June 24, 200619 yr 4. Andrea Boccelli & Sarah Brightman: CON TE PARTIRO (time to say goodbye) Sarah Brightman is pretty good. Her latest album has a strong Middle Eastern vibe and it's amazing. I bought her concert DVD and the songs are even better life.

June 24, 200619 yr Sarah Brightman is pretty good. Her latest album has a strong Middle Eastern vibe and it's amazing. I bought her concert DVD and the songs are even better life. Hmmm.... sounds interesting, I told my G/F to play CON TE PARTIRO at my funeral if she's around and I'm not, but it's gotta be that version, with Sarah Brightman.

John Parr-St.Elmo's fire - big time upbeat and TWO HEARTS from the movie American Anthem Def Leppard Pyromania and Hysteria nearly the whole albums are finger tappin tunes Meatloaf usually can produce some good upbeat tunes. both Bat Out of Hell albums, I would do anything for love, out of the frying pan and into the fire, wasted youth, everything louder than everything else... Danger Danger - Rock America is definitely the exact sort of upbeat song I was thinking of. that whole Danger Danger album is awesome. Turn it On, Naught Naughty, Bang Bang Cheap Trick Mighty Wings is a forgotten CT tune, but its about as upbeat as it gets. From the top gun soundtrack, after you hear this song, you want to fly high in planes and shoot stuff down. One of Cheap Tricks best songs. Kenny Loggins Danger Zone is very upbeat also. Van Halen upbeat tunes- yes like mentioned above, also Dance the Night Away, Dreams, Why Can't This be Love, Can't Stop Loving You, Humans Being, This Dream is Over Sammy and Dave each have a great deal of solo upbeat songs.......which I would need to research properly to list them here Edited June 25, 200619 yr by regfootball

Major tool music, sorry NOS.
June 25, 200619 yr 3. Golden Earing: RADAR LOVE 4. Andrea Boccelli & Sarah Brightman: CON TE PARTIRO (time to say goodbye) Pantho, some good ones there: 3. Radar Love - nice and white trashy, great driving stuff (what about "Hot Rod Lincoln" then? I haven't a clue who did that) 4. Con Te Partiro - love it, fantastic, uplifting. I love all his $h!. Let's add a few black female vocalists who kick ass and help nudge the speedometer upward: Tina Turner - "Private Dancer" and "Break Every Rule" - title cuts are the better ones Pointer Sisters - "Neutron Dance" - heard it 2x while in Florida last month (Someone stole my brand new Chevrolet and the rent is due and I've got no place to stay...oooh ooooh) Patti LaBelle - "Lady Marmalade" (Voulez vous coucher avec moi ce soir?) Aretha Franklin - "Freeway of Love - Pink Cadillac" (Could you be a vision in white...how'd you get your pants so tight?) Crystal Waters - "Gypsy Woman - She's Homeless" (Dadadee dadada dadadee dadada dadadee dadada ...and on and on and on... and a whole boatload of synthesizer)
June 25, 200619 yr 4. Andrea Boccelli & Sarah Brightman: CON TE PARTIRO (time to say goodbye) Nothing including Sarah Brightman can ever be dissed. Simply an amazing voice.Anywhoo...one of my favorite upbeat songs of all time is Angel Pumping Gas by The Lindsey Pool. Also most Postal Service songs (The District Sleeps Alone Tonight=musical perfection) and Donkey Punch songs (Oops, My bad is hilarious) would make it onto my list. Just about anything classical (Beethoven, Mozart, etc) does wonders for the psyche.
June 25, 200619 yr classical music sends me into fits of rage. ditto for that one REM song that just goes on and on and on and never seems to end so you start hallucinating and swerving to hit small animals and realizing you are screaming at the top of your lungs for god to kill you now and then you finally change the radio station.
June 25, 200619 yr >>"what about "Hot Rod Lincoln" then? I haven't a clue who did that"<< Many... Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen being one of the better known versions.
June 25, 200619 yr ditto for that one REM song that just goes on and on and on and never seems to end so you start hallucinating and swerving to hit small animals and realizing you are screaming at the top of your lungs for god to kill you now and then you finally change the radio station. That one REM song? Dont you mean every REM song? I swear if I hear Man on the Moon or Losing my Religion ever again, someone is going to be severely maimed.
June 25, 200619 yr Soooo.....do you and your white friends listen to this stuff while wearing your Hollister and Abercrombie, sitting in your parent's lake house sipping Michelobs? Major tool music, sorry NOS. ha My parents don't have a lake house and I don't drink beer. :AH-HA_wink:
June 25, 200619 yr and I don't drink beer. :AH-HA_wink: Nice to see another person who has no problem proclaiming that...even having tried several brands, almost all of them taste nasty.
June 25, 200619 yr To those of you who don't like beer: Try Stella Artois. If you don't like that, you definately don't like beer. It is considered by most of the beer drinkers I know to be the best brand they've ever tried.
June 25, 200619 yr Nice to see another person who has no problem proclaiming that...even having tried several brands, almost all of them taste nasty. I know; I feel the same way. Everybody says, "Well, it's an acquired taste." So.. are they saying I'll have to drink it over and over, without liking it anyway, and maybe I'll like it after having it continuously?That's almost like saying I should eat brussel sprouts for three days straight, then maybe I'll like those, too.
June 25, 200619 yr Well lets see for me. "Love About Sundays" Craig Morgan "Sweet Home Alabama" Lynyrd Skynyrd "My Home's in Alabama" Alabama "Country Boy Can Survive" Hank Williams, Jr. "China Grove" Doobie Brothers "Magic Carpet Ride" Steppenwolf "Born To Be Wild" Steppenwolf "Enter Sandman" Metallica "Simple Man" Lynyrd Skynyrd "Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue (Angry American)" Toby Kieth "Have You Forgotten?"

June 26, 200619 yr Hot Rod Lincoln is a great tune... BTW Balthy: I downloaded "Dragster - Johnny Fortune" and it's a great tune... I've heard of this song before but never knew it was acoustic.

June 26, 200619 yr Hot Rod Lincoln is a great tune... 7. Creedence Clearwater Revival: Proud Mary Here's one I like way more from them: Down on the Corner That's a driving song.
June 26, 200619 yr 11. Cars: Drive Thats just one of the best songs ever. And how can any discussion on upbeat songs not include the Decembrists? Songs about whales are awesome.

Edited June 28, 200619 yr by chris
June 28, 200619 yr This immediately comes to mind: The Allman Brothers - Blue Sky What about "Jessica" - I think that was Allman Brothers?! That one pumps out some adrenaline.
