Do you have a a song that motivates you, or gets you moving? Does it have a catchy beat, uplifting lyrics, a hot dancebeat? Here are a few of mine to get started, take a listen:


YouTube - Mary J. Blige - Just Fine


YouTube - B.o.B I'll Be In The Sky (actual video) (I want this song to be played at my funeral!!!)


YouTube - Rascal Flatts -Me And My Gang / with lyrics

I don't listen to very much country, but I'm with you on Me and My Gang. What a fun song.

Here is a perfect example: all the songs played for the victoria secret spring collection show shown on tv this year! omg it moved me so much that I was doing the cat walk back & forth in my living room thinking I was one of those models! I have the attitude and walk down, it was the music that fired me up ... if I was only thinner ... when I was 2nd runner up for ms.bell of bay fest ... it wasn't becuz I didn't think I couldn't becum what I wanted ... model or not ... I wanted my name to be known in my lifetime ... I knew exactly what I was doing back then ... let the music continue to pull me through to achieve this goal inshullah

My favorite motivational song is "Never Surrender" by Corey Hart.

Others include: Into the Night (Benny Mardones) and Together Again by Janet Jackson.

This song gets me motivated to do anything from exercise to housework, or even getting ready to go out and I have it on a 12 inch vinyl record....

REO Speedwagon's "Roll with the Changes"

I'm not much for blasting music, but I love listening to that at ridiculous sound levels and it's all but impossible not to get fired up when listening to it.
