OK, we've discussed rockets in movies at length, now how about a list of songs that are rocket/spaceflight related? Obviously, this doesn't pertain specifically to model rocketry per-se, but I'm looking to put together what could become a launch-day playlist. I'll start off with the easy low-hanging fruit:
Rocket & Space Songs
Songs tangentially related
These are just what come to mind off of the top of my head. I'm sure (well, hope) there are others. Let me know what you've got and I'll keep the list at the top updated.

These are just what come to mind off of the top of my head. I'm sure (well, hope) there are others. Let me know what you've got and I'll keep the list at the top updated.
