I would be lying if I said that I was not excited for this playlist. UCLA takes on Washingotn in Seattle, the mecca of grunge rock and an overall hot bed of great music. For this Pregame Playlist we are taking you on a musical journey filled with a lot of great 90’s songs, both rock and rap. Get ready everybody, because this (playlist for the) game is going to be huge! Kind of like when worlds collide! Here is the Go Joe Bruin Pregame Playlist, Washington Edition!
“I Want A Lot Now (So Come On)” – The Murder City Devils
With the season winding down, we all want a lot, like a victory over Washington that will get us one step closer to the Pac-12 Championship Game!
“Simple” – B. Allen
Former UCLA Baseball player and hip-hop aficionado B. Allen helps us out once again with his track, “Simple”. It is really. Win the game, stay alive in the South Division… simple.
“Man In A Box” – Alice In Chains
This is for the six and seven men in the box that will try to disrupt the Husky offense. Go Defense!
“Pump It Up” – Mudhoney
A cover by Seattle band Mudhoney. A perfect song for UCLA to get pumped up to!
“And We Danced” – Macklemore
Hopefully we see the Bruins dancing in the end zone a lot during this game!
“Rusty Cage” – Soundgarden
I would like to see Brett Hundley break out of his rusty cage and throw for 300 yards.
“Purple Haze” – Jimi Hendrix
Can the Bruins but the Huskies in a purple haze and get a victory up north? Do it!
“Baby Got Back” – Sir Mix-A-Lot
I had to put this Seattle rapper’s most famous song on here. Remember when it was banned? Awkward.
“Warriors On The Road” – The Casualties
If UCLA wins, that will be 6-0 on the road this season. Go Bruins!
“Smells Like Teen Spirit” – Nirvana
Is that what a football locker room smells like?
“DARE” – Gorillaz
Come on Washington, bring it! I DARE you!
“Long Train Runnin'” – ZEKE
This one is for Paul Perkins. Already over 1000 yards on the year! Keep it going!
“When Worlds Collide” – Powerman 5000
Did you hear there is a “Running backer” battle? The battle of the two-way players happens today as Myles Jack and Shaq Thompson could see each other on opposite sides of the ball while both are on the field at the same time. Crazy.
“Victory” – Diddy
One game at a time, Bruins.
