I'm listening to "Deutschland, Deutschland uber alles", Lili Marlen, etc. My favorite is Hitler has only got one ball:

Hitler
Has only got one ball,
Goering
Has two, but very small
Himmler
Has something similar,
But poor old Goebbels
Has no balls
At all!

Strangely enough (or maybe not), according to an article i read YEARS ago about a Russian autopsy report on Hitler's charred body, he indeed only had one testicle...

That�s true, this is called monochordism� or cryptochordism, poor bastard, no wonder he married Eva Braun only two days before suicide.

Thanks God I have bichordism� or stereochordism??

I prefer classical music myself. for long turns like WitP, Mahler is good. Neilson's Sym#1 has a good martial section in the first movement, Percy Grainger's ballet "Warriors" is also good for getting in the warlike spirit but my favorite is Roy Harris's Symphony#6 "Gettysburg" - all four movements.

World War 2 was hell on the world's opera singers. In 1946 the opera singers were either dead, retired, too old, or too young.

I, too, like the music that comes with the game, but I've stopped listening to it because it runs through my head all day for weeks!

If I listen to music, it could be just about anything -- I'm too lazy to change what's in the player very often. Right now I have a disk of Debussy piano music, the Eastman Wind Ensemble's "Screamers" disk (mostly circus marches, but some others, including Guadalcanal), the Minneapolis Orchestra (obviously an old recording!) with the Gayne Ballet Suite and Shostakovich's 5th, and the Cincinnati Pops' 2-CD set of Gershwin's orchestral music.

I'm more likely to have a movie playing for background noise. "Tora! Tora! Tora!" is a good one to get in the right mood. Almost any submarine movie does the trick, too.
