Ok don't kill me, but I've searched as much as possible and if I get a good response I'll del/close the topic, but does anybody have a half complete list of the music used in the front of the park for the midway music and a good list of the Halloweekends music used in the same location? It's a nice little reminder of the fun I had at the point last year and the great fun I'll have this year . I thank you for your time :-D

So far all I have is:
Regular Season:
Funkytown

Halloweekends:
Stevie Wonder - Superstition
Carmina Burana (O Fortuna)

I also like collecting the songs I have to listen to on a regular day basis at the entrance of Twister, so I also have:
Trapt - Headstrong
Crystal Method - The Winner

And FINALLY, some of the other songs heard around the park such as:
(Dragster) Republica - Ready to go
Any others would be greatly appreciated... Now back to homework

------------------
'04 Twister ATL
'03 Twister/Sky Ride (Spent month@Disaster too)

Thriller by Micheal Jackson was a song during halloweekends!!!

------------------
2004 THE YEAR OF THE BEAVER
2004- TL Caddy Cars
2003- ATL Matterhorn Triangle/ Caddy Cars

I got a lot of the Halloweekends songs after taking someone's advice and selecting order by rank instead of date and found the halloweekends one with a pretty good list (albeit they didn't have Carmina Burana which is the song I think I remember the most)

------------------
------------------
'04 Twister ATL
'03 Twister/Sky Ride (Spent month@Disaster too)

Where's Rob when you need him...

------------------
2004 - ATL Mantis
2003 - Mantis
2002 - Mantis
2001 - S.C. Foods Supervisor

I know when I worked in 1999 at Kid Arthurs Court, I remember a song being played by New Kids on The Block; Step by Step. They played it everyday.....

Charlie Daniels

Don't forget the classic Mantis songs from 1996!

Sheryl Crow-All I Wanna Do

Hootie and the Blowfish-Only Wanna Be With You

Shania Twain-If You're Not in it for love, I'm outta here (or whatever it's called)

I know that there are more but my mind escapes me now. I know that they play Stars and Stripes at the front of the park at the entrance, along with John Williams' Olympic Fanfare and Theme.

------------------
Jeff Young

One of the regular season songs is "Devil with a Blue Dress On".

Some songs they play in the dragster area I have, like "Little Less Conversation" by Elvis and "Pink Cadillac" by Aretha Franklin I believe. They also play a lot of Beach Boys.
------------------
Final 2003 Stats: Trips: 37
Top Thrill Dragster: 17
Magnum XL-200: 85 (last train of the year in 6-1)

The specific version of Conversation is the JXL Radio Edit Remix.

(And if you really want to hear a lot of the Beach Boys, hang out in Soak City for an hour. That's got to drive the SC staff nuts.)

Dragster: Hot Rod Lincoln, and a song by I think hoopastank (at least that is what someone told me).

Mantis: Don't forget Love Shack by the B-52's!

------------------ There is Answers in Genesis

By TTD, I know they play I Can't Drive Fifty-Five. I think they also play You Can Go Your Own Way, too.

Gimme Some Lovin' has been a Main Midway staple for a long time.

In Coasters Cafe, you always here Doo Wah Diddy and a lot of Beach Boys.

Along with Funkytown, Johnny Rocket's is darn near infamous for constantly playing that and Love Shack.

The Knack - My Sharona

The Gin Blossoms - Found out about you

The Cranberries - Linger

Bare Naked Ladies - If I had a million dollars

Counting Crows - Mr. Jones

Garth Brooks - Friends in low places

Deep Blue Something - Breakfast at Tiffany’s

France Joli: Come To Me

------------------
Eddy the retard is awesome.

Freeway of Love is Aretha Franklin, Pink Cadillac is Natalie Cole, Go Your Own Way is Fleetwood Mac, I Can't Drive 55 is Sammy Hagar.

I can also suggest: Modern Woman (Billy Joel), Boot Scootin' Boogie (Brooks & Dunn?).

If you e-mail me privately, I can take my extensive list from my home computer and send it to you in an attachment. I spent an afternoon right after the park closed looking for music to make a couple of CDs to satisfy the off season blues.

Awww, bad day? Take a different perspective on things. Try upside down, a barrel roll, a cobra roll or a corkscrew. Life can't be all that bad when your feet are over your head!

Lets see....on the midway you just can't forget Dave Matthews Band Ants Marching

For Dragster I remember Pink Cadillac, Hot Rod Lincoln, Little Deuce coupe, there was the theme music from Gone in 60 seconds.

------------------
Monster/W.W. Crew '04
Monster/W.W. Crew '03

Witchy Woman - Eagles (Halloweekends)

Ready To Go - Republica (TTD)

Oh Fortuna - Red Army Choir (Halloweekends)

Crawling In the Dark - Hoobastank (TTD)

You can not believe how annoying a 1hour and 15 minute loop can get after you hear it for about a hundred days stright. At least this past season they added a few new songs. The Beach boys mega mix is the bomb. But they also got rid of a few like the song from night at the roxburry . That one was awesome because you could just stand there and see a whole crew of guards bobbing their heads to it. In my opinion they should let the employees pick the music. Were the ones that have to hear day in and day out for the whole season. There would be guidelines of course and all songs would have to be submitted to management for approval that way it would be sure to be suitable for a family environment.

Wow, nobody mentioned Radar Love by Golden Earing for one of the Dragster songs. I love that song. While not on any midway loop (although I've heard the DJ's play it many times) I can't hear U2's "Elevation" without thinking of CP, Millennium Force in particular.

Edit: Also in Frontier Town, they played a country version of "Summertime Blues". I'm personally a much bigger fan of The Who's original version of that song, but then again, The Who rock.
