"Safe" song with a driving beat for Best Buddies video
December 18, 2009 10:58 AM

Looking for a song with a beat like Tik Tok by Ke$ha or Tonight's Gonna be a Good Night by Black-Eyes Peas but without references to drinking or "language" for a video.

I volunteered to produce a video for Best Buddies and rather than the typical inspirational stuff they use I am trying to create something that is a bit more "cool" and "fun", not as much Goo Goo Dolls "Give a Little Bit", which they use too much. So both those songs have a great beat and are fun...looking for something like that but that won't risk offending...any thoughts? Bonus points if it has an inspirational message...

Ke$ha is a shameless rip-off of Uffie. Try Justice.

Try Evacuate the Dance Floor by Cascada. It's pretty clean and upbeat.

The radio version of "I Gotta Feeling" by The Black-Eyed Peas (that's the actual title of the song you mentioned) is clean. Might want to search for that.

This mashup of Justice's "D.A.N.C.E." and the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back" is squeaky clean and always puts a smile on my face. Memail me if you want an MP3 of it.

Jurassic 5 "Work it out".. Listen to it with a fine tooth comb, but I think it's pretty innocuous.. A little more downtempo than "I got a feeling" though, I guess.

A chunk from gui boratto's beautiful life might work?
