Music when playing SPWAW

I was wondering if any of you play certain kinds of music when playing SPWAW?
In 99% of the times I only play one or more of the following CD's:

1-A burned double CD filled with downloaded soundtracks (Gettysburg, The Thin Red Line, Saving Private Ryan, Back Draft, Crimson Tide, Dances With Wolves, The Rock, Starship Troopers, Platoon, The Perfect Storm, Amazing Grace, Hamburger Hill, Gladiator, etc.).
2- U2 double CD (Live Zooropa Tour).
3- Sarah Mc CLaughlan (spelling?), especially the song "In the arms of the angel".
4- The whole Soundtrack CD's from The Thin Red Line and Gladiator.

So, what do you people put in the CD-player (or MP-3 player/MD-player/Cassette/DCC or anything else)???

Regards,

Can't really say but sometimes I put certain songs on repeat:

Ambush - Sepultura (when you go down fighting - yeah)

Stand Tall - ProPain
Head Up - Deftones

And I found scots bagpipes always work for me.

Depending on the mood, either some swing, or if I'm really pissed off at the enemy, various heavy metal songs!!

Depending on the game and the mood, I usually go for no music at all. However, for the German fans amongst us, I found a number of military tunes using the search feature on WinMX. One of my favorites is the marching song "Erika". Great for an Eastern Front game. Of course, on WinMX you can find the soundtracks for just about every movie you can think of--I got the main themes for "Glory" and "Gettysburg" there. If you want some good war music, or whatever else, that's a good place to start. (Sorry about the plug, it's for historical information only) <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">

My 'playlist':

Agressive ones: Iron Maiden, Anthrax, Cypress Hill
Softer: Enya, Moby, Gladiator

I'd like to play some classical too, unfortunately I haven't had change to do much research here. Any ideas?

All those, and some others too...Theme from Zulu, Memphis Belle, Top Gun, Battle of the Bulge (German Armor Song), Victory at Sea, Air Force One (great sound), Once Before I Die, Battle of Britain, and so on.

I have two cassette tapes full of great stuff. Here, I got to go turn it on right now!

The Wagner's music (Valquiria??) which the commander of the heli squadron used on "Appocalipse Now" should give a heroic mood <img src="cool.gif" border="0">

Since we are talking about music I invite everybody to join the Morpheus community. They have the best mp3 search engine I ever known. I'm part of it and downloaded more than 500 musics so far. Simply great! The next search will be the Ride of the Valkiries <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

Try this adress for the download and subscrition, if it doesn't work please let me know:

Hi.
I don't play music that often, when i play SPWaW, but when I do, the country I play, migth be a factor. When playing the Soviet Union, the Soviet National Anthem, sung by the Red Army Choir, is nice. It goes great to Stalin Organs. Playing Germany, I have a CD with a lot of German marches, that fits well, even if the marches is actually written pre-WW1.

I believe that would be 'Flight of the Valkyries'.

And where can I d/l that Soviet anthem? I've tried looking on Morpheus and gotten nothing under Soviet or Russian...

Nope. It's "Ride of the Valkyries" alright. Try it at Morpheus. It will work....
Try also "russian marches" with audio selected, discovered two from the red army choir.

The Topgun SOundtrack was actually the first CD I bought, oh yes back in the old days (snip). Back than you actually had to buy the whole freakin CD if you'd liked only one song in particular (the Topgun movie theme, naturally).
