SharkTums Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hey all! It's about that time again where we start trying to choose music for this years video. I've got a good size list already but please post any suggestions here! In particular I'm looking for a really great song to do a Powder Keg segment to. Something similar to our "doo-dah" Silver Dollar City Segment, or the Cowtown Thunderhead segment. Some kind of country or Powder Keg related high energy not quite country music! I have a few ideas, but I'm not up in all the country music! Please post below any suggestions for video music! Elissa "Thanks!" Alvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 "Another Travelin' Song" Bright Eyes ...maybe. It might be a little too un-mainstream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiBoii4392 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I'd like to see you put Heaven by DJ Sammy on a roller coaster video but im not sure it'll work okay. Download it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Force_4_ever Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 ^where do I DL it? I have an extremely obscure one for you. 1-2-3-4 by Nektar PM me and I can send you it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 It isn't country but I think it is very fitting for Powder Keg : A Blast into the wilderness ... Boom By Pod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Hill Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Rammstein's Links 2 3 4 would be a good song for a German park. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterFanatic Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Looking for some good country/rock/alt-country to put to your Powderkeg video? Try these: BR5-49 - Wild One Deke Dickerson - White Lightning Social Distortion - Ring of Fire Stray Cats - Blast Off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdaniel Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 When I heard Cowboy from Chipz for the first time, I thougt this song is like some funny songs in your videos. This song has some banjo parts which it makes a little country styled but mostly, it is pop music. Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingScooter Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 For Powderkeg: bare with me here.... Johnny Cash did a remake of Soundgardens Rusted Chains on an acoustic guitar. sure, it sounds funny, but it might work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemen Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Okay, it would be funny if you used Michael Murphy's Wildfire. It's a ridiculous schmaltzy AM radio song from the 70's-- maybe not for the 'real' video, but it would be hilaaarious. Of course, if you were to go for appropriate lyrics, there's also Prince's Hot Thing. A little more funk and less dance than your usual stuff, but it works, and has a pretty sweet hook.

coasterzak Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I know you want country music, but I hear Powder Keg and immediately think of Powerman 5000! Try one of their songs if you want something really hardcore and full of power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Thanks for all the suggestions. Can you guys reccomend any other music not for Powder Keg? We're looking for songs that would be "upbeat", "quirky", you know...you've seen our videos! It doesn't have to be mainstream, it can be obscure. But we're at the time now where we start listening to hundreds of songs and narrow it down to 20 or 30. Any help would be appreciated!!! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yero Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I don't know if you know the songs but I really think for something exploding or fits good at a video for Rollercoasters is Pluto from Bjork, but I don't think you are seaching for that kind of songs. It may fit for Powder Keg , because it starts with weird a weird up-tempo electric sound and then she sings: "Excuse me, but I just just have to..Explode" and then it gets a little bit stronger. And at the end she only screams and it really sounds like there is something verry heavy going on, verry extreme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterFanatic Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I am still disappointed that you didn't use any Cibo Matto for the Japanese clips. Those chicks are awesome. You must check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roeterich Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Not really for Powder Keg but I could think of Constant Static from New Found Glory. An other suggestion would be the whole Start Static album from Sugarcult, but you have used already some songs from this one (except "Daddy's Little Defect" which would be cool)^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgodsey Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Here are some ideas for powder keg... Vengaboys- Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom! (thinking about this for our PK video) John Lee Hooker and Others - Boom Boom (nice blues song) Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilltopper39 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Nine Inch Nails Head like a Hole would be a cool ass song for a coaster video, as far as Powder Keg goes Cowboy troy (black country Rapper) I played Chicken with A train would be kinda cool. Anything by Audioslave would be sweet to, Cochise, SHow Me how To live, or their remake of 7 Nation Army would rock Hard !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twister II Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Blink 182 - "Feeling This" Especially in the beginning when it says, "Get ready for action" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalMAN123 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 "American Idiot" by Green Day works for pretty much any video. I used it to make a Socal Coasters video and it mixed with the music pretty well. ---Brent 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 ^ Yeah, we used American Idiot for our Texas segment on last year's DVD. --Robb "Made for a GREAT opening!" Alvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I strongly suggest looking into one of my favorite bands called The Format. They make really good music that is catchy and upbeat. I highly recommend "Wait, Wait, Wait" and "The First Single" off of their Interventions & Lullabies album. The lyrics don't really have much to do with coasters, but I really think they would fit well in a video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
