'Flying' related songs.

[Visitor Q]

Hi there,

A bit of a weird request, but a delightfully eccentric Chinese chap is teaching me to fly his powered-paraglider, and I want to repay the favour a little bit.

He has a love for all songs Chinese that are about flying, or the sky. And he was belting out some Bruce Springsteen and various 90's hits earlier, so enjoys western music.

Can you suggest me some flying songs?

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Zeffer song, is a perfect example. Especially as it's a good song to listen to, and has a very clear "Fly with me, on my zeffer" chorus that he should be able to understand.

So, cool flying songs, if you please.

What with Bendy's connection and Bruce being in to his flying a tad - Iron Maiden and "Ace's high".
"Final frontier" is about spacey pilot style stuff.
There's also "Flight of Icarus" possibly.
