The worst aviation song?
 

OK; so we got the worst aviation everything, but I've been thinking about the worst songs that even became popular. Their lyrics seem to be written by someone who has absolutely no knowledge of aerodynamics or general flying. So here are a few favorites (songs and lyrics)

Flying Without Wings - ?
You are the wind beneath my wings - Bette Midler (I think)
On the wings of love - ?

Love to hear of more songs...

_
To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems! - Homer Simpson

Keith Richards & Orville:

O:I wish I could fly, up up in the sky, but I can't
KR:Ye can
O: I can't
KR:YE CAN!


I reckon I could drop kick the little green freak a good 60 yards. There you are Orville, you ARE flying http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/tongue.gif
