Totally Tunes: Party Hard Party Hard Party Hard

 PARTY! In case you haven't realized what this article's about, it's about partying. It's not something many of us can do right now, not at least in big crowds or outside due to the whole chaos the world's sunken in, but might as well celebrate music's attempts at having us party and trash ourselves for a whole evening. Remember to read this article safely and responsibly.

As it's common for this feature, I'll start the article with the song that gave it its subtitle, in this case a very fun, very crazy (par for the course) Andrew W.K. tune that's about, well, partying hard.

The Beastie Boys had a big hit back in the day with this absolutely silly track that's still a replay favorite in music channels and in movies that use it unironically.

Speaking of endless replays and over-usage in pop culture, we have one of P!nk's greatest hits, one that was actually rejected by Madonna! Can you imagine Madge singing it? I'm gonna go with the great Dame Shirley Bassey's version of the track for this article because, c'mon, it's Shirley Bassey.

On the subject of the greats in music, and also reusing yet another classic of this feature's Whistler-era nonsense, I can't not have an Elton John song on this list. I'm gonna go with this fun Bernie-written romp about Saturday night party fun, which may or may not include brawling (be shocked at the fact that I'm not embedding Rocketman's version!):

And to close, I'm gonna give you THE MOST FUN PARTY SONG EVER.

What's your favorite song about partying? Do you prefer upbeat party songs or depressing ones?
