I wouldn’t say Push is up-beat. Or at least the fact that the refrain is so openly negative undercuts that vibe with immediacy, in comparison with Semi-Charmed Life, for example, where you don’t realize it’s all horrible unless you pay close attention.
Semi-Charmed Life by Third Eye Blind is the usual one I see brought up.
Push by Matchbox 20 and Possum Kingdom by Toadies are arguable ones.
Also, Richard Cheese covers a lot of raunchy and dark stuff in a vegas lounge singer style. Rape Me sung in a cheesy upbeat tone is a trip.

I fucking love Richard Cheese, especially his cover of Closer.
Check out his close friend and confidant, Johnny Aloha!
Omg, this is a true pickmeup 🤣🤣
The intro sounds like it’s some Blues Brothers number and then… I want to violate you
I wouldn’t say Possum Kingdom is upbeat even in sound.
Agreed. Maybe if it were set to the tune of Mr. Bluesky…
Please tell us guy
Please tell us why
You showed us your dark secret

I do love the Richard Cheese cover of Down With The Sickness.
