Dance the night away by the mighty Van Halen..

my favorite band

uuuuuummmmmmmmmm....Our National Anthem!

LOL!

Anyways, I don't know the name of any of the songs I've heard at Kings Island except for "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Which, of course I'm only 15, so I wasn't around when most of the artists were huge hits in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and even the early 00s because I can't remember back then.

I am very impressed that a 15 year old actually knows how to spell Lynyrd Skynyrd's name correctly! Way to go!

Pink Floyd- Fearless.

Walking out of the park. The most surreal moment I've ever had in the park. Due to a conversation had about this album 15 min. before.

Journey-Stone in love plays early in the morning the past 2 times I have went it's played around 9:20.

its a mater of time before the park gets rick rolled at the rate that song is travelin around cincy.

With my luck, it will be the day I go.

Tom Petty- Runnin Down a Dream

'The Shape I'm In' by The Band-very surprised and impressed by that..The Band always reminds me of Rivertown. 'Blinded By the Light' is a classic as well, and 'The Seeker ' by The Who in The Beast line. All great to hear

The $64 question is whether the soundtrack in Boomerang Bay will consist of more than six to nine Beach Boys tunes this year...

Speaking of Boomering Bay, does anyone know a tune on the sound track that goes, I think, like this: " We're all over the sun," then a chorus "sun, sun, sun, sun, sun, sun, sun, sun, sun, sun". Is it the Beach Boys or Jan and Dean or some other group? I'm trying to find it on Google. Help, Terpie.

No...it goes "We're having fun, fun, fun in the warm California sun!"

The Rivieras:

Or is it another?

That's not the song I was thinking of. I am sure the one I am thinking of goes" sun, sun, sun sun..." it is not a very well known song but they used to play it on the sound track at Water Works, then brought it back after Boomering Bay went back to the regular beach music. It sounds like the Beach Boys or Jan and Dean, probably Jan and Dean.

Seasons In The Sun by The Beach Boys?

You're kidding? I never knew they recorded that. Sorry, not the one I am thinking of.

I don't think anyone has mentioned "If You Had My Love" by Jennfier Lopez aka J-Lo lol! I definitely heard that in line for The Beast on the 10th. I only remember because me and my sister began to dance in line.

Yeah, it's kinda funny (And sad) how the majority of the newer generation (Even those who claim to be fans) can't spell the name correctly, lol.

That would be "I Live For The Sun" by The Sunrays

Olidesmann, that was sweet! That reminds me of my surfer music obsession when i was in high school. Granted that was in the early 90's when everyone around me was into the "grunge" phase of music. Thank goodness i stayed away from that stuff!

When I was a teenager, music that was 20 years old really sounded "old" because stereo recording technologies hadn't "leveled off" yet. I couldn't enjoy 60s music (except the Beatles, who were using such different chord progressions and harmonies than many of their contemporaries) because it sounded tinny and "AM Radio"-ish.

It makes me wonder if teenagers today can pinpoint whether a song was recorded before or after they were born just by the sound of the mix? I can listen to "Cult of Personality" by Living Colour (1988), "All of My Love" by Led Zeppelin (1979), and "Cyanide" by Metallica (2008) all in order, and it sounds like they could all have been recorded in the same year, but put in "Paint it Black" by the Rolling Stones (1966) and it sounds out of place among the rest.

"Finding My Way" by Rush;

SERIOUSLY?? Wow. I heard Closer to the Heart there recently, which is much more likely to be heard than Finding My Way. But I guess if this is satellite radio, then anything's possible.

Other notables:

- "Lamb Lies Down" (Genesis)

- "Night Flight" (Zeppelin)

- a couple Yes tunes

"Finding My Way" by Rush;

SERIOUSLY?? Wow. I heard Closer to the Heart there recently, which is much more likely to be heard than Finding My Way. But I guess if this is satellite radio, then anything's possible.

Seriously! And timely, too, because it was about the time everyone was finding their way to the parking lot. I'm a huge Rush fan, so I know that was the song. The level at which they were playing it did no justice to the song. The Geddy Lee screech becomes unnerving when overmodulated.

I remember hearing "Finding My Way" too. It was late in the day (I think it was opening day) and we were finding our way over to the carousel to get a ride on that before it closed.

Oddly enough, speaking of carousels, I was getting on Nick-O-Round when I heard "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" by Genesis which dakota2112 had mentioned. My ears automatically perk up when I hear that piano intro since I very seldom hear it outside of my playing the cd.

On opening day I heard Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth" over the loudspeakers right before the Gold Pass holders were unleashed to Diamondback. Anyone find it ironic that this song is on the Forrest Gump soundtrack?

Band on the Run- Paul McCartney

I also herd One Love by Bob Marley, except it wasn't Bob who was singing it...

I've heard tyhe Chicken Dance near Festhaus before...

A couple of interesting things to note about "I Live For The Sun" (courtesy of Wikipedia)

The song only hit #51 in the US, but was a #1 hit in Australia (ironic considering that BB is Australian themed)

The band's manager was the father of Brian, Carl and Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys

This past Sunday I heard "First Time" by Lifehouse as I was exiting Spongebob. Although I was a bit surprised to hear it, I'm glad they played it because I'm a big fan of both that song and the band in general.

I wish they had their own, excellent music. I think it could really add to the atmosphere.

I miss the paramount music that used to be played.

I heard them play Maroon 5- Must get out When I went this past Saturday.

I've actually heard in coney Mall Lisa Stansfield All Around The World and Debarge All this love
