Straight Ahead is a song recorded by German electronica duo Tube & Berger, featuring vocals by American singer/songwriter Chrissie Hynde. The track was co-written by Liz Winstanley, Marko Vidovic and Arndt Rörig and produced by King Brain.
"Straight Ahead" is best known for its tweeky synthesizer melodic sound and a computerized female vocal (provided by Winstanley) chanting the chourus "...straight ahead...in one direction..." throughout the entire song. The single also gave Hynde her first ever number one single in Billboard magazine, where it reached the top spot on the magazine's Hot Dance Airplay chart.
Although the track charted in English, the duo also recorded a German-language version.
