What song would you guys pick for her entrance song? If possible, embed the video for it in your post so everyone can see/hear (use the youtube button to insert the link).
I think it would be awesome if she came out to the Fight Girls theme song (Katy Perry's Fingerprints). See ~1:30 into the video below:

Yeah, that's a cool song... :)

I think that song is way too overdone. I think i've heard it played before as walkout music for WWE wrestling.
Bands like Breaking Benjamin, Powerman 5000, Disturbed, Finger Eleven, Saliva, etc are used alot in UFC and WWE because its the kind of alt/numetal rock that mid-western people like to listen to. Weird thing is you rarely ever see a song sung by a female get used as walkout music for a fight, even for female mma fighters.

That's actually VERY true! Never really took much notice of that...

Then i would suggest the song "crushcrushcrush" by paramore

otherwise, for something more epic, this one:

First one is interesting if youre going for mindless techno-metal sound. It's like you're on speed.
But the requiem for a dream song is the most overused song of all time. It's the song i see most used for fanmade music videos and highlight vids.
But even if it wasnt the most overused song of all time, it wouldn't make good entrance music because by the time the song reaches the climax, Gina would have already made it into the ring and then its time for the next fighter to come out!

I love that song but its way too poppy for MMA.
-
You think it sounds like pop?....I don't i can hear the rock in it....It just sounds like that to you probaly because there is a female lead singer and female singers generally sing pop, but i could see how you think it sounds "poppish" lol.
-
People are going to agree to disagree with this topic, LOL.

DOH!
Didn't think about that, unfortunately i don't know a lot of tracks like that :'(
-
Not many people can pull off a song like that. Like Fedor, Bobb sapp, or Phil Baroni can because there is a grandioseness about them that makes the over the top dramatized entrances fit. You would have to be either 1) mythical creature, 2) some god-like figure, or 3) a super-arrogant person who thinks he is a god to make it work, like that pro wrestler, Lex "the narcissisist" Lugar.
Gina doesn't come off as almighty or anything, so i dont think it would suit her.
-
Personally I think Spitfire by The Prodigy would be a good song. At least I find that anytime I hear it, I end up thinking about Gina.
It also has a nice lead-in before the real meat of the song starts up.

Pop or no I just dont think its good entrance music. *shrug*

It takes awhile for the song to start... But I'm going to be promoting all my videos.

I like that last vid Amber!

Believe me...I have more videos for you all to choose from.

Skip to 52 seconds into the song...
"Shes so fresh & badass mean
Gina Carano im waiting till august 15th
Showtime 10:30 eastern
Gina getting too dirty no one gunna beat her
It comes down to this just one fight
Forget the past this is your night"
-
whoa that's cool! How did you find that do you know that person?
-
Right... its the shit!!!
No I don't know the person. I go on youtube every day and type in Gina Carano and I look for new videos posted. And this came up. I was so excited.
-
But i don't think she would use that as an entrance song......maybe the fight against cyborg, but she wouldn't be able to use it after that.
-

Even though you have said no to all the other videos I've posted... jk
-
Yeah, that's a nice one!
-
Do MMA fighters typically use the same entrance music for every fight?
-
I think anderson silva uses the same which is Ain't no sunshine by DMX
-
Hi Guys, here's a thought: why don't we make a song for Gina? If there's a musician/music enthusiast around here, we could absolutely do it. We all could collaborate on the lyrics. Then have someone arrange and put the music into it...
What do you think?
:)
-
sounds cool but hows it gonna be done
-
I suggest we post lyrics -- add or edit a line or two at a time. Then maybe if someone here can add the music, have him/her post a clip at youtube (or wherever).
I think it would be cool to have a song for Gina. I'm not sure if any other MMA fighter has ever had a song made for them...
Come on guys, this would be fun :)
-
That sounds like an awesome idea! I'm with you on this one. I'm already a songwriter, but I can't play an instrument, so it all just stays in my head, they lyrics, the music and I've been looking for someone to sit down with and actually put real music to it. I usually write really dark lyrics, so this one will be a challenge for me, LOL. Before we start on the lyrics, what theme are you looking at? Also, what genre? Rock, pop, alternative, etc...
-
I'm thinking of something fast, upbeat, something positive, something that fits Gina's image. It might be something alt rock. What do you think?
This would be my first time being involved in something like this, and my musical background mainly involves turning the radio on, LOL, but hopefully someone in this community could add the music. I'm hoping this will turn out great. :))
Come on, you guys... ;)
-
Hi everyone. I suggest we make the lyrics about Gina, or who she is to us. I think everyone must have some input if we make this as the topic. What do you think?
-
I know Gina is into soft metal or alternative rock, but honestly I think THIS was meant for her to enter the cage....

-
Guys and Gals, pls help us pull this plan through, this might cheer Gina up. I want vindication! All these pain will have purpose.
-
did somebody need a musician that loves metal that can has connection to writing lyrics and instruments to make beautiful music ...........for our lovely gina carano .............if so just say
Alex
-
Yes, isn't that what we've been saying? :P We can do a video for it too, I need to update my YouTube Gina tribute page:
http://www.youtube.com/ginacaranofan7
-
Hey Alex, want to jumpstart this idea? Any help would be nice. :)
Kewl channel Phoenix. Wow :)
-
If its a rematch against Cyborg and she's 100% ready...zombies More Human than Human
-
Hey Alex, want to jumpstart this idea? Any help would be nice. :)
Kewl channel Phoenix. Wow :)
all ready thinking of it.................how do you want it
-
Something rock, something that would inspire Gina, something that would say what she means to us :)
Please share some lyrics -- even a line -- and we could all add/modify/rearrange as we go. Phoenix, Alex, care to start this? :)
-
i guess
beauty unavoidable
-
How about a stanza? :)
-
ok
beauty unavoidable, your smile brings light to a darkened path .
idk
-
beauty unavoidable, your smile brings light to a darkened path .
Man, this is sweet :) More?
-
let me think ..........ill get back to you i can picture it but the words wont come out .............u know what mean
-
will be waiting for your update. the first line grabs me already :)
-
ok this is what i got so far ...this is just a draft ...it'll most likely change ....for metal the lyrics need to be dark . sound better when its sung
Beauty unavoidable, your smile brings light upon a darkened path!
On my last breath I would call for you ……just to hear you laugh!
Id walk to the end of the world ….to look into to your eyes.
Cuz you are the only one that could suppress the fire inside!
-
cool Alex! :) "Ode to Gina" is definitely on!
Everyone, please add comments, suggestions, "violent" reactions ;)
-
i have to write more ...................and change it around a bit
-
will be waiting :)
-
yeah im tryin to make it for gina ...but not jusr for gina ..for girls in general u know what im mean
-
Hi Alex,
How about something about her strength and courage? I think other girls can relate with those...
:)
-
awesome ,...............i have not really thought of anything else that i can write cuz it one of those things that u can think it but cant explain it ......ill try
-
you should def include her strength and courage, her determination, maybe also her ability to remain herself?
Yeah, great idea Bas :)
I'm so happy she has released a statement. One word: grace :)
-
ill try to fit the word grace in it
-
How sweet, our very own songwriter. ;D
-
Let the bodies hit the floor- by drowning pool
-
you got that right Ang .....ive never written a song so kinda hard ...but my vocalist for my band dude write unbelievable stuff
-
neither have I Alex, so we'll just help each other. :) I'm working on some lines but i'm still not sure about them...
Ang, you can add a line or a stanza you know ;) (wondered where u were, glad u'r back, btw)
-
yeah go ahead add some of your thought
-
I'm a little bit shy about writing things, and I have stage fright on this topic, LOL. I have no idea why I can't write these lyrics... I'm so used to writing dark, deep lyrics so this is majorly out of my comfort zone, haha. This isn't one of my best, but it's a song that I wrote a while back (I have the music and everything in my head, just need my sister to write the actual music). It is a positive song at the end:
The darkness descends
Pushing away the sun
Alone, I need to find my way through the shadows
Silence all around
Here in the dark I feel safe
As if I belong
Do I give in?
I close my eyes, the memory of the light, behind them
So warm, yet so threatening
Bright enough to burn you
The darkness feels safe
But the sun is warm
Do I stay in the shadows, the arms of comfort
Or do I step out
Risk falling or dying again?
I take on the unknown...
Knowing that I'll become all I was meant to be...
-
Just... WOW!
-
wow ...like aiki said.....very good ...im post the lyrics that my band has copywritten and post them up
-
Come on Bas, post! ;)
-
yeah post aiki you post too
-
Hmmmm. I'm still not sure about the lines I'm writing. I'll post those when I'm drunk, hahahaha -- kidding. ;) I still have to make some adjustments before posting :)
-
I'll post those when I'm drunk
DO IT
-
yeah when i posted mine i didnt edit them i am now but its not gonna be the final draft....just post them correction will be made later
-
Hmmm pressure... ;) Alex, I patterned mine after yours, for continuity. But I'm having a bit of a problem with rhyme and measure. Ang, Bas, Alex, Nutman, everyone, please, please polish these lines -- add, edit, delete, whatever. Now I'm looking for a rock to hide under. Here goes nothing...
Strength undeniable, you carry the weight of the crowd's expectations
Yet you thrive in adversity -- a valiant flower blooming in this unforgiving wild
When the fickle crowd gives you aggravations*,
Take comfort in the knowledge* that you are loved
Courage unfathomable, you face the fears that others tremble on
You tread the unknown with your heart to guide you
Amidst the chaos, you keep your head and your ground
Your courage* emboldens me when I face my demons**
* not sure if this is the right word
** the line seems awkward
-
not bad ................that was cool ....now try to edit them..im editing mine and making new ones..so just thinking and editing them :D
-
Hi Alex, please make some changes/suggestions/corrections on those lines. I tried, but... :P
Bas, come on, post your lines -- they're bound to be A LOT better than mine :P
I take comfort that at least G will never get to read my lines in the current form :-[
-
i thought mines were bad aswell...dont worry
-
tell me about it..lol...if fun until u run out of ideas
-
ok Bas, we'll wait for your lyrics :)
-
yes we wait
-
very .................................................................... ::)
-
You guys are doing a good job without me. ;)
-

-
Ang, we need you here :)
-
Wow, Bas, for someone who swears not to know anything about song writing -- this is GOOD (u sure u're telling the truth? lol -- kidding! ;) I like the concept and the arrangement Bas, it's cool. :)
Ang, we need someone to synthesize everything, any idea who? ;)
