Jonay 0 #1 June 3, 2009 Hey happy people A while ago I started this /cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3515969;page=unread#unread thread about a skydiving song. Some of you provided me with great information. So I want to inform you that the song is ready. The lyrics are mainly based on the following information by some of you members: wmw999: On the plane trip up, new people more so than experienced (at least from what I hear) get tenser and tenser on the way up. Right before exit there's that feeling of delicious anticipation when all of the senses are pretty peaked with anticipation for the jump that's just about to happen. CygnusX-1 What do you think of just before you take a step out? UP - DOWN - OUT or READY - SET - GO PeregrineFalcon I'm relaxed. Getting my helmet and goggles on, I'm elated. Slapping the hands of the skydivers right before the green light, I feel brotherly. Then the door opens and...UNPARALLED excitement. sacamaca...If I really had to use words they would be: amazing, liberating, exhilarating, breathtaking....Without the spark of any distraction that you normally deal with every minute of your everyday life Baksteen: a skydiver who jumps from 12.000 feet and...Many special terms are listed here. besides that information I have also of course added my own vision of skydiving, so here is the final result: I hope you enjoy the song, and if you don't well you only need to turn off the stereo :) and to show my appreciation I give a shout to your lovely community at the end of the song. thanks again the song url1: http://jonay.com/Jonay_Ft_Jasmine_Kara_-_Skydiving.mp3 url2: http://blog.jamendo.com/2009/06/03/by-popular-demand-a-song-about-skydiving/ cheers, Jonaywww.jonay.com twitter.com/jonaycom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CygnusX-1 42 #2 June 3, 2009 Yea, I'm in a song for the first time! I, of course, will require my standard royalty of free back stage passes to any concert you have in Florida. Too bad I'm at work and can't listen to it here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may be the style or the effects, but I can only understand about half the lyrics, so you might make those available, since they are based on some things you have received from your fellow jumpers.

Cutaway68 4 #6 June 3, 2009 Very nice. I foresee that being mixed into quite a few tandem vids. Don't Pull Low... Unless You ARE!!! The pessimist says, "It can't get any worse than this." The optimist says, "Sure, it can." Be fun, have safe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tumbler 0 #17 June 7, 2009 I liked it. As I listened I tried to picture working that into my tandem videos... and struggled with a song to complement this one on the video... So, my only recourse is to ask that you make another to go with this one!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
