nathand95 Posted September 27, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hey everyone! I just had a great idea for a fun thread. What songs do like to listen to while on a cruise? What songs really put you in a cruising spirit before you cruise? What are some downright awesome vacation songs? I don't think this type of thread has been done recently; all the threads similar to this were over 2 years old, so I thought I'd create a current CRUISING PLAYLIST.

BlueJacketsFan1 Posted September 27, 2011 #8 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Ever since our first cruise we always do a pre-cruise stay in SoBe. While we are there we always go to Mango's Tropical Cafe on Ocean Drive. They have a Reggae band there call Innasense which we love to listen too. We have their CD and we listen to it at home to remember our past cruises. It also helps us look forward to our upcoming cruises when we get home and wait the six months till we can book our next cruise 18 months before we sail.

mkissa Posted September 27, 2011 #11 Share Posted September 27, 2011 We listen to Mushroom Jazz. We have it our our iPod speakers playing our room at all times (When we are in it, of course). I think that we have almost all of the albums on our iPod. It has become our vacation soundtrack. If you are interested. Mushroom Jazz is a series of musical compilations by DJ Mark Farina.

UNCBlue4Us Posted September 27, 2011 #16 Share Posted September 27, 2011 We sail on "Victory" this coming Sunday. Anytime we are in the Caribbean, it's Bob Marley non-stop. Our all time favorite is "Redemption Song", but there so many more Marley great hits. My wife and I are about the last people that someone would think are reggae fans.

dudaze11 Posted September 28, 2011 #17 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I listen to a lot of Bob Marley and something a little more random that I listen to would be these songs by 311: Amber, Champagne, Waiting, and Be Here a While et al. These guys own an island in the Caribbean and if you listen to them I think you will agree that it gets into their music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sugaangel601 Posted September 28, 2011 #19 Share Posted September 28, 2011 A similar thread was done recently, but I just deleted the subscription! *DOH!* Bob Marley is my go-to... particularly the "Legends" album (best hits). My bf bought this for me last Christmas before our January cruise to OR and GC. Otis Redding, Jimmy Buffett, Zac Brown Band, Kenny Chesney, anything Reggae or Reggaeton, some UB40, Beach Boys, "Come Sail Away" by Styx... I could go on and on! There are a ton of other great mentions so far, too!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AryMay Posted September 28, 2011 #25 Share Posted September 28, 2011 This is what I've compiled, thanks in part from other CC lists. GrooveShark Thanks...I've saved your playlist! Grooveshark is a great way to preview songs before buying them. I always make a cruise DVD slideshow after each cruise and I'm already on the lookout for songs for the next one.
