Title: Battle songs
Post by: F-14 Ace on June 14, 2009, 11:28:01 PM

These are some classic songs about famous battles throughout history.  I especially like the Battle of New Orleans.  I know these songs aren't exactly historicly accurate but I still enjoy listening to them anyway.  Feel free to share any others that you like.

Almost every track by Sabaton (Swedish power metal band) relates to a war or battle of some sort.

Primo Victoria (one of my favorites) is specifically about D-Day.

Hello:
 It has been some time since I last heard that song :DD .
 Another good one would be Chronologie Part 4, aslo by Jean Michel Jarre.

 A good song for a battle would be Tarawa, that one is from a movie that Icannot remember the name, but it became more known as it was played in Matrix: Revolutions

What no soundtrack music? :p :o

"The Battle" from Gladiator (Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerard) puts you in the mood for a fight!  All you Pirates of the Caribbean fans will definitely recognize this track but just remember, Gladiator was made first. ;)  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgARus5JFQY (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgARus5JFQY)
