 Orange Crush (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The song's lyrics refer to the Vietnam War, in which lead singer Michael Stipe's father served as a helicopter pilot.
Though Michael Stipe's lyrics are always oblique, it is thought that the title of this song refers to Agent Orange, the defoliant/herbicide used by US forces during the Vietnam War.
The song was placed on R.E.M.'s Warner Brothers "best of" album In Time- The Best of R.E.M. in 2003.

Songs like "The Lone Rhinoceros" and the emotional "Man In The Moon" (about the loss of his father) are rendered with a sharper aim; rocked-out pop tunes like "Men In Helicopter" emerge entirely reborn (Adrian sings sans intrument alongside a string quartet).
One song will be very avant garde, and the next will be a pop song.
My friends, when I would play a song for them just by myself sitting around, would say, 'it really sounds good that way, it's too bad it's not on the record that way,'" he explains.

 William H. Dabney
A radio conference with a physician down at Khe Sanh established that his wound was not life-threatening and therefore did not justify an emergency medical evacuation with the consequent risk to the helicopter.
In several instances where the needs were critical and immediate we transmitted in Spanish, and sometimes even in song.
The lack of a secure means of communications between the hill and Khe Sanh meant that we and the base had to be guarded in what we said, since we had to assume that the enemy was listening.

 Flower Drum Song Reviews
In '58, "Flower Drum Song" told the tale of mail-order bride Mei-Li, who with her father arrived in Chinatown at the behest of her intended, hepcat Sammy Fong.
But this is not your father's "Flower Drum Song," and instead we begin in China, where Mei-Li (Lea Salonga) watches her father tear down a banner of Mao and get dragged away by the Communists.
A few tons shy of a mega-musical--no fake helicopter here, no power ballads saccharine enough to stop communism dead in its tracks--it's a raffishly entertaining response to the 1958 original.

 Margaret Thatcher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
She was known as "Maggie" in the tabloids, which inspired the well-known "Maggie Out!" protest song, sung throughout that period by some of her opponents.
Her liking for defence ties with the United States was demonstrated in the Westland affair when she acted with colleagues to prevent the helicopter manufacturer Westland, a vital defence contractor, from linking with the Italian firm Agusta in favour of a link with Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation of the United States.
Her unpopularity on the left is evident from the lyrics of several contemporary popular songs: "Stand Down Margaret" (The Beat), "Tramp the Dirt Down" (Elvis Costello), and "Mother Knows Best" (Richard Thompson).

 Fluff from November 9th, 2000
Faye, as part of a promo tie-up with Head andShoulders Shampoo, was scheduled to emerge from a helicopter in a golf buggy and perform three songs from Fable on an aircraft carrier.
She has ignored some of the more probing questions, preferring to spend precious reel on giving us a very detailed run-down on the mystical meanings of the first five songs, which she says are "all about love and its complexities, from the beginning of creation to modern times''.
Pan, who incidentally plays Mrs Suen, the Shanghai landlady in the film, recorded the song when she was 18 -- once again emphasising the transience of time and the passing of opportunities missed.

 James Bond Film Soundtracks
The title song (appearing in a scene where Bond is called in to the office while "entertaining" a female friend and later in the ending credits) was composed by Lionel Bart ("Oliver!") and performed by Matt Munro, with a unique orchestral style replete with Russian shaker bells.
The film also features Shirley Bassey for her third Bond outing with an inspired title song (which is reprised in disco style for the closing credits).
Comments: In celebration of Sean Connery's return to Bond after George Lazenby's stint, Shirley Bassey came back with the title song "Diamonds are Forever," an interesting blend of traditional Barry orchestral elements and '70s funk (the use of guitar "wah-wahs" and funky percussion grooves).

 Loudon Wainwright III: Here Come the Choppers! - PopMatters Music Review
M*A*S*H always began with the sound of a helicopter bringing in the wounded for treatment and then merge with the soothing instrumental theme song "Suicide Is Painless".
Wainwright delves into his family mythos on several songs, including the sweet memory of his grandmother "Nanny", the sarcastic dig at domestic drama "Make Your Mother Mad", and the powerful "Half Fist", a song that concerns the first Loudon Wainwright, who died young long before the birth of his grandson.
This is the one song in which Wainwright refrains from any comedic references.

 E-TABS [guitar tabs archive] - Album: Godsmack - Faceless
Opening this album are various sounds from a battle - machine guns spewing out volleys of bullets, soldier voices, and a helicopter flying (very much like Metallica's classic song "One") - and then the real song starts up, with the drums echoing the chopper blades.
Especially welcome tracks are the intro "The Awakening" and the song "Serenity" which are classic Godsmack concluding tracks ("Voodoo" on the 1st album and "The Journey"/"Spiral" on the 2nd) that leave us on a good, soft note.

A famous line from Ice Cube's hit "A Good Day" reads, "no helicopter looking for the murder, 2 in the morning got the fat burger." As a result of being a fan of this song, I felt the need to acquire a Fat Burger at 2am myself.
On Fridays however it is open until 2am, so even though I didn't get the fat burger I learned something about Ice Cube's song that is not in the lyrics.
Afterwards we ate at in-and-out burger and then headed to the airport to catch our flight back.

As long as you're not expecting bitter social commentary from something called "Cyclops Helicopter," you should hopefully be able to get into the happy diversical Weirdos strain of living, loving and not managing to keep a band together for more than 4 or 5 months at a time.
Also, a few of them were recorded live and/or in demo stages, so sound quality varies drastically from song to song.
