What are some baseball songs?
I’m making a movie with pictures and videos for my brothers baseball team. What are some songs about baseball I can use in the video? Thanks.
I already have take me out to the ball game and centerfield.
Do you know others??
Things to look for:
Whether the song is fast or slow, you want something with a strong beat that you can cut to (or set action to). For example, you can do many things with a big drum or cymbal hit; bat hits ball, ball hits mitt on strikeout, players high-five, player pumps fist in celebration.
Look for something upbeat. That can mean something fast, but it can also be something slow and powerful. If they won a championship, for example celebrations and trophy/medal presentations look great in slow motion with a slower song.
Lyrics are important. If you’re going to use a song with lyrics, make sure the message of the song is at least somewhat relevant to the video. Don’t just pick a song because it sounds cool, but has nothing to do with the content.
There are songs that are not necessarily about baseball, but can be used in a video such as this. For example, any epic-sounding movie track; for example, stuff from “Pirates of the Caribbean” or “Rocky” can work.
Other good ones, for lyrics and sound:
“Eye of the Tiger” – Survivor (I’ve used this once for HS baseball)
“Dream On” – Aerosmith (Used it 1x for HS baseball, 1x for college soccer)
*Also, check out on Youtube “First 100 Years of Sports” – great ESPN video, this song was used for the last part.
“Takin’ Care of Business” – Bachman Turner Overdrive
“All Star” – Smash Mouth
“We Will Rock You” – Queen
“Final Countdown” – Europe
Keep in mind, you don’t have to use the whole song. A concise video packed with action is better than one that goes on for a long time when there isn’t enough great media to fill that time. You can cut the song so that you hear one or two key verses, a chorus, and an instrumental part, for example. Some of the above songs go on for four minutes or more. The trick is to remove parts of a song without leaving the sound of an obvious cut.
Those songs up there are just a few possibilities, but there are so many others out there to work with. Be creative, you’ll find something good!

Coyote Ugly $1.33 As a producer, Jerry Bruckheimer makes movies for guys, mostly action films like Top Gun and Gone in 60 Seconds. The ones he makes that feature women, such as Flashdance and now Coyote Ugly, broaden their appeal with a fondness for “strong women.” For Bruckheimer, that means self-determined, attractive women who don’t need men to get what they want. Is there anything sexier than that? In Coyote U… |

The Beat Goes On: The Best of Sonny & Cher $3.87 Sonny Bono was a record-biz vet by the time he hooked up with a teenaged female singer named Cher. After a 1963 flop under the name Caesar and Cleo, the pair clicked with “I Got You Babe,” a leap onto the folk-rock bandwagon that made them America’s favorite pseudohippies for a brief moment. Cher’s less-than-dulcet tones never sounded better than when placed next to Sonny’s nasal croak. As for Son… |

Songs Of The Sea – Songs Of The Shore $10.09 In youth the author’s heart put to sea to search for a love that stands the tests of time. Now, he and his wife go on missions of mercy, occasionally by sea; and the small ketch they call "Tiare Maori" is being prepared to sail on "the wings of the dawn". The Vinson family’s "Uncle Carl" is known as the "patriarch" and "father of the two ocean navy"; the author’s dream is to see a fleet of vessels commissioned for service in the Kingdom of God, flying Christ’s ensign and setting sail to spread an aroma of blossomed "Loving-kindness" with which God desires to crown every life. |

The Songs Of Hollywood $15.09 From "Over the Rainbow" to "Moon River" and from Al Jolson to Barbra Streisand, The Songs of Hollywood traces the fascinating history of song in film, both in musicals and in dramatic movies such as High Noon. Extremely well-illustrated with 200 film stills, this delightful book sheds much light on some of Hollywood&apos;s best known and loved repertoire, explaining how the film industry made certain songs memorable, and highlighting important moments of film history along the way. The book focuses on how the songs were presented in the movies, from early talkies where actors portrayed singers "performing" the songs, to the Golden Age in which characters burst into expressive, integral song–not as a "performance" but as a spontaneous outpouring of feeling. The book looks at song presentation in 1930s classics with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers and in 1940s gems with Judy Garland and Gene Kelly. The authors also look at the decline of the genre since 1960, when most original musicals were replaced by film versions of Broadway hits such as My Fair Lady. |

Songs On Bronze $5.79 A vivid, uninhibited retelling of the classic Greek stories Songs on Bronze is the first major retelling of Greek mythology in half a century; a set of lively, racy, dramatic versions of the great myths, which, in a multicultural society, are recognized more than ever as stories without equal. Most of us would like to know the Greek myths better than we do, and books like Seamus Heaney’s Beowulf have demonstrated the power of ancient texts to enchant and enthrall us. And yet the modern translations of the Greek myths have sought to instruct, to edify, or to impart a personal philosophy. Songs on Bronze is different. With this book, Nigel Spivey–a young Cambridge classicist and rising star as a documentary host–gives us the Greek myths as the spellbinding stories they are. In bold, sensuous prose, he tells of Demeter and Persephone, of Jason and the Argonauts, of the wrath of Achilles and the travels of Odysseus, of Oedipus’s crime and Orpheus’s excursion into the underworld. In his hands, these stories are revealed anew as outsize tales of love and strife, of secret compacts and open rivalries, of lust and desire. Songs on Bronze is a fresh revision of the classics that is likely to become a classic in its own right. |

Travelling Songs $5.29 Simon Armitage once observed that there are two types of poems – those that try to work out the chemical equation for language and those that tell stories and sings songs. These are very much the latter a handful of lyrics and verses written over number of years many being commissioned to celebrate or commemorate public events others being part of larger projects in theatre radio and television. Erotic witty flippant poignant and always melodic Travelling Songs is a kind of busker’s handbook the kind of work that might win a poet a decent meal when singing for his supper. Or as the author comments ‘Describing yourself as a poet is often seen as a challenge or even an alibi. In those circumstances it’s worth having a few tunes up your sleeve to prove it.’ |
