It depends on what I'm doing, and whether or not I can listen to the music at loud or quiet levels.
For inspiration motivation I will listen to songs by Mideavil Babes, or maybe Moby, or Enya that sort of thing.
For get up and get it done type of stuff i might listen to Madball, or Drop Kick Murphys, Hi-Fi and The Road Burners, Cocksparrer, or Dance Hall Crashers.
Sometimes it's a crap shoot, and I'll throw in some Ska, or punk ala Ramones or Clash. -

Its creepy and dark at first, but it really is about standing up for what you believe in no matter what the consequences. -

sort of embarrasing, but our football highlight tape from my Junior year of high school featured this as the intro with some of our best clips. It was outdated then, but god help me, I hear this and I go back to that sesaon from 1994.

While it's not my favorite song, The Theme from Rocky makes me stop what I'm doing, run through the streets of the city -- up to the top of the art museum steps and have a cheese steak.

I wouldn`t exactly call it motivation, but it really cheers me up:

"I'm Still Here: from Stephen Sondheim's Follies, sung by Elaine Stritch.
So I'm a theatre geek! Oh well!

Don't know if you can call it "motivating" - but a good rendition of "Minstrel Boy" (it's a very old song) always manages to stir me.
Especially the lyrics:
"land of song, cried the warrior bard, though all the world betrays thee
one sword at least, thy rights shall guard
one faithfull harp shall praise thee."-
Worse, they had fishing line attached to all 16 of her nipples and when they wanted her to howl a guy off camera would pull on them. He was so adept at getting the right noise out of her that he could actually play tunes on her. After they stopped making the Lassie films they went out on the road together and in 1978 they opened for the Eagles in Chicago.

ON mY own -- Whitney HOuston
I'm wiser now
I'm not the foolish girl you used to know
So long ago
I'm stronger now
I've learned from my mistakes which way to go
And I should know
I put myself aside to do it your way
But now I need to do it all alone
And I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don't care if I'm right or wrong
I'll live my life the way I feel
No matter what I'll keep it real you know
Time for me to do it on my own... -
A motivating song for me would be something upbeat and preferably from the 80's.
"Eye of the Tiger" and "No More Tears (Enough is enough)" -
