What's the one song that motivates you?

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?

Wow! You know, when I posed this thread over a year ago, I never imagined I'd get so many responses! Thanks, everyone. Please keep them coming!

 

Here's another few of my favorites (clean versions, for the sake of keeping it clean here):

 

  • Detroit vs Everybody by Eminem- Really gets back to the basics in hip-hop, and gets me insanely fired up.
  • Work Remix by A$AP Ferg- one of my favorite remixes ever. Every time I hear that intro, I drop to the ground and do like 20 pushups. 

That's all I got for now.

Hi all.

I love my rock. But when I'm using the punchbag, I really can't listen to Eye of the Tiger.Someting about it makes me cringe.

 

when Running I love Metallica, Slayer, Iron Maiden. Something "with rocks in it".

Lifting Weights/Kettlebells AC/DC.

Yoga & calming down. I lovethe works of Ozric Tentacles.

 

& for some reason, I have started to get int Kid Rock while on the Swiss Ball Smiley Frustrated

My Favourite is My Oedipus Complex. But the "bad" side of me loves So Hott. Am also a fan of Bawitdaba just for the energy. Kid Rock appeals because he brings out my younger more energetic self.

Usually when I feel like a heart attack is coming on during a high intensity work out i'll turn on Tame Impala - Be Above It.  I guess it's working because I don't give in and I'm not dead yet.
