What a great list idea, thanks for doing this, it gives me some time off
I've often thought that everyone needs their own internal play list. The one that makes them walk into a room like they own it, or leave the room like they've left it destroyed.
I'm not as much a UFC guy as a wrestling guy, and the song makes the performance.
I've often thought, what makes a great entrance fight song. For some reason that abrupt start
You know, the breaking glass, the squealing brakes, Trish's giggle, "BRRRAUUN"
The rough bass line that makes you see someone walking towards the fight.
Saliva was great for that.
But for me, I've got two songs and why.
One, Intruder the intro to pretty woman by Van Halen.
The drum beat, the choppy guitar and background noise. You can just feel yourself pumping your fists on the way to the fight and your adrenaline surging, and this song is all about building to something bigger.
The other one, is on my playlist before every football game that I've coached. I've tried to get the buys to play it at Shouldice during the warmup but they won't because its too rough.
But New Noise by refused, and the anthrax version is great to.
But the buildup for the first lyric "Can I scream!?!". There is just a raw anger and passion to this song that I love and it makes me want to run to where I'm going
