Thought maybe I'd take the pressure off Captain Crunch with a list of my own. I get weird when I encounter greatness and beauty. Art makes me hyperventilate. Talent makes me cry. I can't listen to great music without seeing stars. Then the stars move and bounce and I see music. Occasionally movies playback in my dreams, the whole thing in a flash of subconscious fall out.
I'm probably never getting in another fight unless someone touches my dog. But holy crap if I do I hope the right song is playing. Which brings me to...if I were a UFC fighter and my walk out song...
But first, a small list of some top ten walkout songs to wet the appetite...
The sound sucks but Sinead O'Connor singing Foggy Dew for Connor McGregor is chilling. That woman could sing and has fought harder than most people. So cool.
Ok. Lights, camera, hammer of the gods, here I come...
What's up bro? Do you even have a walkout song?

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

0-0:45, slow intro as I make my way out of the locker room
0:45-1:05 Enter Arena, crowd goes crazy
1:05-2:10 Music chills out for remainder of walk out and pre-fight inspection
2:10-2:30 Music builds as I get ready to enter cage
2:30- HIT EM WITH DA FUNK, crowd goes ape####, opponent trembles in fear, Dana considers handing me the belt that very moment, at least 1000 babies are conceived that night as a direct result.
I tried to think of something funny but yeah, not gonna top the A&W theme. So.
