Rage Against The Machine - Killing In the Name
Ain’t No Sunshine - Bill Withers
That man has pipes.
I keep thinking about my MiL when I hear this song - “I don’t like him”. She was in the same circles as Bill back in the day - apparently he was not a nice guy to women. I turn the volume up when it’s on because the song’s damn good, but still…
The Killers - Mr. Brightside for me. Such a good song
Hasn’t left the UK top 100 singles chart for 372 consecutive weeks! Longest charting single of all time.
I blame the streaming algorithms for that one. It’s certainly a banger of a song but things like You Tube music can’t help but it insert it into any vaugley guitar based auto playlist I might listen to.
The Prodigy - Voodoo People
Anything off of Parliament - Clones of Dr Funkenstein. Truly an underappreciated gem.
Most Pink Floyd songs, they start with very low volume 😁
So, so many, but off the top of my head…
- Fortunate Son by CCR
- One Word by Baby Animals
- The Boys of Summer by The Ataris
- Highway Tune by Greta van Fleet
- Rebel Yell by Billy Idol (also White Wedding)
- Onionskin by Boom Crash Opera
- Go Your Own Way by Fleetwood Mac
- The Steeple by Halestorm
- Bow River by Cold Chisel
- Beds Are Burning by Midnight Oil
- Hot Chilli Woman by Noiseworks
Plus almost anything by AC/DC, Foo Fighters, or with Chris Cornell.
Who couldnt’t turn up the volume when listening to https://piped.smnz.de/watch?v=nGguUngluD4?!
Me. It’s the :::XcQ:::
Stargazer by Rainbow
…also Tarot Woman (first track from the same album).
Superstition by Stevie Wonder.
You specifically only asked for one but I’ll be a rebel and give you Cover You in Oil by AC/DC as a bonus.
The Final Countdown is the ultimate volume changer for me.
The Negative One by Slipknot
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg

I usually need to be in the mood for grunge to seek them out specifically among a few other bands too. But, if this song randomly comes on, I definitely turn it up. There’s no one stand out song from anyone that I’d say is my number 1 favorite, I like a lot of music.

Porceilna of the Vast Oceans starts so quiet I always turn it up and then see if I can keep it up once it gets loud.
Yes! That was their opener when I saw them a few years back. I love love love longer songs that start off quiet/delicate and gradually ramp into the heaviness.
