I trained through college as a classical bassist, so when I get immersed in the drama of this sim (well, when I'm not using the install that has "Weenie" in it), I typically have a decent rotation of popular classics going in the background. I'm mindful that perhaps not all the crew is enamored of Telemann and Bruch, so I have some noisy recordings of people from school singing things like "Die Fourelle" and popular ditties in German.
Another personal favorite is the "Planets" suite from Gustav Holst. On a personal "brush with near-greatness", if I can arrange my schedule, I may get to perform "Mars, Bringer of War" from the suite with a decent community orchestra in October. Gives me goosebumps.
And, despite the obvious cliche, it's hard not to jump to Wagner's "Die Walkure" whilst making a surface run at flank towards the beam of a convoy.

It's almost as hard to suppress a bit of a giggle as I do that. I guess it's a bit of Bernard coming out on the bridge. Somehow a maniacal cackle seems like it would be appropriate, but a giggle....I dunno....
