150 BPM Songs: A Measured Preview List

These six linked recordings produced readings from 148.2 to 150.1 BPM in our browser BPM Finder. We screened the available short previews on October 9, 2026, keeping raw results inside a declared 148–152 BPM window. “Near 150” describes this shortlist; it does not certify a whole song or settle which pulse level a listener should count.

Each number is exactly the one-decimal display from our browser BPM Finder; the difference column is subtraction, not another audio analysis. Download the full 25-query screening log, including results outside the window and two queries with no matching preview record.

Read the window before choosing a track

A headline tempo is a search shortcut, not a measurement rule. We kept preview readings no farther than 2 BPM from the 150 reference and left every accepted display unchanged. That makes the table reproducible: Avril Lavigne’s selected version displayed 150.0; Neon Trees’ explicitly identified revisited version displayed 148.2. Neither was rounded to create a match.

The difference column helps compare this small selection without hiding the spread. It does not rank a recording’s quality, fitness suitability, or whole-track stability. If you need a strict beat-grid match for a specific edit, test the same release and passage in your own copy rather than relying on the headline number.

Version and excerpt matter

The source links identify individual Deezer catalog records, not a universal tempo for every issue bearing a song title. One listing is a revisited Neon Trees version; another is a named workout remix of Kesha’s “Praying.” Keeping those versions visible prevents a remix reading from being mistaken for the original release.

We analyzed the complete preview file associated with each linked record. The source did not state where those excerpts begin in their full recordings. We therefore cannot give a verified full-track timestamp or say that the same pulse continues through every section.

What the screening did not include

We tested 23 available preview files in the same site tool. Six fell inside the declared 148–152 BPM window. Examples outside it include “Shake It Off” from 1989 (Taylor’s Version) at 160.1, “Dog Days Are Over” from Between Two Lungs at 75.4, and “Mr. Brightside” from the Nu Rock listing at 147.9. The CSV preserves all raw results so the shortlist does not conceal near misses or unrelated readings.

“Mr. Brightside” missed the chosen lower boundary by 0.1 BPM, but that is a consequence of our stated filter, not evidence that the track can never be counted near 150. A different passage, release, or pulse level may produce a different display. We did not alter the filter after seeing the results.

Questions about songs near 150 BPM

Are all these songs exactly 150 BPM?

No. The raw displays span 148.2–150.1 in the selected previews. The page uses “near 150” and keeps those values visible rather than rounding them to the headline.

Can a short preview establish the tempo of a whole recording?

No. It shows what the analyzer returned for that preview file. We did not scan every section, establish an error margin, or verify the preview’s start point within the full recording.

Why could another listener get half or double this value?

A recording can support more than one plausible pulse level, such as a broad beat and its subdivisions. Our analyzer reports its strongest detected repeating pulse; it does not know which level you intend to count. Compare the result with the passage and use the same level consistently.

Recording sources and test conditions

On October 9, 2026, each linked Deezer preview was selected through Chrome in the live Tap BPM Now BPM Finder and allowed to finish analysis. The tool processed the selected audio in the browser. Deezer track pages identify the versions and make the source records inspectable; no audio or lyrics are hosted here. The preview start positions, full-track stability, intended beat level, and analyzer error margin are not stated. The full screening CSV lists every query, record ID, raw display, inclusion decision, method, date, and ambiguity note.

To test one yourself, open the local BPM Finder and select an audio file already on your device. For a passage you cannot load, use the manual tempo tapper and record which pulse you counted.
