Coaches,

Need your help for recommendations for songs for our hi-lite tape. In the past our head coach has allowed our kids to make the hi-lite tape, but as we all know the majority of the music that they listen to these days is not very appropriate!! The past 2 years our head coach was not very impressed with the kids who made the tape and did not allow them to sell the tape to the kids and parents. Because of this we have lost $$$, because we have made 500.00 in the previous years. This year I have taken the responsibiltiy of making the tape, but I want to make sure we have great choices in music so the tape will sell and be a piece that the kids will show their kids 20 years from now.

Thanks!!

JD

It was simply awesome. Here's a link for the NFL Films CD: www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00000DGUH/104-0268154-2419943?v=glance

I think that it was called "It's My Life". Your right about AC/DC, especially anything from their live albums.

In the movie the WaterBoy (adam sandler), just when he starts lighting people up Tom Sawyer by Rush comes on in the background. It rocks. I'd recommend it, especially cuz the first line starts w/ " a modern day warrior...." which is what our kids are!

AC/DC is great. Livin on a Prayer is great. We used it and "My Life" last year. We have used some NFL films music also. Springsteen's "Glory Days" is a personal favorite...even though it has a baseball reference. This year we used some hip hop "Let's Get it Started" and that Usher song "Yeah" I think it is called, along with Lil' John & Trickdaddy's Let's GO (edited version). This year's tape has multiple genres of music while years past have been focused around one type. I have the kdis submit a list but I have the final say because if it is controversial it comes back to me.

Some of those older episodes of NFL Films can actually bring tears to your eyes because they are so dramatic!

They're simply fantastic. "Go Tigers" has a song on the DVD: I think it's called Touchdown Town or Friday Night. The words are pretty cool.

Coaches -
I hate to play this role - unfortunately it's in my nature! - but a word of caution on your highlight tapes. Depending on your administration, you could be putting yourself in hot water - if you have an overzealous librarian, or a stickler principal that is looking for a reason to get on your case, selling tapes with music on it is a copyright violation. Most of us will never have to worry about this BUT...if....you need a synchronization license to do this legally....

I know most of us are comfortable taking our chances, but I'd hate for anyone using this board to unwittingly do it....

I like Molly Hatchett -Flirting with Disaster, --- and when you need an intro or a close you can't go wrong with the Top Gun Anthem -- and don't forget the 80's -- Lunatic Fringe (Visionquest) by Red Rider....

But I only use those on my personal copies so I don't break any laws! wink....

Coaches, thanks for the great ideas!!! I also submitted a request to the players (thanks groundchuck) and they came up with some good ones as well.

Rollin' by big and rich (a country song from the kids!!)

Fuel by Metallica

You Gotta another thing C'mon Judis Priest

The kids also had a good idea I thought I would share. Some of the guys made our team on the "College Football 2005" for Ps2 w/ names on the jersey's etc.... They said at the beginning of the game it shows the team running out on to the field, warmups etc.. They said they can record that on to a VHS tape for me to put on the hi-lite tape. It will have Lee Corso and Kurk Hurbstreet (spelling) talking about the team and some of the players.

Its worth taking a look at .

Good Hilight Video Songs (fun topic btw, my ideas mirror those of many others out here it seems):

Van Halen: Dreams, Right Now, Top of the World
Bon Jovi: Living on a Prayer, It's My Life
Guns N' Roses: Welcome to the Jungle
AC/DC: Thunderstruck, Back In Black
POD: Alive
Bush: Machine Head
Touch (Rocky IV Soundtrack): Sweetest Victory
Survivor (Rocky III Soundtrack): Eye of the Tiger
Cake: Going the Distance
Foo Fighters (Varsity Blues Soundtrack): My Hero
LL Cool J: Knock You Out
Ludicrous: Move! (suggest the edited radio version)
Metallica: Whiskey in the Jar
Wagner: Ride of the Valkyries (classical, used in "Apocalypse: Now" when the helicopters attack the village)
Black Eyed Peas: Let's Get it Started!
System of a Down: Chop Suey
Disturbed: Prayer

Many, many more! Hilight films with appropriate music always give me goosebumps / chills!

JUST A COMMENT ON THIS TOPIC; DID YOU EVER NOTICE THAT THE APPROPRIATE SONG FOR SOME TEAMS WOULD BE " EYE OF THE TIGER " WHILE FOR OTHERS " BRAHMS LULLABY " WOULD BE APROPOS?
JUST LIKE TEAM MASCOTS VARY, ONCE COACHED IN A TOWN WHERE THE LOCAL HS WAS CALLED "THE BLUE HERONS" AND THEIR COLORS WERE BLUE AND YELLOW (NOT GOLD) LIGHT BLUE AT THAT. SEEMS THAT THEY HAD TO HONOR THE WISHES OF AN OLD DOWAGER WHO DONATED THE LAND TO BUILD THE SCHOOL ON, AND HER ONE STIPULATION WAS THAT THE TEAM WOULD ALWAYS BE CALLED THE BLUE HERONS AND THE SCHOOL COLORS WOULD ALWAYS BE AS DESCRIBED ABOVE. I THINK I WOULD HAVE TOLD HER TO KEEP THE LAND! HEHEHE

Coach -

We have a couple of wacky mascots in Illinois.

One of the teams in our conference is the Polo Marcos.

The city of Freeport is the home of the Pretzels (there is actually two Illinois high school teams that use the "Pretzel" moniker)

But my personal favorite, the one that really takes the cake, is the Fisher High School Bunnies.

How would you like to be a Bunny for four years?

That tops my story! How in the world do you get guys to play hard when they are called the bunnies? Are the school colors pink and white? Although I guess it could have the reverse effect of the old Johhny Cash song; A BOY NAMED SUE

Who else is the Pretzels? And a little history behind why Freeport is the Pretzels. At one time there was a Brewery in town which employed quite a few people (this is like early 1900s). I guess people thought it inappropriate to name a high school team the Brewers. So what goes good with beer...nuts, pizza, pretzels. Pretzels sounded best I guess.
