Here’s a playlist comprised exclusively of songs with the word ‘tiger’ in the title! You may think this kind of thing wouldn’t work, but it does. Once I made a playlist dedicated to the word ‘lion’ and was pretty impressed with the results.
The next one will be devoted to bears! Obviously. Box set.

I feel like this playlist sorely needs this one: http://youtu.be/btPJPFnesV4
Obvious, I know. But how could you not?
Also Cage the Elephant’s “Sabertooth Tiger” : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOsBl1DA1Xc
Yeah I don’t even like that song but I was like WHERE IS IT? because it’s the only song that comes to mind when I think of songs about tigers.
Had to be done: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWpA5iY2V1I
Hahaha. So sensual.
you could have an entire playlist composed of songs called ‘paper tiger’! in which i would also include margot and the nuclear so and so’s’ ‘paper kitten nightmare’ because appropriate.
And and and Psapp’s “Tiger, My Friend”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuGwfODdh0s
a tiger playlist with out Eye of the Tiger!!?? i’m shocked. but also had no idea there were so many “tiger” songs
you guys, ‘eye of the tiger’ is actually a terrible song! playlists have prerequisites and one of them is that the song doesn’t suck and another one is that the song doesn’t remind me of giant sweaty men! damn, y’all.
i’m fucking sensitive today.
I really like Eye of the Tiger. It helps me get out of bed in the morning and feel epic instead of asleep. But I totally hear you about the giant sweaty men thing. Still, I will mentally add it to this playlist.
I like “Eye of the Tiger” solely because it reminds me of this blooper from ‘Supernatural’ (that was from the last episode I watched before giving up on that fucking show, but it’s hilarious and makes me happy) and this physicist action montage from ‘Big Bang Theory’.
I was hoping someone would bring up Supernatural. :D
ST. VINCENT’S YEAR OF THE TIGER.
there is also an incredible sufjan stevens track of the same name.
i have adopted this song as my personal anthem as of late. it’s been going pretty well
This is EXACTLY what I needed today, and I didn’t even know it. These songs are awesome!
Also I’m laughing at this: “8tracks offers thousands of the best free online tiger mixes from members like Autostraddle and many more.”
Also – so after the bears dealio = flying monkey playlist, yes?
Lions and Tigers by Asobi Seksu <33
Ryan Adams’ album – Easy Tiger
I have made several playlists exclusively from songs about alcohol. Trying to do it without any country songs is a challenge at times, but can be done… although some of the country songs are my favorite.
Also a numbers playlist. I did that once too. Good times.
I currently have 1895 songs on my iTunes and not one of them has the word ‘tiger’ in it. How is this possible?
8643.1 song.1 band name.1 album title.
fun fact:
73 songs have the word ‘boy’ in them
and
73 songs have the word ‘girl’
coincident? I don’t think so. It’s called Bisexuality.
of my 3300-ish songs I have 23 with the word boy and 38 with the word girl in their title. i think that reflects me pretty well lol
Aw I love this playlist!
I remade it on spotify for my own listening purposes, and added in Eno’s “Taking Tiger Mountain”, along with both St. Vincent’s and Sufjan’s “Year of the Tiger” tracks. Perfection.
aww yeah good eno album
I quite like the Love Cats from the DEBS soundtrack, but I’m not really sure it makes the cut since it doesn’t technically have tiger in the title.
I’m in such a spectacular mood after having a 4 hour nap and finishing my finals that I’ve listened to this playlist twice and a majority of the recommendations. Well done everyone.
RAWRRRRRRRRRR.
woa easy there tiger!
meowww ;3 *purrrrr*
Easy Tiger by Kids in Glass Houses has been mentally added to this playlist.
We Tigers! Wee Tigers! WEEEE TIGERS
Sleater-Kinney – Lions and Tigers
YES!!!!!!
And Tiger Trap (Rose Melberg)!
^ Coupled w/ Laneia’s suggestion of bears = Wizard of Oz line “Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!” —> Friends of Dorothy/ Irony
This is a fun play list. Please add “The Tiger has Spoken” by Neko Case and it will be complete!
yes.
The Vaccines = My favorite
“Sleep Tight Tiger” by Husky Rescue.
I feel like I should listen to this playlist just because I have a tiger tattoo
Miniature Tigers – Cannibal Queen. Also, I am pro Eye of the Tiger. In junior high my coach played it before every game. People are usually confused when I know every word.
No The Tigers Have Spoken by Neko Case?
Also this playlist warms my little tiger heart.
Wild Tigers i have known – Emily jane white!
