The theme to Greatest American Hero:

Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself.
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
It should've been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

It's like a light of a new day,
It came from out of the blue.
Breaking me out of the spell I was in,
Making all of my wishes come true-.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

"I'm a little teapot short and stout. Here is my handle here is my spout..."

That really helps me huck extra tall curbs.

I always say in my head right after the start official says "ok rider you have 5 seconds" the intro line to an Metro Stylee (little known NYC ska band circa 97-99) song called "Evil Eyes" that simply says "Here comes the pain..."

I think i've said that to myself before EVERY DH race since 98.

I'm usually more worried about other things going through my head, like that rock near the landing, or the tree behind the turn after the landing....
I do hear the "Bullet and a Target" song from the Preston FR video when riding....

I don't "go big" that often, but my last coupla races, I had Motorhead's "Love Me Like Reptile" and some random Hellacopters song off an ep flowing through the peanut they call my noggin.

When I am dropping the deuce, a song generally is not on my mind.

Song? I'm usually thinking "Holy crap, I hope I land this and don't kill myself."
if someone could turn that into a song, it would debut at number one.
