Certain songs, for me, I stick them on my headphones when I'm walking along or at home/in the car and I just know I'm the swingiest, hippest cat in town.
You know *exactly* what I'm talking about, songs that make you crank the window of your car down and turn it up, just so people will hear it and think "My lord is that dude the cat's pajamas".
Grix's "Do something for me" thread has got me going through my old music and getting new stuff, and the old "attitude" songs have flooded back, make me wanna dress in ma struttin' clothes and bop down the streets like I own those mofo's. Because when you have your fav tunes on, life is good, the sun is shining regardless of the weather outside your head and you are 200ft tall.
The ones that do it for me?
"F--K You" Pharoah Monche
A recent addition to my pimp swagger music. Jimi Hendrix riff bolted to the meanest hip-hop breakbeats this side of Eric B & Rakim.
This song makes me want to wear a massive brimmed fur hat and a purple suit with collars, mink coat draped across my shoulders and just swing-walk along. Get this song by whatever means necessary.
"Black Dog" Led Zeppelin
One of the sexiest songs ever written by anyone. Driving, thumping drums, stop-start riff, Robert Plant singing his crotch off and the whole things just oozes testosterone. You simply cannot listen to this and not want to be a rock god.
"Oh Yeah" Foxy Brown
The rudest, nastiest rap song. This whole song reeks of sex, there is no other way to put it. Sorry, but it's true.
And the video...*Homer drool*..Mmmmmmmmm Foxy Brown...
"Funky Cold Medina" Tone Loc
Funky, groovy, funny with a slinky riff rolling through it.
Perfect summer-driving music.
The entire song is about being sassy and funky so that nobody can resist you with the funky cold medina. Damn straight Tone Loc, you know the score.
"Who Wants To Rock?" Clutch
1:03 of straight forward, one-riff rock heaven. You cannot get more simple but effective. Goes straight to your hips and makes you want to stand onstage, legs wide-apart as possible with low-slung guitar in hand and stare out into the crowd. And they DO this, almost every night. Ba***rds.
"Killing In The Name Of" Rage Against The Machine
Pure, undiluted defiance of governments, police forces, bosses, anyone that wants to stop you and get in your way.
Listen to this song and then realise why an entire crowd of almost 25,000 fans rioted in Mexico during this song with police going mental with sticks and guns shooting rubber bullets. This song mainlines straight to your primal resistance center of your brain.
"Chicken Strut" The Meters.
The inventors of funk. Absolutely pure and godlike funk. I can't say anything else except FUNK. From the "Ahhhhhhhhh-YA!" intro to the twisting bass and shuffle drumming.
This song would make Stephen Hawkins jump up and strut like a mack-daddy as soon as it is played.
"The Unknown" Mark B & Blade
The song we play as our intro before we go onstage.
UK hip-hop at it's finest.
A song about nobody knowing who the hell you are but knowing you'll make it anyway. About staying true to your heart and not giving up simply because those in suits haven't picked you yet.
Truth.

So what about you? What songs make you instantly feel cooler and able to walk the world?

Wake Up by Rage Against the Machine
and anything by Queens of the Stone Age. Someone, who I had never met, actually stopped me once to ask which band was playing in the car because they sounded cool... So Queens and Rage, but Wake Up is the get-me-up-out-of-bed song I use, partly because it's loud and partly because it's angry. Nothing like starting the day with a liberal dose of ant-corporate angst.
