Moonhawk Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 SOS!! I'm not getting anything done!! I need energy. I need determination. I need to work. I need to take on the world and WIN. I need the soundtrack for my underdog-becomes-winner montage scene, a la Rocky. Suggestions? I'll take all decades, hype is the key. I've got Eye of the Tiger.

PeterPan Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 You can ask Alexa to play you energetic music and it will just play something. I usually use the soundtrack from Man of La Mancha for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEmama Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Do you like modern music? I created a Woke Like a Post Millennial playlist for working out/getting hyped/ feeling strong. I’ll share if modern pop is of interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My go to album when I need to get housework done is Bob Marley's Rastaman Vibrations. It has great energy. And--in the title track from the album--Bob sings out a line: "Are You Picking Up? Are You Picking Up Now?" And I always shout back: Yes Bob, I am! This one must be played at near-maximum volume for best effect. Good luck and positive vibrations.

How can you feel anything but awesome with that playing for you? I asked for that record (vinyl!) for my birthday when I was a little girl. 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm building from the ground up since I don't have Alexa, and I have been less than impressed by Pandora's playlist for me when I ask it for this, it just doesn't understand me like you guys do 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
