If you could pick one song to get yourself pumped up before athletic competition ...
... what song would you pick?
Right now, I'd have to go with ES Posthumus - Pompeii (the song at the end of the Spider-man trailer). |
Who Let The Dogs Out- Baha Men :)
Seriously, for me it would be something upbeat and heavy. Can't put a finger on a particular song right now. But thats just me |
Back in Black by AC/DC
Trampled Underfoot by Zeppelin |

During my cross-country days it was The Offspring's Smash album.

Originally posted by heimerSWT Good pick! I found this album on a newsgroup about 2 or 3 months ago. I haven't been able to find it on Amazon or CDNow yet. Awesome music. |

Originally posted by heimerSWT Thanks. I didn't know there was an official website. (I didn't even know if I had the correct name of the group or song titles.) |

"Killing in the Name" by Rage Against the Machine was the first one that came to my mind...
|
You can listen to the song Pompeii at the above site, I am not sure if it is possible to download it.
Anyway, I always liked the Scorpions to get pumped up. |
Rocket From The Crypt - I Drink Blood
|
Simon Says - Pharoah Monch
or Fight Club - Fat Joe (and others) |
onyx - slam is another good one.
most heavy metal is pretty good, along with various types of techno. |
some of the stuff on "classical thunder" is pretty good, too.
especially wagner. |
Front 242 - Headhunter
Frontline Assembly - Mindphaser Skinny Puppy - Assimilate [r23 Mix] Nothing like Industrial/EBM to get the juices flowing. ;) -matt |

While the second song is far from upbeat, it definitely got the anger juices flowing. |
Originally posted by Huge Bean Most stuff by ACDC would work well, but i'd pick Thunderstruck as my #1 choice. my choice too :thumbsup: |
I've always like gangster rap to pump me up, like When will they Shoot? by Ice Cube
|
Right now, "Passion" by Blackalicious really gets me going when I'm running.
|
Faith No More - A Small Victory.
"The small victories The cankers and medallions They keep me thinking That someday I might beat you But I'll just keep my mouth shut " |
It may sound lame to most of you but I can't believe no one has mentioned the theme from Rocky.
I was listening to the soundtrack the other day on the treadmill (I rotate my cds) & I thought I was gonna run off the thing. |
Burt Bacharach's I'll never fall in love again:
What do you get when you fall in love? A guy with a pin to burst your bubble That's what you get for all your trouble. I'll never fall in love again. I'll never fall in love again. What do you get when you kiss a guy? You get enough germs to catch pneumonia. After you do, he'll never phone you. I'll never fall in love again. I'll never fall in love again. Don't tell me what is all about, 'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out, Out of those chains, those chains that bind you That is why I'm here to remind you What do you get when you fall in love? You get enough tears to fill an ocean That's what you get for your devotion. I'll never fall in love again. I'll never fall in love again. What do you get when you fall in love? You only get lies and pain and sorrow. So, for at least until tomorrow, I'll never fall in love again! I'll never fall in love again! (Part of Bacharach/David Medley) Don't tell me what it's all about `Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out Out of those chains, those chains that bind you That is why I'm here to remind you. (here to mind you) 3x What do you get when you fall in love? You only get lies and pain and sorrow So, for at least, until tomorrow I'll never fall in love again Oh, I'll never fall in love again |
