Beatles - "Back In The USSR"

― noodle vague (noodle vague), Sunday, 8 August 2004 21:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Either the end of "In The Flesh?" or the beginning of "The Thin Ice," Pink Floyd. I don't know what track it's considered to belong to, although I suspect the former.

Busted, "Air Hostess"

― Kyle Everett, Sunday, 8 August 2004 23:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Einsturzende Neubauten used a jet engine in recent gigs. I suppose it should be counted.

The Box Tops, "The Letter"

Guided By Voices, Storm Vibrations.

― aa, Monday, 9 August 2004 00:50 (twenty-two years ago)

(Ha, this will be total fangirl day for me.)

Duran Duran, "Faster Than Light". Oddly enough, "My Own Way" doesn't have an airplane sound in the whole song, despite referencing an "airace".

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Monday, 9 August 2004 04:11 (twenty-two years ago)

(Oh, and the song also had a lyric that went, "fear of flying, no not me". Okay, I'm done.)

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Monday, 9 August 2004 04:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Is the sound at the start of Husker Du's 'Crystal' meant to be a plane?

― Sasha (sgh), Monday, 9 August 2004 04:31 (twenty-two years ago)

T.a.T.u. :: Not Gonna Get Us!!!

― minolta (minolta), Monday, 9 August 2004 05:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Digital Boy - "Gimme a Fat Beat"

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 9 August 2004 05:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Doesn't Duran's "The Chauffer" also have some kind of propellor plane sound in it? Or was that only on the live version?

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 9 August 2004 05:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Brian Eno - 1/1 from Music for Airports

Kidding of course.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Monday, 9 August 2004 05:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Trayce: I thought the whooshiness in "The Chauffeur" was supposed to be a vehicle passing by... ? I haven't listened to that song in a year. Hm. Must listen to again.

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Monday, 9 August 2004 05:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Haha it probably is. I mean a car would make more sense, being called "the Chauffer" and all.

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 9 August 2004 06:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Jesus and Marychain - Upside Down (har har!)

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 9 August 2004 06:27 (twenty-two years ago)

The Rutles - Hold My Hand

― Jez (Jez), Monday, 9 August 2004 11:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Typically Tropical - Barbados

(I think)

― Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Monday, 9 August 2004 11:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Belle and Sebastian - Seymour Stein (very end of it)

― Kevin H (Kevin H), Monday, 9 August 2004 12:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Tears for Fears, "Sowing the Seeds of Love" (that's a plane liftoff sound effect at the beginning, right?)

Billy Joel, "Goodnight Saigon" (does a helicopter count?)

― Joseph McCombs, Monday, 9 August 2004 16:44 (twenty-two years ago)

If a helicopter does count, then 'Charlie Don't Surf' by The Clash.

― Sasha (sgh), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 00:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Byrds, "2-4-2 Foxtrot (The Learjet Song)"
Residents,Third Reich and Roll (can't remember what track, even though there's only two in total)
