Songs for a football highlight video

24isthelaw

Simple question - what songs do you think would sound great with some football highlights? Preferably some original ones (loose translation: NOT let the bodies hit the floor)

I always thought Rock n Roll Part 2 by Gary Glitter was great in football videos. I think it's very nostalgic too. I remember when I was in like third grade watching Ahmad Bradshaw in high school and the band would always play this and I think they put it in his highlight video too.

Depends what kind of football highlights.

If its a Running Back, "The Beast" by Tech N9ne is a great song.

For quarterbacks, I'll use a techno song or something of that nature and make sure the clips fit in with the beat.

All Of The Lights is realy good for this. I think that's been done a lot though.

This would probably work.

All of the Lights and Song 2 are nice options. Song 2 isn't long enough though.

It depends what genre you want I guess? Rap or hard rock?

Go Hard DJ Khaled/Kanye

Just an up tempo beat with bass and drums usually works

Some songs that are used a lot are:
Forever - Drake
Remember the Name - Fort Minor
Here comes the boom - Nelly
World's greatest - R. Kelly
Heart of the Champion - Nelly
Till I Collapse - Eminem
Life in the Fast Lane - Bad meets Evil

A song that I liked when I heard it in a highlight video was:
Follow - Breaking Benjamin(heard it in an Emmitt Smith vid and it was perfect for that vid)
