Tank! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6jCJZEFIto&feature=related) fits the bill, in some respects. And it's got the punchiness that a entrance song needs. I'd likely use that.

[LMingrone]

Lil Wayne ft. Fabolous, Juelz Santana & Justin Tuck - You Ain’t Got Nuthing (Nike Sports Remix)
http://usershare.net/v44r4x0hu2ya

The song sucks, but the JT opening is awesome.
Or just Rick Roll everyone.

[Back]

Bad - Michael Jackson

[TheEschaton]

Damn it, I can't neg rep Back's douchey scarf.

[Stanley Burrell]

You only need, like, the first three notes and you're ready to fuck the shit up out of every other 30-second intro person's ... 30-second intro. You can literally murder sound.

[4a6c1]

Psycho Monkey - Joe Satriani (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWwtJJ3bqhM)

PS: Soulpieced wins this thread.

I love this! It feels like late 90's with a bit of classic guitar thrown in and with a rythm that could belong in a fast comic book movie.

I got a great one for you...that song from Kill Bill, but I'd focus on the riff in the beginning.

The song has a perfect name for kickball, too: Battle Without Honor or Humanity.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAztzZQMNXo

[Xanator]

I don't know if they still do it, but the Red Sox used to play "Wild Thing" (a la Ricky Vaughn) every time Papelbon (their closer) came out to pitch. He even had the Vaughn hair for a while.

Nah. They also played "Bodies" by Drowning Pool for his intro for a while, but he decided it was too violent and held a fan vote to change it. The Dropkicks' "Shipping up to Boston" won, and he memorably jigged to this on the outfield grass in his underwear after the 2007 ALCS. I would recommend this course of action in the kickball league.

W.A.S.P - "Animal (Fuck Like a Beast)"

[Tea & Strumpets]

After further review, I have realized that I made the best suggestion. You have to remember that a lot of people have seen Kill Bill, so when the other team hears your intro, they will psychosamatically (making up word for clarity) begin to fear that you are a ninja.

The first 30 seconds (or even 32 seconds since you are making the intros and no one will know if you give yourself an extra 2) is perfect.

[RichardCranium]

This would be mine. Indubitably. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qk6d7Wn32-U)

WTF.

I really wish you would post more often. Shit like this is just such a tease.

Not everyone can abuse parentheses like I do.

[Gan]

AC/DC - Thunderstruck, Hells Bells, TNT, Shook Me All Night Long and Back in Black

Queen - We Will Rock You

Gary Glitter - Hey song

No Sleep til Brooklyn - Beastie Boys

Big Pimpin - Jay Z

Darth Vader's Theme (Imperial Death March) - John Williams

Rocky theme song

George Thoroughgood - Bad to the Bone

Guns N Roses - Welcome to the Jungle, Sweet Child of Mine

Ozzy - Crazy Train

Lynard Skynard - Sweet Home Alabama

Tupac - California

Scorpions - Rock You Like a Hurricane

Nightranger - You Can Still Rock in America

Black Eyed Peas - Lets get it started

Rush - Tom Sawyer

[4a6c1]

Not everyone can abuse parentheses like I do.

Yeah umm...(i can.) But wont. Till later at least. (Bye for now[Changed my mind.].)

[Xanator]

I've devoted a little more thought to this, and would like to add some more suggestions:


For rockin' instrumental intros:

"Epic" - Faith No More

"Come Out and Play (Keep 'em Separated)" - Offspring

"So Far Away" - Social Distortion

"Bulls on Parade" - RATM

"November Rain" - GNR. Play the ending.

"Brain Stew" - Green Day. Just thinking about recommending a Green Day song for anything other than deletion from existence makes me turn green, but the intro would be pretty bitchin' for a walk-up.

Rockin' Content:

"We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off" - Jermaine Stewart

"Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue" - Toby Keith

"Hit Me With Your Best Shot" - Pat Benatar

"Billy, Don't Be a Hero" - I can't decide between the Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods or Paper Lace versions. I'm thinking Bo Donaldson--these could be your uniforms: http://www.discogs.com/image/A-150-510959-1147620035.jpeg

"Little Willy" - The Sweet. Just play the chorus.

"Balls to the Wall" - Accept. Again, the chorus.

"Loser" - Beck

"The Last Game of the Season (A Blind Man in the Bleachers)" - David Geddes

"You Sexy Thing" - Hot Chocolate

This list of songs + YouTube = at least ten or fifteen minutes of solid gold entertainment.

[AnticorRifling]

She Bangs - William Hung

[Latrinsorm]

"Bulls on Parade" - RATMI like to think RATM's message was fundamentally "I am about to do better than you in a sporting event". This selection has my strongest endorsement.

[WRoss]

I don't know if it has been said, but these are some musts:

Tetris music
Zelda Music

.

Another good one is the Intermission (fanfare) from DooM E2M3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVRbEvPvF7A)-style. None of that 64-bit shit, SNES, 32x, 3D0, Saturn, Jaguar, or especially GBA faggotry. I'm talking about you just set your DMA channels for Sound Blaster 2.0 and are ready to go IDDQD on some motherfuckers.

[Mighty Nikkisaurus]

Definitely need to do the first few seconds of any of these songs, and then:

I'm not sure about the Vuvuzela but I've taken time out of my busy work day to craft a manual so you know how to use it properly.

ETA: Forgot to include "Someone is dequartered" but feel free to use your vuvuzela then too.

[RSR]

If it's for kickball, you can't go wrong with AC/DC "Big Balls"
