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)"

Oh, I dunno-- the Donnie Darko version of "Mad World." (Heh, kidding, kidding...) I don't think I actually have a motivating song. Maybe something they use at sports arenas, like "We are the Champions". :)

May sound funny, but "crazy" by Gnarls Barkley. No way can I stay still when that song comes on.

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...

It's lucky you married a woman with 3 nipples and then had the right number of kids. It could have been tragic if you'd had quads.

ekim941 on 'What is your motivating song? '

ekim941 — Wed, 07 May 2008 21:04:17 -0500

We have 3 kids. 3 nipples seemed to work out. Any more would just be wasteful.
Not to make mountains out of molehills or anything.

She only had 3? Was she a deformed Collie?

ekim941 on 'What is your motivating song? '

ekim941 — Wed, 07 May 2008 20:57:46 -0500

That's the same technique I used to get my ex wife to howl. Yep, attach a string to all 16 of her nipples.

Ok, she actually only had 3.

aningeniousname on 'What is your motivating song? '

aningeniousname — Wed, 07 May 2008 20:46:34 -0500

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.

You think peanut butter on the gums is bad?? You should of seen how they made Lassie howl!

kdawg68 on 'What is your motivating song? '

kdawg68 — Wed, 07 May 2008 20:28:45 -0500

LOL - they used to play that in my stall all night long. Plus the darned peanut butter they would put in my mouth. Painfull (yet delicious) memories. :)

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."

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.
