Konrad75-work: i wanna room-entering music :(

Moiche: Then you too must become super.

The best part is I get to choose th emusic.

Yesterday it was "Fade to Black".

Kai: I'd probably waste my choice on The FInal Countdown

Moiche: Today it is "Funeral" because I'm hungover.

Kai: every day.

THE FINAAAAL COUNTDOWN!

Moiche: Fuck I am totally starting this as a thread in the forum.

Aphex Twin - Come To Daddy (pappy mix)


Whenever I'll enter a room, a menacing demonic voice will chant "I WANT YOU SOUL! I WILL EAT YOUR SOUL! COME TO DADDY!" over distorted psychotic drum'n'bass, preferably scaring old ladies. Fuck yeah.

In a high school which I never actually went to, but hung out at a lot, a friend of mine did Mexican Wednesdays. He would hang out by the door and when ever someone came out of it he would play on his guitar a little Mexican ditty you often hear in old westerns when the villain enters the screen (if you play guitar, try playing an open E chord, then move it up a fret, so it's like an F without the barre, then back down). That would be my intro music.

'Iron Man' is a bit obvious isn't it?

I dunno what I'd want. Probably one of the pieces of shit my own band wrote. In fact, yeah, I'd want 'Pretentious, Moi?' to play every time I entered a room.

Don't you forget about me by the Simple Minds

Only because the Final countdown is taken.

On that note, while rehearsing in the theater one day, our teacher decided it would be fun to play "The Final Countdown" while running through the lighting cues, all 182 of them.

It resulted in probably the best laser swordfight to save the universe ever.

Right now I'm tempted to say Otis Redding's original version of "Respect", or some other similarly punchy soul tune.  The door would swing open sharply on the first BAM! of the drums and bass, and in I'd walk.

I would personally go for the segment of Ministry's "Psalm 69" where they sample a woman screaming "LIAR!!! BLASHPEMER!!!" to the sounds of a sermon and grinding guitars.

people would pay attention when I entered a room, that's for damn sure.

You're slow, quiet and boring?  <thrrrp>

The only real choice is "The Contenders" by Girls Against Boys, taken from the OST of the film of that name.  Having that track play as you enter the room instantly adds twenty pounds of muscle to your upper body and two inches to your dick.  (Ladies, we'll work something out for you.)

Now, back in high school it was "Final Countdown":  an excellent choice, to those who went with that.

In college, it was the opening bars of "Highway To Hell".

Now, it's a toss-up:

Either the opening keyboard part to Ozzy's magnum opus "Mr. Crowley" (I swear, if I ever get married,
that's in the ceremony somewhere),  or Hotei Tomoyasu's "Kill Bill Theme".  You know, the one that got
used in the car commercial.  Tell me you wouldn't want the first brass notes to hit as you walk into the room...

The part where the rocking kicks in.

Best horn fanfare ever.

All mysterious at first and then ROCKING IT INTO YOUR FACE. With the rock. And the roll.
