Batting/Pitching music

I think most MLB players get to chose 1-3 songs to play when they get to the plate/mound, what would your three songs be?  My first one wouldn't change throughout this long-lasting thread, but I can see the other two changing every once in a while.

1) 2 Skinnee J's - Irresistable Force
2) Stat Quo - Like Dat
3) probably anything that Jeffrey Hammonds is jamming out to these days

[mikehughes]

Whats the deal with Jeffery Hammonds ?

[Nat of the Living Dead]

Whats the deal with Jeffery Hammonds ?

Considering your players of choice, are you really going to question his his?

[Nat of the Living Dead]

1.) Bulls On Parade - Rage Against the Machine
2.) Feel So Numb - Rob Zombie
3.) Voodoo Child - Jimi Hendrix

[Obed_Marsh]

Some collection of these:
Rage Against The Machine - Guerilla Radio- Starting at "It has to start somewhere"
Public Enemy & Anthrax - Bring the noise- Starting at last chorus of Bring the Noise-
Nelly - Here Comes The Boom (Chorus)
Buju Banton- Champion- Starting from second Me wanna walk like a champion

[hammondsnats]

haha yeah bulls on parade is definitely under strong consideration.  i kinda like elvis costello - chelsea as well

[sportsfan882]

I liked Rauch's song he used to come out to by Audioslave.

Some other good ones:
Disturbed - down with the sickness
Three Days Grace - Animal I have become
Avenged Sevenfold - almost easy

[Nat of the Living Dead]

The intro to "I'm Shipping Up to Boston" by Dropkick Murphys is pretty bad ass too.

[UMDNats]

probably something by kenny chesney

[PANatsFan]

Blistering death metal for closers, adult contemporary for lefty specialists, that "fat guy tuba music" that Stewie plays for guys like Adam Dunn should be mandated by MLB.



Psychological warfare for the opposing team would be nice too, like this song after a bad strikeout:

[Air Zimmerman]

basically any T.I. classic. right now, i'd go with T.I.- on top of the world.

[cmdterps44]

Some collection of these:
Rage Against The Machine - Guerilla Radio- Starting at "It has to start somewhere"

Nailed it on the head, this was my number one choice, but the music starts right at the start of the song. Rising up to the awesome guitar and drums.

Rage Against the Machine - Guerilla Radio

Blink 182 - Stockholme Syndrome


Editors - Munich



Honorable Mentions

ELO - Mr Blue Sky


Young Joc - Hear me Coming (not a fan of the song but its funny how it starts off about people fearing about him coming (me coming to the plate)) -- cant find a link


New Radicals - You Only Get What You Give (hahah just love the song)

[sportsfan882]

haha. new radicals. i haven't heard that song in years

[shoeshineboy]

Batting walk-up music:
1) "Jumpin' Jack Flash" - Rolling Stones
2) "Eruption" - Van Halen
3) "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" - Black Sabbath

Relief Pitching warm-up music:
"The End" - Doors

[ronnynat]

Mama Said Knock You Out

Isn't the end like 15 minutes long?


3) is excellent, but personally I would go for probably NIB.

[blue911]

Devo- Mongoloid.

If you could see the size of my head, you'd understand.

Yeah, NIB or War Pigs would be good too. But there are some good sections of SBS that would sound great over the PA. (The opening has a similar forboding sound to Hell's Bells.

It doesn't matter how long the songs are since you only get a few seconds anyway. So it needs to have a recognizable hook, and all of these have good intros.

[MDoyle]

Fatboy Slim - Right Here, Right Now
Shinedown - Sound of Madness
Judas Priest - You've Got Another Thing Comin'

[shoeshineboy]

1.) Bulls On Parade - Rage Against the Machine
2.) Feel So Numb - Rob Zombie
3.) Voodoo Child - Jimi Hendrix

Would you use "Voodoo Chile", or "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" ?

[cmdterps44]

I would love to have Song 2 by Blur such an awesome song

[CALSGR8]

Check out this link from WeveGotHeart.com

http://wevegotheart.com/nats-imix/

It has the songs for most of the players and links to youtube and such.

[houston-nat]

The organ solo from Janacek's "Glagolitic Mass"
"Highway" - The Fireman
"Uranus, The Magician" from Holst's "The Planets"

I'd be the only guy in the league with classical music.

BTW, mad props to Joe Beimel for choosing Johnny Cash. The dude's really growing on me.

yep, that's just such an appropriate lead in.
