Up Up Up Up Up Up is the ninth album by singer-songwriter Ani DiFranco, released in 1999 on Righteous Babe Records (see 1999 in music).

"Angry Anymore" was released to radio, but did not chart. Its promotional single featured a radio remix and an extended mix; the banjo intro to the track was sampled for a later DiFranco track, "The Arrivals Gate", released on To the Teeth.

"Jukebox" was nominated for a Grammy Award in the category of Female Rock Vocal Performance.
