Music you just GOT to crank...

[Zero]

It seems imperative that with all music lovers, you will find one song that will incite them to turn their system up until their hair stands up in the air, their ears bleed, and a smile is blown from ear to ear! We all have that one song that we just have to hear loud. Whats yours?

I will get the ball rolling. I can listen to most stuff at low volumes and enjoy it.... out of it all, Pink Floyd's "Money" is the exception.

[Shizelbs]

Zep's Dazed and Confused

[etrigan]

Black Sabbath "Symptom of the Universe"

CHEERS ! jefff

[jgido759]

Molly Hatchet's "Flirtin' With Disaster". Windows down & cranked.

[dcarlson]

I'll have to agree with Money and I'll add Pink Floyd Echoes at about half way through the song when the bass guitar kicks in all alone. That gets the hair standing.

Derick.

[Ron-P]

Ozzy
Rush
Cars
REO Speedwagon


Peace Out~:D

[RuSsMaN]

Reo Speedwagon?

'And I can't fight this feeling anymore....I've forgotten what I started fighting for......'

GAY!!!

I guess Reo is kinda like fat girls and mopeds. They are fun, as long as noone else finds out.

"With or Without You" by U2
"Coming Back to Life" by Pink Floyd
"Burning Heart" by Survivor

[avelanchefan]

Metallica....Black Album...whole damn thing

[Steve@3dai]

Ooooo... With or Without You is a great track, definately needs to be cranked on that one.

BT and Tori Amos did a track called Blue Skies, damn I crank that one. hehehe

Too many to list really!

[dylan]

Anything from Tool, but especially the Aenima album.

[shack]

"Thunderstruck" and "For Those About To Rock We Salute You" - AC/DC

[burdette]

Paradise City .. song doesn't even make sense unless your ears hurt.


Send in the Clowns .. the Shirley Bassey version, of course, or Judy Collins in a pinch (although don't play Collins' version over 110 dB). Forget the Striesand shit.


99 Luftballons .. hey, no explanation needed... pure bone-decalcifying rock and roll.


*ANYTHING* off 'John Tesh Live at the Paramus Roadway Inn'. Fuckin' awesome... 1000 watts a side wouldn't be overkill...

[jbowl]

Soundgarden - Rusty Cage, Soundgarden - Outshined

Oh hell , whole Badmoterfinger album...

[RuSsMaN]

Soundgarden, HELL YEAH.

[wangotango68]

testament-practice what you preach

scott:cool:

[wodom1]

The whole "Blood Sugar Sex Magik" album by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. "John the Fisherman" by Primus. "What Would You Say" by the Dave Matthews Band--hell, almost any song by the Dave Matthews band especially those off of 'Under the Table and Dreaming."

[Frank Z]

Eric Clapton "Grand Illusion" from the cd "August!!"

[pjdami]

Great thread Venom.

Here's a short list of my all time favorites to crank in no particular order; when I need a shot of adrenalin one of these will get me going:

Megadeth "Symphony of Destruction" {I don't know; I saw them live and Mustaine just kicks ass}

GNR "Sweet Child of Mine" {keg parties at LSU; oh man .. so many fly girls in tank tops walking around drunk....need I say more}

RATT "Dance"

U2 "The Unforgetable fire" track 4 {album is probably my favorite of all time; before they got too commercial}

U2 "New Year's Day"

Rush "Red Barchetta"

Zeppelin "In the Light" off Physical Graffiti {the song that motivated me to continue on with college and graduate; used to have it cranked on the walkman walking to my tests / finals to pump me up}

Zeppelin "Good Times Bad Times" and "Your time is going to come" {John Paul Jones on the keyboard on the intro and John Bonham is great on the drums here}

PJ

[Frank Z]

My wife says "American Pie",

But the greatest crank it up and sing-a-long like a heathen with your hair on fire song of all time is...





















Why don't we get drunk and screw!?!

[polkatese]

Al Jarreau's Spain

George Benson's This Masquerade (Breezin' Album)

Paul Lekakis' BOOM BOOM BOOM Let's Go Back To My Room...

[Tour2ma]

So many, but three that junp to mind that always require full throttle...

The Who - "Emminence Front"

The (Sensational) Alex Harvey Band - "Faithhealer"

Neil Young - "Nah Nah Hey Hey (Outta the Blue and Into the Black)"

[avelanchefan]

Tour nice call on Emminence Front. A great Who song.

Wangtango(Was there not a band called Wangtango?) Any ways good call on Awake. One of DT's best albums.

Is this the song that Vengaboys did on their first album? (Don't know if they had a second or not......)

The biggest one's that are comin to mind lately (don't laugh) but Yanni's 'Tribute' concert, tracks 1 and 5.......(I'll post the names later)

[Tour2ma]

Thanks Ave... Eminence (actually only one "m" I just realized) has an intro that builds nicely too... could make that list as well.

I believe Wangotango was a "song" by the Motor City Madman, Ted Nugent... don't know if a group took the name though.

Yanni???? Not laughing... more like a grimmace...

[brettw22]

First off, let me say that I think I liked you better when you were away.......... ;)

Track 1 I think is "Deliverance" and has some VERY soothing vocals throughout the song.......LSi owners would find this song VERY pure...

Track 5 is "Tribute" and that song starts off with some of the same vocal smoothness and throughout the song, the string section will both mellow/excite you............

[avelanchefan]

I also have been giving Coldplay a serious workout in my cd player. A very good band....a la U2

Ahhh I just figured it out. It was BANG TANGO a great late 80's band that really had ma unique sound. Not your typical hair band.

Hadn't even thought about this old album in years.... It's in my small comedy section with Alan Sherman, Spike Jones and other less musical comedians... Thanks for the laugh, petrym...

[joe6pak]

Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynyrd. At the first of the song, when they say "turn it up", I do. How can you not follow their instruction?

As far as other songs that I just have to crank up, the list is very, very, very long. It is one of my many bad habits.

"Smoke on the water" when the bass made the statement after the guitar (with distortion effect) played a few rounds, on DVD-audio, and the PSW 1200 pump your blood and kick your ass right out of the living room. "are you talking to me?" :-))

[dylan]

From Van Halen 1, 'Eruption' right in to 'You Really Got Me'. Blistering rock. They should have stopped after this album...

[avelanchefan]

Dylan,

VanHaken1 was a great album, but I always thought Fair Warning was their best work.

Kicks off with Mean Streets, and never lets up until One Foot out the Door finishes.
