I am looking for a song to play that will remind me of why I am doing this, to keep me on track, and give me motivation when I am lacking.

What are some of your motivational songs that get you going?

  • This is my motivational song "Fade Away" by 12 Stones! I'm not sure what your favorite type of music is but 12 Stones is a Christian Rock band that i absolutely love. I can honestly say every song I have of their's is awesome. I hope you like this one. I've posted the lyrics below. This song used to come on my IPOD at the end of my long distance runs and the part in the song that says "I WON"T FADE AWAY" just inspired me not to give up (or fade away). It is basically telling me that it's tough but I have god and I can get through the pain. I know you can too! It also makes me think of someone who's challenged my in life and it's like you're telling them in the song that they can't bring you down just because they don't believe in you.

    "Fade Away" 12 Stones

    I need you to feel exactly like I do inside
    But I feel so alone again
    I try to find a better life
    Somewhere far away from here
    But I need you to believe in me

    But I won`t be afraid
    Just because you don`t need me
    I will not be ashamed
    Just because you don`t believe in anything that I say
    Now I turn and I walk away from you

    I won`t fade away
    I won`t fade away again

    I find you down the road that I have walked before
    And I know you`re alone again
    You try to find a better life
    Somewhere far away from here
    But I need you to believe in me

    You try to make me fade away

    Awesome guys! Thanks! I am going to check all the ones I don't know out. I need an angry song to fire me up! I need a drill sergeant really. LoL

    For angry stuff, I like Disturbed, Rage Against the Machine, Godsmack, Linkin Park, and Slipknot... esp the song "Duality" recently... I'm the same way with needing angry music!!!
  • You should see the video to sexy and I know it. It is actually making fun of a guy who thinks he is sexy but is not. I like Rock that Body by black eyed peas
  • Love the song my chick bad! have you heard the female version?

    This is my motivational song "Fade Away" by 12 Stones!

    i used to love this band... totally forgot about them.... good reminder, i'm hopping over to iTunes :)

    OP, assuming that you're looking for upbeat, try RATM, Moby, Daft Punk....
  • Cool, I will have to check out those bands too! I've been looking for some new stuff!

    Eminem all the way haha. And any song that I've seen in a motivating video or movie. For example, the Rocky theme.

    Found a new one thanks to the GI Joe trailer I saw at the movies tonight (I took my son to see Hunger Games). It's a Dubstep version of Seven Nation Army. Sadly, not a speaker in the house can do it justice, but it's still fun to work out to.
  • :happy: That was totally what I listened to yesterday as I got back on the workout mode. It is Disturbed that made me go around the track again.

  • One of my favorite 'angrier' songs that I listen to when I want to get pumped up during a work out is 'O.G. Loko' by Of Mice and Men. It's not too angry and has really great lyrics (plus his voice is AMAZING) "Meet my dedication, inspiration, it may be smothering you, but you know it's the truth." Get's me absolutely pumped up every single time :) Hope you find the perfect song!

    ''Settlin'' by Sugarland

    '' I've been leaving it up to fate
    It's my life so its mine to make

    I ain't settling for just getting by
    I've had enough so so for the rest of my life
    Tired of shooting too low,so raise the bar high
    Just enough aint enough this time
    I aint settling for anything less than everything,yeah.
