in Motivation and Support
So I'm curious to know, because I love music, what song motivates you to get off your bum and do something, or makes you push a little harder, or inspires you, or just plain makes your heart happy? I want to make a super awesome kick-butt mix on my phone in case pandora can't light a fire under my bum at the gym some day...

    All I can think of right now is Kelis' "Milkshake". Pretty much anything you think you would dance to in a club is what does it for me.

    There is one song that gets me going faster then any other.....Helter Skelter, by the Beatles. First I has a good beat, great lyrics and in a pinch you can pretend a member of the Manson family is chasing you.
