The top 10 “best” geocaching songs
Epic geocaching adventures deserve an epic soundtrack, or at least some fun music when you’re on your way to log a cache (or a DNF). Here’s our Top 10 list of the “best” geocaching songs (notice the quotation marks). Which songs get you movin’ from cache to cache?
10. “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes” by Jimmy Buffett
It’s these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
With all of our running and all of our cunning
If we couldn’t laugh (cache!) we would all go insane
9. “Patience” by Guns N’ Roses
Need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more patience, yeah
Could use some patience yeah
Gotta have some
Patience yeah
All it takes is patience
Just a little patience
Is all you need
8. “One Way or Another” by Blondie
One way or another, I’m gonna find ya’
I’m gonna get ya’, get ya’, get ya’, get ya’
One way or another, I’m gonna win ya’
I’m gonna get ya’, get ya’ ,get ya’, get ya’
7. “Stand” by R.E.M.
If you are confused, check with the sun
Carry a compass to help you along
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around
Stand in the place where you live
Now face north
Think about direction
Wonder why you haven’t before
Now stand in the place where you work
Now face west
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven’t before
6. “The Wanderer” by Dion
Oh yeah, I’m the type of guy that likes to roam around
I’m never in one place, I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin’ for some girl (cache?)
Yeah, I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world
Yeah I’m the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around
5. “Whoomp! (There It Is)” by Tag Team
I’m takin’ it back to the old school
‘Cause I’m an old fool who’s so cool
If you want to get down, I’ma show you the way
Whoomp, there it is! Lemme hear ya say
4. Roam” by The B-52’s
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
3. “The Distance” by Cake
He’s going the distance
He’s going for speed
She’s all alone (all alone)
All alone in her time of need
Because he’s racing and pacing and plotting the course
He’s fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He’s going the distance
No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine
He’s haunted by something he cannot define
2. “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” by U2
I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
…But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for
And the number one song for geocachers has got to be…
1. “The Raider’s March” from Raiders of the Lost Ark composed by John Williams and performed by the Boston Pops Orchestra
Dut duh dut DAH…
Dut duh DUH…
Dut duh dut DAH…
Dut duh DAH DAH DAH!
