Patzachry. The question is whether the man has been getting resituals from the public performances to help pay for his defense or his flights to new hunting grounds.

Joe Smith definetly has a song used each time he comes out. I just can't figure out what it is. If you can help...please do!

The only bigger mystery is the default "you-don't-have-a-song-so-we-use-this" song they use. It's been used for Gomez and Gotay both. I'd love to know what it is. It sounds suspiciously like 80s hair metal/arena rock. I don't know what it'll be but there's definetly a prize if you can help me figure out what it is.

Damion Easley was rocking "Too Legit to Quit" by Hammer before one of his at-bats Friday night. Time will tell if this is a permanent thing or not.

[Batty31]

Although he doesn't use it as entry music, Volare is played quite frequently during LoDuca's at bats.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Reyes is one of 3 players to use the song "Chacarron." The song is hilarious, huge hat tip to GYC for showing it to me.

[Gwreck]

Thanks OO for the help!

Chacarron is Reyes' 4th song, with This Is Why I'm Hot the s2nd song, and Walk It Out the 3rd. I think the first one is one of the reggateton beats created by Reyes himself (?).

Perez is either changing up his music or perhaps letting the stadium change it up for him. Not sure, but it wasn't the Jacksons used on Tuesday.

Carlos Gomez has music now too...still trying to ID that.

I think all the relievers except Sele have music now too. Not 100% sure about Feliciano.

The goal of getting everybody this year is getting a little closer.

[Gwreck]

Newhan has switched to Mo' Money, Mo' Problems by Notorious B.I.G.

Any help on IDing Gomez' and Johnson's music would be much appreciated.

[bmfc1]

I thought I heard Diana Ross's "I'm Coming Out" when Newhan came up last night. I also thought that it would be an unusual theme song for a ball player as it's a gay anthem--not that there's anything wrong with that!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Everything is a gay anthem.

The real question is whether "Lights" was a personal Felicano song.

[Elster88]

LOL, you're dating yourself. As GWreck noted, the song is Mo Money, Mo Problems by Biggie Smalls. It uses the beat from I'm Coming Out.

Lots of rap/hip-hop these days uses beats from old songs. They call it sampling. Even though some of the songs come out good, I call it a lack of skill. Steal a beat and mumble some gibberish loosely in time with it and you've got a hit. (And I like Mo Money, Mo Problems, as well as some others)

What was that line way back in season 2 (1?) that Christopher said when Hesh and the rapper got in a spat?

[bmfc1]

Elster88--HA! Thanks for the update. I'm not familiar with "Mo Money, Mo Problems" (although I am familiar with Willy Mo Pena and, sadly, Mo Vaughn). I know what "beats" are and what sampling is but to me, these "artists" should come up with their own music.

[TransMonk]

Ricky Ledee - Walking on the Moon, The Police

[Gwreck]

Excellent!

[Elster88]

Did he pick that one? Not to stereotype too much but that's a very white song.

[Gwreck]

Updates, Updates....

Thanks TransMonk for Ledee's song.

Reyes is using new songs for at-bats #1 and 2. The songs for at-bats #3-5 (below) remain the same.

Most wanted list:
El Duque
Carlos Gomez
Ruben Gotay

I'm still not quite sure what is used for Wright's at-bat #3.

I'm fairly confidant that neither Sele nor Feliciano have their own songs.

The goal of getting everybody this year...still reachable, I think.

[Gwreck]

LoDuca was using Smoke on the Water (Deep Purple) tonight.

Carlos Beltran shook up his music ever-so-brielfy during the last homestand, but appears to have gone back to using his regular song for every at-bat (for the last home series before the ASB, it had only been used the first time up).

Anyone know what Gotay and Milledge are using?

[Gwreck]

Long Since due for an update...new additions in bold.

Most wanted:
The new Jose Reyes reggaeton song -- starts with the Jose, Jose Jose chant and, as far as I can tell, is about Jose.
Luis Castillo's reggaeton.
El Duque's warm-up music when pitching.

Since the 2008 regular season has not yet begun, I have placed this Mets music related note, from today's [u:7be9e3fd1f]Newsday[/u:7be9e3fd1f], in the thread from 2007:

Perhaps Smith someday can be like Heilman, who was approached by a Mets PR official who asked him which song he'd like played when he enters games at Shea this season. Heilman, who changed from The Clash's "London Calling" to "Seven Nation Army" by the White Stripes last season, didn't have an answer. "I'll have to think about that," he said. But he won't have to think about his role.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Heilman rocks.

[Gwreck]

Heilman has abandoned "Seven Nation Army" for "Paint it Black," btw.
