Message: ...Fire in the sky... Yeah!
But how about Black Sabbath??
Elton John's "Saturday Night's All Right For Fighting" is a good Blitz number, too, as is the Stones' "Paint it Black" and "Brown Sugar". You reckon there's a pattern emerging here??
Cheers,
Ion

Message: ...is bound to be obscure, Balada by Ciprian Porumbescu. It's just long enough for a decent blitz game. For those who love violin concertos, this will tickle your fancy.

Message: ... I had forgotten Hendrix (How could I???), but nearly included Steppenwolf numbers (Magic Carpet Ride is a longtime favorite). How about Led Zep's "When the Levee Breaks" for a pawn storm against the King? Or Jethro Tull's "Locomotive Breath"? Or Grace Slick pounding out "White Rabbit"? Or Velvet Underground: "I'm Waiting for my Man" or, better yet, "Venus in Furs". I rather think the latter is best for those positional squeezes rather than tactical melees - the moves are coming fast, but events are developing a little more slowly...

Message: The Walker Brothers' "Time" ... and the last couple of numbers on Patti Smith's "Easter" album ought to quicken the pulses (can't remember their titles ... something about the 25th floor?) ...
"Working on the Road" followed by "50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain" by Ten Years After for some lighthearted Blitz...
Cheers,

Message: ...so I would have to go for anything with "The Atomic b****wax".
Their latest(?) album have a version of Deep Purples Maybe I'm a leo on it (no so crazy though, but very nice).
But maybe Metallica - Blitzkrieg or The Ramones - Blietz Krieg Bop could work also?

5/24/2006 07:51:53 play online chess | If I apply this criterium ...
Message: I should put in the "Greatest hits" CD of Queen when analyzing one of my current games. Unfortunately Freddy M. doesn�t tell anything about the colour in his song "Killer Queen", so I am still unsure about the result, but I know:
"To avoid complications she never kept the same adress" - which tells me that I should think about Queen moves in first priority.
Another game may soon be supported by "We will double-rook you", and then I hope for the last track on this CD. Guess what!

I'm surprised no one's yet put System of a Down up here. Or should that be reserved for bullet
games? (what would be good blitz songs by them: Attack, Chop Suey, Aerials, B.Y.O.B.,
Dreaming, and Revenga, to name a few)
