Rita doesn't have ride Music - It's Thunder Rock Ralley Radio or something - they just play loads of music to do with Rita -

Like
Jonny Cash - Ring of Fire
Celine Dion - I drove all night!

Does anyone have the "Go Go Go!" announcement, as I really want it, and can't seem to find it anywhere.

I\'m here to kick backside and chew fruit pastilles, and guess what, I\'m out of fruit pastilles...

'Dont Stop Me Now' always reminds me of Rita, and 'We Built This City On Rock n Roll' as they were playing non stop on the best time I ever went to Alton. It was a rainy day so there way nobody there, it was brilliant! And 'Teenage Dirtbag' does aswell. :P

I've dug out the extract that was on the old Towers Nerd website for you. Click Me. Not great quality but gives you an idea of what it is like.

Yes it is 'Satarship - We Built This City' not 'Jefferson Starship' as is on towersart's list - they're a different band all together!
