    Default Unknown Song

    Hello,

    I'm looking for an old song that has the words "airborne" and "flying away" in the lyrics.

    Does anyone know the artist and title of this song?

    Thanks.

    Have 3 possibilities

    "Airborne" by Killer

    Something broke the silence
    Something interfered
    Something made me promise
    Something I can't keep
    Something got me started
    Something told me off
    Something got me running
    Something made me stop

    But to leave me out of love, to cut me from the core is killing me
    And I can't breath, but if only

    I was airborne I'd fly away, I'd fall from grace
    I'd fall headlong and come around in a better place
    Where you, you would love me too
    Just like I love you

    Something's off my shoulders
    Something drags me down
    Something I left open
    Is letting something out

    So many times that I called you up
    And I tried to let you know that I'm so in love
    And I know how you hate when I talk too much
    Yet I told you stuff, but is was not enough


    "Barbados" by Typically Tropical


    [Cockpitvoice:]
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is captain Tobias,
    We'll welcome you upon coconut airways flight 372,
    To Bridgetown, Barbados,
    We will be flying at a height of thirty thousand meters,
    At an airspeed of approximately sixhundred miles per hour,
    Refreshments will be served after takeoff,
    Kindly fasting your seatbelts,
    Refrain from smoking until the craft is airborne.

    Whooo, I'm going to Barbados,
    Whooo, back to the boundaries,
    Whooo, I'm going to see my girlfriend,
    Whooo, in the sunny carribean sea,

    I don't wanna be bus driver all my life,
    I've seen to much of brickstone town, in the night,
    Fly away, on coconut airways,
    Fly me high, Barbados sky,

    I look up at the sky and I see the clouds,
    I look down at the ground, and I see the rain go down the drain,
    Fly away on coconut airways,
    Fly me high, Barbados sky,

    Whooo, I'm going to Barbados,
    Whooo, back to the boundaries,
    Whooo, I'm going to see my girlfriend,
    Whooo, in the sunny Caribbean sea,

    Far away from London town, and the rain,
    It's really very nice to be, home again,
    Mary Jane with the coconut airway,
    Now I know, she loves me so,

    Whooo, I'm going to Barbados,
    Whooo, whoo back to the boundaries,
    Whooo, I'm going to see my girlfriend,
    Whooo, in the sunny Caribbean sea,

    [Cockpitvoice:]
    Ladies and gentlemen, we're now coming to our approach to Bridgetown, Barbedos,
    The weather is fine with approximately a temperature of 99 degrees Fahrenheit,
    The sky is blue and the country are really cool,
    Captain Wilkos and his crew hope you had a pleasant flight,
    I liked you fly coconut airways again,

    Whooo, I'm going to Barbados,
    Whooo, back to the boundaries,
    Whooo, I'm going to see my girlfriend,
    Whooo, in the sunny Caribbean sea,

    Whooo, I'm going to Barbados,
    [Bridgetown, please fasten your seatbelts]
    Whooo, back to the boundaries,
    [...]
    Whooo, I'm going to see my girlfriend,
    [...]
    Whooo, in the sunny Caribbean sea,
    [...]
    Whooo, I'm going to Barbados,
    [...]
    Whooo, back to the boundaries,
    [...]
    Whooo, I'm going to see my girlfriend,
    [...]
    Whooo, in the sunny Caribbean sea.


    "Aces High" by Iron Maiden

    There goes the siren that warns off the air raid
    Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak
    Out for the scramble we've got to get airborn
    Got to get up for the coming attack.

    Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
    Remove all the wheel blocks
    theres no time to waste
    Gathering speep as we head down the runway
    Gotta get airborne before it's too late.

    Running, scrambling, flying
    Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
    Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
    Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high.

    Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
    Let of a sharp burst and then turn away
    Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
    Move to their blindsides and firing again.

    Bandits at 8 O'clock move in behind us
    Ten ME-109's out of the sun
    Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them
    Heading straight for them I press down my guns.

    Rolling, turning, diving
    Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
    Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
    Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high.

    Well heck. I guess we'll just keep looking. Do you recall the music type like rock, folk, etc? Male, female, band, duo, etc?

    It's a band and I think that it's a song from the 80's

    It's not "airborne", it's "Airport" and it's by The Motors.
