Music that gets you going...

What's you favorite music of choice that get's you going?

For me its electronic, more definitively Drum N Bass.

Beautiful Day U2

The heart is a bloom, shoots up through stony ground
But there's no room, no space to rent in this town
You're out of luck and the reason that you had to care,
The traffic is stuck and you're not moving anywhere.
You thought you’d found a friend to take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace


It's a beautiful day, the sky falls
And you feel like it's a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away


You’re on the road but you’ve got no destination
You’re in the mud, in the maze of her imagination
You love this town even if it doesn’t ring true
You’ve been all over and it’s been all over you


It's a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
It's a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away


Touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me, I know I’m not a hopeless case


See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out
It was a beautiful day
A beautiful day
Don’t let it get away


Touch me, take me to that other place
Reach me, I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don’t have you don’t need it now
What you don’t know you can feel it somehow
What you don’t have you don’t need it now
You don’t need it now, you don’t need it now
Beautiful day

Wake Up Call by Maroon 5. The lyrics are frightening, but the music gets me moving, and it's fun to sing along with.

On the other hand and on a lighter note, the B52's Love Shack is always fun.

some of those fun to dance to songs - the ones everybody pretends that they can't stand (but are really dancing to on the inside)
like. . .

Vanilla Ice Ice Baby

Michael Jackson - The Thriller Years - you know, Billie Jean, The Way You Make Me Feel, etc.

She's A Brick . . . Hoowse

songs like that kinda make it hard to stay sad - make ya wanna dance & forget about the troubles of the day!!

For me Mozart is my best way to both relax and get energized. Any classical will do, but Mozart is my favorite.

I heard a really good version of that by Sister Hazel the other day!

Lately I've been building a few stations at Pandora Radio - Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music . Tonic is one of my favorites!

This is a good song (and band for that matter) that gets me pshyced and pumped for a weight room session or driving into work.

"Fortunate Son" by Creedance Clearwater Revival is the most rocking song in existence.
