Songs about werewolves or that definately apply to werewolfish experiences. Preferable upbeat pop/rock (not metal tho). Any suggestions are appreciated, thx!
Edit: Due to tonal drift, werewolf folk is also requested and 'upbeat' is not strictly required.
I was a Teenage Werewolf - The Cramps
Killer Wolf - Danzig
Wolfblood - Misfits
May not fit what you're looking for, but my first thoughts are:
Radiohead - Wolf at the Door!
Shakira - She Wolf
pedestrian wolves- oingo boingo
Bark at the moon - Ozzy
Bat out of hell - Meatloaf, for the spoken-word intro
Werewolf Shame by Direct Hit!
Werewolf by Motionless in White
Since TV on the Radio was suggested already I'll put in Howling at the Moon by Phantogram
Anything by Powerwolf really
The Werewolf - Paul Simon
Metallica - of wolf and man
It's hard rock but metal adjacent, maybe you won't want it
Wolf Like Me by TV on the Radio
This one, but IMO Lera Lynn and Shovels and Rope did a cover of this song that I like better. It feels more intimate and personal.
I Was a Teenage Werewolf by The Cramps is great.
Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival was used for the transformation scene in An American Werewolf in London, so I always associate it with that.
Edit: I didn't know the song Wolfman, but now it's on my Halloween playlist. :)
"I'm the Wolf" - Howlin' Wolf
Give that Wolf a Banana by Subwoolfer would fit.
Eta: check out their other songs, they have a whole wolves eating grandmas theme.
Little Red Riding Hood, by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs.
Still of the Night, by Whitesnake. Metal, but old school.
Monster Mash, by Bobby Pickett
Thriller, by Michael Jackson
Howlin' At The Moon by Hank Williams
"Clap for the Wolfman" by the Guess Who maybe?
He gonna rate your record high.
Big Bad Wolf - In This Moment Edit: shit, just saw that you don't want metal. Leaving it, maybe someone else does 🤷
It's appreciated anyway <3
Which app are you using?
OpenTune, a youtube music client
Looks good!
Bear Ghost - 12 Years Howled, may be a but metal-y though
🎶You look so good in the glow of the full moonlight
🎶Oh baby you bring out the beast in me (oh shit!)
Was going to post this but you beat me to it :( love this song and this band.
The lupine waltz, piano only, short, not pop rock.
But I still wanted to share it because it's cute
The rest of the album is maybe what you're looking for. From a quick listen its electro swing, rock, bit of everything
Phish has a song Wolfman's Brother that is pretty upbeat and the album version from Hoist is a very reasonable 4 and a half minutes.
