What is your battle song?
Apr 5th, 2012, 12:39pm
 
Ever had one of those times where you get in the bad-smelling-brown-stuff (waist deep), where it feels as if the entire world is taking a big, smelly dump on you. Fear and doubt creep into your mind. Like a zombie hand, it reaches out from behind that thick curtain everytime you feel just a little too good.
 
Your face is pushed into the muck for the 10th time today... You have nothing left to give... You surrender...
 
But then...f#%&#d up, to-the-point-of-letting-THEM-win...
 
That song softly starts to play in the back of your mind and you hear it from far away. It grows louder and louder until it blocks out all the doubt and fear. You raise your face out the dirt, get to your knees, your feet. You smile from a bloodied mouth... Raise your middle finger in defiance and whisper to yourself: "You can only kill me. But, you can never beat me."
 
I have days like this...
 
There are a few songs that are my anthens (kick-some-devil-ass-full-blood-child-of-God songs), but there is my "Let's fight until there is only one left standing" song.

Anything by manowar fits the bill.  Heart of steel, courage, hail and kill being the first three that spring to mind.

Almost any song from the Transformers 3 soundtrack
 
Wings of Icarus  Cool
 
Most songs from Skillet Or Thousand Foot Crutch
 
Linkin Park's The Catalyst, or New Divide are pretty good too.

Death in Fire.  
 
And of course, the battle cry of the 1%
 
What are we?
-The one percent!
What do we have?
-Most of the money!
What do we want?
-THE REST OF IT!

This glorious piece of auditory delight.
 
In all seriousness thought, Seven Nation Army, by the White Stripes. I'm a Jack White fan through and through.

I Feel Pretty is a GREAT one.  Love it.  I have two favorites.  First, from the masterpiece A Clockwork Orange, Singing in the Rain.  WARNING:  THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS VERY GRAPHIC VIOLENCE:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWvWyYz9ttk
Next, Wagner's The Ride of the Valkyries, a gorgeous piece of music.  Think Apocalypse Now:

in fact.....
More violence, BTW:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gz3Cc7wlfkI&feature=related

The concept is familiar to me, but not something I personally indulge in...   It's frowned upon in police work...
When I was a young lad in the army, participating in the big NATO maneuver I've mentioned before, the "good guys" were the Norwegians and the "bad guys" were the British.
 
We had a "battle" where the invading Brits tried to take the hill we were occupying, and failed.  The Norwegians on the front line beat them off.  Afterwards, we could hear the Norwegian troops singing some sort of victory song.

A warrior's song if I've ever heard one Pik.  
 
My favorite battle song is probably "The Battle" (imagine that!) from the Gladiator sound track. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAOTSO9ioZk

Well said. I like that. 'cause when the knives come out, play time is over. Like where i live. Someone pulls a knife, you know it's apologise and walk away or die.
