Top 10 Drinking Songs

askmen.com — Is there a better match than music and alcohol? “When you’re down in the dumps and you need somethin’ to bring you up, there’s only one thing that’s gonna do it the way you want it,” preached Paul Stanley. But there are actually two things you’ll need to bring you up: A great song and a stiff drink.

    Singing, Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses.

    Shoot the ***** - Bad Ronald
  • Linkin4, on 02/24/2008, -0/+16Kiss me, I'm ***** - Dropkick Murphys
  • fuwath, on 02/24/2008, -4/+2The song Roxanne is a bad-ass drinking game too. Shots or swig of beer every time you hear the word Roxanne.
  • HiKevinRose, on 02/24/2008, -3/+1Interesting but weak. They should have linked up at least the part of the song they reference, if not the whole thing.
  • rapeandruin, on 02/24/2008, -0/+24no Flogging Molly or The Mahones or The Pogues...or hell any IRISH PUNK? A lot of irish punk has drink songs a lot of them are good! "Get up and out of bed your drunken lazy bastard, you drink all night and you sleep all day!"

    ***** list.
    • quamsta, on 02/24/2008, -0/+6Agreed. No Drunken Lullabies by Flogging Molly? Ask Men is a pile of *****.
    • Enfenestrate, on 02/24/2008, -7/+1Irish punk can go suck a dick. That being said, the lack of Whiskey in the Jar or Whiskey You're the Devil is upsetting.
    • jenel, on 02/24/2008, -0/+1"I am going, I am going any which way the wind may be blowing
      I am going, I am going where streams of whiskey are flowing"
    • steveatdownmix, on 02/25/2008, -0/+1In heaven, there is no beer. That’s why we drink it here.
  • perrym, on 02/24/2008, -0/+17FAIL

    Flogging Molly - Irish Drinking Song
  • TiMMY8765, on 02/24/2008, -1/+8brass monkey? beats out margaritaville?
  • Adelski, on 02/24/2008, -0/+23***** these lists. I don't want to have to click through three or four different pages for 10 pieces of information.
  • AsSubtleAsABrik, on 02/24/2008, -2/+5Against Me! - Pints of Guinness Make you Strong

    Even though if you actually read the lyrics its kind of depressing, but when the chorus starts with "And just like James I'll be drinking Irish tonight," you can't help but feel encouraged to drink.
  • seastobble, on 02/24/2008, -1/+4Beer by psychostick?
  • blzbulb, on 02/24/2008, -3/+1What no N.W.A. 8 Ball?!? That was the jam...in 1987...yo.
  • TonyKay, on 02/24/2008, -0/+8Worst list ever. Sure there are some good songs on there (SULBIME FTW), but I would never consider drinking songs.
  • balilanai, on 02/24/2008, -6/+1Alcohol damages the liver. Buried!
  • Mjv21, on 02/24/2008, -0/+5***** that list indeed. I was almost sure flogging molly's Irish Drinking song would be on there, and I was 100% sure that Spirit of the west would make it.

    We arrived in December and London was cold
    We stayed in the bars along Charing Cross Road
    We never saw nothin' but brass taps and oak
    Kept a shine on the bar with the sleeves of our coats
    You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my best
    I've been gone for a week
    I've been drunk since I left
    And these so-called vacations
    Will soon be my death
    I'm so sick from the drink
    I need home for a rest
    Take me home....

  • faz9, on 02/24/2008, -0/+4The beastie boys brass monkey song is believed to be an ode to the malt liqueur and orange juice version. Not the vodka, rum and orange one.
  • DarkVandal1019, on 02/24/2008, -1/+1No Irish Drinking Music, No Classic im too wasted to remember the lyrics music, list is music fail
    http://www.cnet.co.uk/i/c/blg/cat/digitalmusic/nok ...
  • oblivionatm, on 02/24/2008, -0/+3Dropkick Murphy's and Flogging Molly have drinking songs that beat out all of these!
  • Scruffydan, on 02/24/2008, -0/+3pretty much anything by great big Sea should fit the bill. My favorites are The old black rum and the night that patty Murphy died.
    • Zippo, on 02/24/2008, -0/+2Oh good, I'm not the only one who immediately thought of Patty Murphy.
      Great Big Sea rocks.
  • robotdrone, on 02/24/2008, -1/+5Chumbawamba's Tubthumping is an obnoxious song but it should be on the list simply for "Pissing the night awaaaaaaaaay"
  • Joey34, on 02/24/2008, -2/+2Surely marijuana and music is better match than alcohol and music.
    • nubbz51, on 02/24/2008, -0/+1I have to agree, but its only an opinion
    • deliciousapes, on 02/24/2008, -1/+1Agreed! hahaha at the pussies burying you.
  • santiago1, on 02/24/2008, -0/+2"The Boys are Back" - Thin Lizzy
    "Comfortably Numb" - Pink Floyd (especially the solo guitar once you have a good buzz)
    "House is a'rockin" - Stevie Ray Vaughan

    • happyfundave, on 02/24/2008, -0/+1I cannot speak for the other 2 songs but Comfortably Numb is not about drinking at all. "Ok just a little pinprick, there'll be no more ahhhhhhhhh"
  • wrestlingnrj, on 02/24/2008, -1/+2Garth Brooks FTW!
  • Scruffydan, on 02/24/2008, -0/+2The Alabama Song
  • BaronVonTito, on 02/24/2008, -2/+1I can't take anything seriously that has a Garth Brooks song over "Beer" by Reel Big Fish.
    • mouthster, on 02/24/2008, -0/+1I can't take Reel Big Fish seriously.
  • AuTigerfan, on 02/24/2008, -0/+1"Is there a better match than music and alcohol?"
    Yes, pot and alcohol.
  • ModernChem, on 02/24/2008, -0/+1#3 is easily the best
  • iskin, on 02/24/2008, -0/+2Seven Drunk Nights by The Dubliners has always been a favorite for my friends and me.
  • monkmaster, on 02/24/2008, -0/+0Where the hell is Alestorm? Or Korpiklaani, for that matter?

  • wwli, on 02/24/2008, -0/+0frfrgrgrgr grgrg
  • WhoDoneIt, on 02/24/2008, -0/+0While I like most of those songs, you can't beat anything by the Irish Rovers or Great Big Sea. Come on! Irish/Celtic music is the BEST when drinking pints of lager and ale. Period.
  • nubbz51, on 02/24/2008, -0/+040 ounces to freedom so I'll take that walk....great song
  • KillaJazzBass, on 02/24/2008, -0/+1..according to whom?
