mushrat Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 We were discussing that we can't think of any popular American drinking songs that aren't Country/western. Anyone think of any that aren't transplanted english/irish/scottish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaia.plateau Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 NOFX - Seeing Double at the Triple Rock, Bottles to the Ground, Beer BongThat's all I can think of off the top of my head for the moment. Dropkick Murphys are pretty unbeatable for modern drinking music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iron molly black Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 (edited) Mardi Gras songs? A lot of them have to do with drinking... Have to work at it a bit to remember them though, because I was just a *bit* drunk the week I was at Mardi Gras, but I remember singing a lot... Edited to add, here's one I remember:I Got Loaded:Last night I got LoadedOn a bottle of gin, on a bottle of ginLast night I got loadedOn a Bottle of gin, on a bottle of ginBut I feel alright, I feel alrightI feel alright, I feel alrightNight before last I got loadedOn a bottle of whiskey, on a bottle of whiskeyNight before last I got loadedOn a bottle of whiskey, on a bottle of whiskeyBut I feel alright, I feel alrightI feel alright, I feel alrightTonight I might get loadedOn a bottle of wine, on a bottle of wineTonight I might get loadedOn a bottle of wine, on a bottle of wineBut I feel alright, I feel alrightI feel alright, I feel alrightAlso, I remember this song going on for a looong time, with plenty of added verses, as you can imagine...

mushrat Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 All interesting songs...but none widely known. I just don't think that there are any commonly known american drinking songs. Of course,the more i think about it, americans don't tend to drink and sing in bars like they do in say the UK. Wonder why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jordanneff Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 How about that old song "Tequila". That's American.

Heres a vid if for some reason you dont know what Im talking about... anyone who saw the movie The Sandlot should remember a hilarious scene with this songhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_C1xfxHQzY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
