Anybody have a song that when it comes on and you're starting to slow down in your workout, it immediately cranks you up?

I need more of those for my iPod. Tell me yours!

    My playlist is at least as heavy as what I'm lifting. Pantera, Lamb of God, Slayer, occasionally Godsmack, and Sepultura.
    If I'm running I might go a little lighter, like Halestorm or Led Zepplin, Motorhead, or Iron Maiden.

    Communication Breakdown---Led Zep
    Don't stop me know----Queen
    Can't stop---Red Hot Chili Peppers
    Helter Skelter---The Beatles

    And it may sound cliche...but the theme from Rocky and Going the distance also off the Rocky soundtrack....super motivating.
