Is this a serious post? Iāve spent the past 10 minutes pressing a space bar to my favourite songs to measure their BMP! 
TBH, if thereās a risk that people think my song isnāt uptempo enough, Iāll be using the following website over all of your picks!
looking forward to load of BPM counts being left in the comment sections
127 BPM - must try harder!
Iām straight up not voting for anything under 200
Uptempo is something you know when you hear it, donāt consider it a bpm thing. Reggaeton always strikes me as quite uptempo but I donāt think it goes above 110bpm much.
and vice versa, wouldnāt call speedy trash metal upbeat either
gonna need someone to define the acceptable tempo ranges imo. Does Allegretto count, or are we talking strictly Allegro an beyond?
Iāve interpretated uptempo as a mood, ie upbeat. So danceable, sounds happy but with sad lyrics.
Waiting to be disqualified by the metronome crowd. 
Same here!
Oh deary me, to quote a swift Google search I managed to carry out all on my own, āupbeat & uptempo are not synonymsā
I get the feeling Iām going to barely have to spend any time listening to half of this playlist!!
Can I play please? Havenāt joined in since the early days but I;d like to listen to some music league, if i may.
ā¦ā¦
No worries if not!!!
Can someone please think of the melancholia?!
In the same way Unfinished Sympathy is something like 120bpm, but doesnāt feel it all. Iām just going for the know it when I hear it approach, and nervously reassessing my own pick
True, but uptempo melancholia would be (according to a Google search) melancholia played with āa fast or increased tempoā.
So if weāre going down this route we need to establish a baseline tempo for melancholia against which we can judge the relative āfastnessā or speed increase of the songs submitted.
This is my round, Iām basically just looking for melancholic songs that arenāt slow. It doesnāt have to be super fast or anything. If there were a āsad songsā round most peopleās first thought would be to pick something slow and quiet, so Iām basically just trying to eliminate those from the pool.
1979 is actually a perfect example. Just in case one of you is David Pajo:
Yep. Donāt worry about BPM.
So in this case, the hypothetical datum is relative only to other melancholia, rather than music in general? interesting.
You are very welcome!
Thatās how I viewed it (and also seems to be @TAFH33 's intention).
Whatās the league code??
Another great example that isnāt on Spotify - Neil Young (w Pearl Jam) - Iām the Ocean
