AND Joe Cocker’s cover. And his “You Can Leave Your Hat On.”
Kinky Friedman’s “They Ain’t Making Jews Like Jesus Anymore.” Particularly the Imus-in-the-Morning live version.
And “Jesus Christ Superstar” and “One Night in Bangkok.”
Too many to list but the ones that I’ve been cranking up lately are;
Caught in the Sun-Course of Nature
Again-Lenny Kravitz
Stillness of Heart-Lenny Kravitz
If you needed somebody-Bad Company
High enough-Damn Yankees
Many, many of these…but the first one that came to mind:
“Just What I Needed” by the Cars
“Jet Generation” - Guitar Wolf
“Everlong” - Foo Fighters
Anything by the Reverend Horton Heat, especially “Do It”
Track number 2 on Smash by The Offspring
Anything by the Red Elvises
“Creep” by Radiohead
“Aneurysm” and “Lithium” by Nirvana
“One” by Metallica (heck almost anything by them)
“The Game” and “Stupified”? by Disturbed
“Where Eagles Dare” by Iron Maiden
Too many…
“White Room” by Cream
“Layla” by Derek and the Dominos
“Soul to Squeeze” by the Red Hot Chili Peppers
“Wooly Bully” by Sam the Sham and the Pharohs (that one always gets me looks in traffic jams)
I will second Cartooniverse and Starship Trooper by Yes
Interstellar Overdrive - Pink Floyd, Piper at the Gates of Dawn
… anything else by Pink Floyd
Mario Piu - Communication (Somebody Answer The Phone)
Sets me off every time.
Weezer - “Dope Nose”
A Perfect Circle - “Judith”
Jane’s Addiction - “Three Days”
Social Distortion - “Ball and Chain”
TOOL - “Schism”
Just about any Bad Religion
“Sweet Home Alababa”-- hell, they *tell * you to turn it up!
“Starship Trooper” for a third time
“Country Home” by Mr. Young
“Ring of Fire” cover by Social D
“Black Eyed Susie” by Cheri Knight
Tool, Helmet, Jayhawks, Rush-- shit, everything sounds better louder!
there are a bunch more, many already mentioned so i’ll stop here.
“Pump It Up” - Elvis Costello
“Careful With That Ax, Eugene” - Pink Floyd
“Eye for an Eye” by Soulfly
“Hair of the Dog” by Nazareth (although the GNR version gets played full blast, too)
“Sober” by Tool
[hijack] I really need to find out if Perry Farrell from Jane’s Addiction pays the radio stations around here to play “Been Caught Stealin’” - I swear I hear that at least twice a day on the radio, no matter what station I turn it to. It always gets switched off…
