I like Pink Air!
 
3 Doors Down "Duck and Run"
Black Label Society "Fire it up"
Dio "Holy Diver"
Van Halen "On Fire"
 
You Light Up My Life - Debbie Boone
Mickey - Toni Basil
Ghostbusters - Ray Parker, Jr.
Flashdance
Babe - Styx

I really like to crank up "You Light up My Life" and "Babe" and sing along at the dock.

What....no Buffet?
 
We have a "boat CD" that always ends up as the music of choice for just cruising around. We have had it for probably 15 years. It includes the following favorites:

Halcyon Days-Bruce Hornsby
Banana Republics, Lanst Mango In Paris-Buffet
Walking in Memphis-Marc Cohn
It Stoned Me & Tupelo Honey-Van Morrison

But...you know it is serious boating time when you hear Melissa by the Allman Brothers. I am not really sure how it happened but that is the first song our group plays when we get on the boat.
Everybody ends up singing with this CD...even the teenagers love it. Go figure... They are probably the only ones at UA and Auburn who know the words to any Morrison song besides Brown Eyed Girl.
 
Some of you guys are going to date yourselves!

My wife won't let me do that anymore.

Some others I like to crank up at the dock:

"Muskrat Love" - Captain and Tennille
"On and On" - Stephen Bishop
"Don't Go Breaking my Heart" - Elton John and Kiki Dee

And one of my all time favorites:

"Broken Wings" - Mr. Mister

Would that last song make it w*ngless?

Is that sarcasm? I think that is sarcasm. That is sarcasm.
