John’s Tuesday Tunes for this week is another mixture of a bunch of genres. His Ultimate Playlist on YouTube is getting larger, but more important more complete. Still got a long way for him though…
Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers Intro Theme
One of the great classic cartoons of the 80s along with Ducktales and kind of Darkwing Duck.
Genre: TV
Year: 1989
Chicago – You’re the Inspiration
This song is just really nice. John came across this song from the highly addicting Nintendo DS game, Elite Beat Agents.
Genre: Rock
Year: 1984
Usher – My Way
Tough to choose from them, but most likely John’s favorite Usher song. So many to choose from, although U Got it Bad might come in a close second.
Genre: Hip Hop
Year: 1998
Ben E King – Stand By Me
Quite the moving song. Works in so many situations, this collaboration video though was extremely touching.
Genre: Rock
Year: 1961
Train – Hey, Soul Sister
John remembered these guys from 2001 with Drops of Jupiter, glad to see they weren’t just a one hit wonder and came out with this great song. It’s tough to get images of car commercials out of your head while listening to this though, no?
Genre: Rock
Year: 2009
Aqua – Barbie Girl
Really don’t think it was possible to grow up in the 90s without not only listening to this song, but singing to it… nonstop.
Genre: Electronic
Year: 1997
Olivia Newton John w/ John Travolta – Grease OST / Summer Nights
Such an overall happy song to listen to. Great song… to an even greater movie.
Genre: Stage & Screen
Year: 1978
Offspring – Self Esteem
John’s favorite Offspring song. Awesome to watch X Games and when guys skate to this song.
Genre: Rock
Year: 1994
Shinhwa – All Your Dreams
One of John’s all-time favorite Korean songs. Lots of distortion make this for a great song to pump you up.
Genre: Korean
Year: 2000
Backstreet Boys – I Want It That Way
Best Backstreet Boys song, and easily the most recognizable one. Many don’t realize there was a version of the song that they didn’t come out with, it has some different lyrics, not as good as the original, but it mixes things up when you listen to I Want It That Way numerous times over….
Genre: Pop
Year: 1999
