Fire-Up Songs

[The Hitman]

Which are the best songs to fire you up?

Mine are...

Holy Grail - Hunters And Collectors
We Can't Be Beaten - Rose Tattoo
Alive - Pearl Jam
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
Eye Of The Tiger - Survivor
Heroes - The Wallflowers

I'm sure more will come to my mind later...

The Hitman

 

[Rusty Brookes]

Well obviously-Yankee Doodle Dandy with the Hawthorn lyrics

Aside from that:

Livewire-AC/DC -(Bon Scott in fine sneer with Angus letting rip with one the greatest solos ever)

Search and Destroy-Iggy and the Stooges (my all time favourite band: I was stunned when it was used in the Nike commercials a year or so ago)

Billion Dollar Babies-Alice Cooper (Creepy and wierd -brilliant)

One Way Street-the Saints (Awesome rock n roll from 1976-a great year)

Before I go to the footy I will listen to at least one of these songs.

Must give a nod to Hitman for Eye of the Tiger- I always want to go through the Hulk Hogan routine when I hear it.

 

[The Hitman]

Another one is Better Sweet Symphony - The Verve.

Gets my spine chilling every time I hear it...

The Hitman

 

[play on]

Bound for glory by Angry Anderson. They play part of this song on the video, The road to victory. A great video on the 1990 Collingwood season. I recommend this video to everyone.

Eye of the tiger from Survivor


I think the song is called, If you want blood, you've got it. It is from AC/DC. I am not 100% on name of the song, but I think that is the song name.


Highway to hell AC/DC

[Mr Ripper]

Classical Gas (Mason Williams).

The sad part is, I'm not even yanking yer shanks with that selection!

 

[The Hippie]

I've always found Motley Crue's Kickstart My Heart a good song to fire up to.

 

[Danny Chook Fan Club]

Alright! It's gotta be loud, it's gotta have guitar bits where I can headbang, it's generally gotta be pretty damn stupid.

DCFC's "Fire-Up" classics!

More Than A Feeling - Boston
Run To Paradise - Choirboys
Rock 'n' Roll Star - Oasis
Just Like Paradise - David Lee Roth

Like Wow, Wipe Out - Hoodoo Gurus
Wake Me Up Before You Go Go - Wham!
Funky Town - Pseudo Echo
Footloose - Kenny Loggins
Authority Song - John Mellencamp
Some Day I'll Be Saturday Night - Bon Jovi

Oh, I'm such a tragic 80's/90's Triple M victim! And loving it!

Yeah Angel Of Death is great too, as are War Ensemble and Dead Skin Mask.

And what about Accept's Balls To The Wall? The video to that is a pisser. Udo looks and sounds like he's trying to squeeze out a crap. Man, is he ugly! I defy anyone not to get inspired by Udo's nasty threat to "plug a bomb in everyone's ass". HAHAHAHAHAHA.

 

[coxon]

iggy pop - Lust for life
fatboy slim - Right here, right now


hhmmmm.. more to come...

Have you heard the very good Red Hot Chili Peppers version, which appeared on the first Beavis and Butt-Head compilation around 1994? That's the same album that spawned Megadeth's brilliant "99 Ways To Die".

 

[coxon]

ah..speaking of nike commercials..

John Lennon - "instant karma' is a great fire up song

 

[Visro]

ACDC - Thunderstruck
Disturbed - Stupify
A couple of Rob Zombie songs

Plenty of others
