Football Intro Music?

[Al_4_State]

I think "Welcome to the Jungle" by GNR would be better than thunderstruck. The intro to Welcome comes off kind of like a siren, so it would be a good fade from the siren into the song, and then about 30-40 seconds into the song, it crescendos, and busts into the main part of the song. Imagining the team taking the field at that moment gives me goose bumps. August 31st cant come soon enough!

I actually like the current entrance music, however does anyone know the name of the song? I also would love the addition of the tornado siren.

I really don't dislike the current intro music either. But I've been on the "Thunderstruck" bandwagon for a long time now. It has a very good intro part to the song that I think would do well for the team coming on to the field. I think the Tornado Siren could also blare over the first minute of the song and you wouldn't miss too much.

I know it's not entirely original or compelling...but it just makes too much sense to not do it.

I agree that Thunderstruck would be a great intro. But, I also remember a while back (late 70's early 80's?) that they used to play Queen's "Another one bites the dust." That really got the crowd going.



Other possibilities:



Limelight (Rush)

Drop Dead Legs (Van Halen)

In the Evening (Zeppelin)

Enter Sandman (Metallica)

It's the theme to 1995's "Mortal Kombat" movie. Pretty recognizable song, but the Jack Trice version doesn't have any lyrics. (Probably for the best...) Although, I do think it would be pretty hilarious for the whole team to scream "MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!" at the top of their lungs just before bursting out of the gate.

I said this like 2 months ago, sirens+thunderstruck equal destruction...think about it [thunder]struck I mean were "cyclones" the storm reference works...dont over think it

 

[goonies_89]

I changed my mine, i'd rather have For Whom The Bell Tolls-Metallica!!!!

 

[cdencklau]

How about Alice Cooper's "We're all Clones"!

 

[goonies_89]

haha nice

When I was in high school, we played "The Beautiful People" by Marilyn Manson. I have never heard a song that made me want to destroy things more than that. They don't have to play the whole song; it's mainly the beginning that gets you pumped up.

Being an old Rock-N-Roller, Ronnie James Dio's Music makes you want to drive fast, drink a lot and basically have an attitude....Just what the Cyclone Offensive linemen need before a game....Hitman

To get the most impact, maybe they can combine 4-5 songs into a medley followed by the siren. Something more obtrusive than what the Huskers try to do.

I think that we need to change the music as our football team enters the field. It seems as if we have been playing this same song for about 10 years. I am not sure what we should play but I feel it is time for a change. I don't think the players or the fans get that pumped for the song that we have been playing



The Ames Tornado siren would be really cool. If we mixed some good music after it, that would make it better. What does everyone think? Has the tornado siren thing been finalized yet?



I have faith in Mr. Pollard. Whatever we change it will be for the better! [/b][/quote]

What we do now isn't bad, AC/DC thunderstruck would be great if it was turn into CYCLONESTRUCK.

Did I mention futbol?

 

[CyinCo]

How bout we play Jock Jams from 1990 over and over again. I'm sure the fans will love it.



"Are you ready for this!"

 

[wartknight]

I love welcome to the Jungle. The Vikings play it before kick-offs and it absolutely gives me a mental erection.

 

[SlyCy]

Whatever it is, let's be original. It sounds too high school to put an existing song with it. Look at the Bull's intro song. Orginal and yet famous.



I think a bass thumpin', customized techno remix of the ISU fight song would be awesome.



wicka wick wick wick wicka oh we will fight, wicka wicka wicka fight wicka wicka fight for Iowa State......

Keep in mind that the marching band blasts out Fights when the team finally runs out, *over* the music already playing through the Jack Trice sound system. So Fights on top of a different version of Fights would be a giant jumbled mess.
