Making a video for school that has a fight scene in it, looking for some music that helps set the mood. Would be good if there's not too much cursing, though I could edit some out. Preferably no rap, as I don't really like it, nor do I think it would work well.

Ballroom Blitz
Mamma Said Knock You Out
Adagio For Strings - give it kind of a surreal quality (worked for Platoon)
Hurt - Johnny Cash
The Man Comes Around - Jonny Cash (would be great for a one (or four) man against many scene)

It really depends on what kind of fight it will be. Is it a spontaneous violent bar brawl? If that's the case, something like Ace of Spades would be appropriate.

If the fight is a drawn-out, dramatic confrontation between two lifelong enemies, then you'd want something epic and/or orchestral. The final fight music from Bloodsport would be a good choice.

If pure suspense is what you're going for, then The Trio from "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" or Sixty Seconds to What? from "For a Few Dollars More" would both be excellent lead-ins for a fight scene. You can find Real Audio samples of both of these tunes on http://www.clinteastwood.net

Just watch any WWE/WWF video after a PPV. They put on some great vids recaping their events and have them compiled perfectly.

I personally got sick of "Headstrong" by Trapt when I was at Bad Blood last June.

a few others

"My Way" Limp Bizkit
"What If" Creed
"Out of Control" Hoobstank
"Last Resort" Papa Roach

I don't know if that is a good fight song, but play anything by Creed and I guarantee you that people will want to fight you!:D :p

Primer 55? Deadlights? Why not throw in some Static-X or Full Devil Jacket? You're a nu-metal god! ;)

Bulls on Parade, I believe is it.

Or, Come With Me, by Sean Combs, Puffy, Puff Daddy, P. Diddy, etc. etc. etc.

Either one will do.

I would make an MP3 of the scene from Cable Guy where Jim Carrey is trying to sing the fight music from the Star Trek when Kirk fights Spock.

I had a class in high school where we made videos for the school TV program/snorefest and one thing I learned is go with the unexpected. Of course after crap like the matrix people will expect something metal or techno.

Instead throw em the curve and do something kitchy campy like Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go. Throw in a flashing subtitle for good measure: Sorry, this is all we had in studio.

Or start the fight scene and then switch to technical difficulties screen with elevator music and be like: Due to recent media vulgarity and obscenity, we can't show any of this.
