In the beginning there was silence and darkness
All across the earth
Then came the wind and a hole in the sky
Thunder and lightning came crashing down
Hit the earth and split the ground
Fire burned high in the sky
From down below fire melted the stone
The ground shook and started to pound
The gods made heavy metal and they saw that it was good
They said to play it louder than hell
We promised that we would
When losers say it’s over with you know that it’s a lie
The gods made heavy metal and it’s never gonna die
We are the true believers
It’s our turn to show the world
In the fire of heavy metal we were burned
It’s more than our religion it’s the only way to live
But the enemies of metal we can’t forgive
Cause we believe in the power and the might
And the gods who made metal are with us tonight
The gods made heavy metal and they saw that it was good
They said to play it louder than hell
We promised that we would
When losers say it’s over with you know that it’s a lie
The gods made heavy metal and it’s never gonna die
We believe in the power and the might
And the gods who made metal are with us tonight
We’re here tonight for heavy metal are you ready in the hall
They have chosen us and we have heard the call
Gonna tear the roof off with out sound
Crack the walls and shake the ground
Fight tonight for metal one and all
Cause we believe in the power and the might
And the gods who made metal are with us tonight
The gods made heavy metal and they saw that it was good
They said to play it louder than hell
We promised that we would
When losers say it’s over with you know that it’s a lie
The gods made heavy metal and it’s never gonna die

pink floyd is my choice when in the woods. If i'm partying or out in a club, i prefer DMB, Jack Johnson, good reggae.
Hiking I like to listen to Nature
At camp, I listen to Grateful Dead (duh), Blue Grass, YMSB, Pink Floyd, Neil young... you get the idea.
While you were waiting to be created, I was evolving.
I was beginning to think I was the only hard bopper here. That guy you can't remember is Dexter Gordon.
Wold, you aren't thr first person I've run into who liked Pink Floyd in the woods. I'm still not sure. I've got Dark Side of the Moon cued up right now on iTunes.
For myself, Whatever comes into my head. One of the nice things about having been a musician/singer for so long is that the jukebox in my head is well stocked and doesn't need batteries.

Yeah...Pink Floyd is music good for all occasions. Meddle is one of their best albums. I used to love Dark Side of the Moon until I ran across that CD. Obscured by Clouds is ...different... but good as well. It is interesting to listen to all of their stuff and see how the band found their musical style. A lot of the early stuff reminded me of the Doors like 'Set the Controls' and such.
Coldplay is not bad, and I got into them for awhile. I like classic rock mainly, like Boston, the Stones, Neil Young, Journey - and of course Blue Oyster Cult! More COWBELL...yes more cowbell indeed (for those of you who missed that reference, you missed one of the funniest SNL episodes EVER)

grrickar, I'm listening to Echoes right now... Still, think I prefer "Animals" over "Meddle". Either way, ya just cant go wrong with some Floyd.Is it just me or is "Wish you were Here" a universal camp fire song?

My iPod takes 8 strings, 1 pick, 0 batteries, and plays any song in any genre that I can remember...
(yes, it even plays Pink Floyd, and lots of it, as long as there's a guitarist around to lead...)

I don't see "silence" on the list.
It's right there under folk ... see the "Simon & Garfunkel" option?

If it was Jester, it might have been Neil Diamond, but I doubt it was the King. However, some of it was blasting from my campsite in the Dryland vicinity behind Mala's canopy during traildays...along with Mercyful Fate, Danzig, Helstar, Iron Maiden, Dark Tranquility among others like Hot Tuna and Roy Buchannan...in between bluegrass jams round the fire...and one late night playing of Venom's live classic "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik".
Check out the Anthrax song "Among the Living" here quoted...
