    Yeah it’s unknown but I always think of this. FortyTwenty was a local cow punk band and every show was a a complete and utter fall down hammered event. War Pigs intro’d into the song about one of em trying to not drink.

    Hofbräuhaus Newport, KY circa 2007-ish is one of my most vivid memories of a drunk Saturday night: this song played on accordion. Unmatchable.



    For a 2-3 month stretch in 2011 this one was a banger:

    There will never be any occasion where I don’t immediately turn off/leave the room if Toby Keith or Alan Jackson (and many, many other trash country artists) start playing.

    Closing Time by Semisonic also a winner for getting drunken idiots to sing along to a song they likely only know the words “closing time one last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or beer”

    Toby Keith Recalls Getting 'Really Sick' After Drinking Alcohol for the First Time


    By GAYLE THOMPSON - March 18, 2020 11:37 am EDT

    • It's a wonderToby Keith ever picked up a drink again after his first experience. The 58-year-old vividly recalls the first time he ever had alcohol, before he was even old enough to drink legally, and getting incredibly sick from over-imbibing.


      "It was a Flaming Armadillo," Keith told CMT's Cody Alan. "It's like three liquors, and they set it on fire, and you blew it out, and you put ice water down the rim and down it. It was so hot from the flame that it had like an aromatic thing that went up in your nose like horseradish and blew your head off.

      "I was eating in a steakhouse and was underage, and I remember, I said, 'I want another,'" he continued. "I just thought, 'I'll take advantage of this.' I got a little over-served, and I puked for like three days. I was really sick."


      Keith has had plenty of success in country music, especially with drinking songs like "Beer for My Horses," "I Love This Bar," "Red Solo Cup" and others, but he says he likely would have never become a household name without his debut single, "Should've Been a Cowboy," released in 1993.

      "I was a songwriter, and I wanted to be a songwriter whether I was a singer or not," Keith previously told PopCulture.com and other media. "The artist [thing], I just got lucky. I just wanted to be a songwriter. If [being an] artist would've never happened, somebody would've cut those songs. So that's what I wanted to do no matter what, even if you got sick and couldn't perform or something, you'd still write songs.


      "I know one thing, this song – everything I've done in my catalog, and I've recorded hundreds of songs I wrote and probably charted somewhere along a hundred or more – none of them probably would've ever been heard if it hadn't been for 'Should've Been a Cowboy' ... That song, and a follow-up single ('He Ain't Worth Missing'), gave me enough breathing room to find my way, whereas a lot of people didn't get that chance."

    haha - yea I was trying to think of which songs have always immediately gotten people drinking in my experience not the actual lyrics so I'm sure I completely missed the intent of the thread but this would be a couple of what were automatic "bottles going out, bars are about to be slammed" ones

    It is not, its about as different from venga boys music as music can be really. Its more like a Colin Hay kinda sound, which is ironic given the content matter

    Idk about everyone else but I’ve never been encouraged to drink more by a song. There are songs about drinking. There are songs that are good while drinking. I don’t have any trigger songs. Ymmv.
