What do you guys think would be some good theme songs for CP coasters? Definately Bon Jovi's "Wanted dead or alive" for Maverick. And for Raptor I would think maybe a rock song. Being at CP this past week, I do have to agree that techno does fit MF. Me and my sis were also thinking that it would be cool if you could hear the theme song the entire time you were riding the coaster. Kind of like the aerosmith's coaster at Disney. It might sound silly, but I think that would be pretty cool. :)
"You wanna, you gotta, you hafta hold on, Cedar Point...HOLD ON!"
I got two for Maverick, "Dead or Alive", like you said, and "I Wanna Be A Cowboy" by Boys Don't Cry. It's a good song and it fits the theme pretty well.

I personally like the electronic twists in this world is watching me, and it could work for any dynamic coaster. I am thinking those over-banked turns would be 13 times cooler if I could listen to "this world is watching me" while riding Millennium Force.
I think the music for TTD an MF are perfect as is. I agree that Knights of Cydonia would be good for Maverick or "Dead or alive". The ferris wheel could have "Wheel in the Sky" by Journey, and probably anything rock or techno could work for wicked twister too

For some reason I've always thought that the song Castles in the Sky would be a good theme song for Cedar Point. Not sure why....

An inverted coaster is like a ski lift gone haywire!!

Knights of Cydonia by MUSE for Maverick. Perfect Fit.
How does that fit with the western theme at all?
I think creeping over the hill of MF at 1:30 in to that video I posted above would be great because by the time the beat kicks in your screaming down the hill and then the nice "glitchy" sounds will work with the overbanked turns I think.
Plus when your on MF...doesn't it feel like the world is watching you? Or is it...you are watching the world?
