What's the one song that motivates you?

[EmersonFitbit]

I have that one song. You have that one song. We all have that one song. Some people have more than one song (that's okay!). What is the one song that gets you fired up?

For me, if I'm diggin' some alternative, it's Sleigh Bells' "Infinity Guitars." If I need to hear some nice hip-hop to get my workout going, my go-to is Kanye West's "Power."  If I need some EDM in my life, I go with this amended version of Lana Del Ray's "Summertime Sadness." As far as song in movies go, John William's composition of "Battle of the Heroes" does it for me!

As a bonus, my good friend @GraceFitbit reminded me how good the year 2005 was, and went with Beyoncé's Crazy In Love .

Above all else, there is the one song that gets me ready to work hard and reach for the improbable. It is one of the most popular songs in the history of the world, and universally one of the most motivating. I am speaking, of course of Ludwig Van Beethoven's "5th Symphony in C Minor."

Now that you have an idea of what songs get our blood ready to flow and our hearts ready to race, we have to know- what song motivates you?

Hahahaha! I'm glad you found a way to stay alive  Excellent contribution @afrantzipants.

Ooo there's so many yet I still go back to my old favorites Earth Wind & Fire's Boogie Wonderland ...

Fitbit radio would be awesome!

[Brown-eyedG2]

BeeGees "You should be dancing"
And Santana O yea Como Va (?sp)

I second Fitbit Radio @MissMel

[DavideFitbit]

That's another great song from the Bee Gees @Brown-eyedG2!  Fitbit radio would certainly be awesome @MissMel, I encourage you to share this idea in the "Feature Request" section of the community so we can vote for it and the developers can take it into consideration. 

[Brown-eyedG2]

Thanks @DavideFitbit! Music really takes me from 0-60 it's so much fun. As I'm sure everyone has their favorites that moves them. I like most kinds of music, its diverse,... mood-altering, motivating, uplifting, relaxing right?

[Mcore]

That would be such an awesome idea @MissMel. Would you mind sharing your idea in the Feature Request board? I bet it will get a lot of votes. 

Thanks!

I will jever forget the ONE day I forgot my headphones when I was at the gym. It was perhaps the worst workout every. Music changes and helps everything in my world! I have been loving all of the posts and threads here. I search all of the suggestions and have downloaded so many of them. Thank you to everyone for sharing this with all of us!

I hear you.  I had a short moment of panic when I found out a lot of races won't let you wear headphones, and I had never run without them.  I did just fine, but as the distances increase, so does my need to be a bit distracted.

[DavideFitbit]

You're totally right @Brown-eyedG2, everyone has a different kind of music that works for them. I personally need something motivating so I can keep going. 

That's happened to me a few times @KikiF and @Raviv, at the beginning is fine, but after a while you do need to get distracted a little bit to keep the pace.

Lol I just signed up for Spartan in June 2016. No headphones! Not that you could with that course but still!!!

You can do it @KikiF! just repeat the songs in your head whenever you need to get distracted for a moment. Good luck with the Spartan race.

ELO and Elderado is on my gym play list. I just get cought up in the music and forget how long I have been working out for.

[Mcore]

Hey guys! Well, I have to add this song to this thread. It's been playing every single day on the radio:  Silento "Watch Me".  

It's hard to get that song out of your head, isn't it? Hahaha!

[KikiF]

Am I the only one into seriously heavy metal? I really like strength training to pantera, children of bodom, and megadeth. Makes me feel unstoppable 💪
