I'm bring sexy back!

Sexy back by Justin timberlake

Definitely "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" from Cyndi Lauper for all the fun times we share here.

"With You" from Jessica Simpson. These lines make me want to wear a white t-shirt without feeling large and out of shape:

I can let my hair down
I can say anything crazy
I know you'll catch me right before I hit the ground
With nothing but a T-shirt on
I never felt so beautiful
Baby, as I do now
Now that I'm with you
With you, with you, with you
Now that I'm with you

"Control" from Janet Jackson

"Another One Bites the Dust"----take that pounds!

Fun thread, thank you Lunarsongbird!

It's not current or particularly inspirational, but Elton John's "Crocodile Rock" can make me instantly happy whenever I hear it. I go right back to his appearance on The Muppet Show a looooooonnnngggg time ago! Love the singing crocs!

Go to 1:30 to skip intro (But that's cute, too!)

I'm waay into picking theme music for my goals. My current self improvement theme song:
"Mind strong, Body strong.
Try to find equilibrium
Head straight, screwed on
Been [screwin' off] for too long"
Bush, Sound of Winter

The Bush video is kind sucky, but here is the much cooler Game of Thrones one:

I just heard Kelly Clarkson "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". I needed to hear that right now, worrying about tomorrow morning's weigh-in.

I love that song elvislover

Defying Gravity is my personal mantra (I celebrated three years of maintenance by getting "Defy Gravity" tattooed on my ribcage).

My running power song (you know, the one you put on when you want to quit) is "Get Over It" by the Eagles.

I am also very fond of "Giant", by Melissa Etheridge.

I have a mix.

Standing outside the fire, Garth Brooks.
Better be good to me, Tina Turner.
Thunderstruck!
Highway to ****!
Proud, the original Biggest Loser song.
The ***** is Back, Elton John.
Some Toby Kieth, some Lady Antebellum, some Whitesnake, some Kid Rock.
Billy Idol! Running with the Devil, whoever did that one.

If you're going through ****, keep on moving! Can't recall off the top of my head who does that one.

Sweet Home Alabama!

It's and odd mix, and I pick certain ones for certain things. I do push ups to Tina Turner! I do lunges to Highway to ****, chin ups to Standing outside the fire, and so on.

Oh I have a LOT of songs that I listen to which motivate me or when I am walking or running to keep me going.

The Short List:
"Go Hard" Nicki Minaj
"Faint/Jigga What" Linkin Park and JayZ
"Uprising" Muse
"Take a Little Ride" Jason Aldean
"Country Girl (Shake it for Me)" Luke Bryan
"Rasie Your Weapon" Deadmau5 Noisa Remix
"Sweet Talk" Kito Rejia Lee
"Breath of Life" Florence and The Machine

And numerous others!

Every storm (runs out of rain) by Gary Allen
Awesome for those hard days.

Die Mfer Die - Dope (This is the one I chant to the fat cells!! and it's just basically that phrase over and over, I find it's a good one to lift too)

Under Pressure by David Bowie
Lungs by Florence and the Machine
Fat Bottom Girls (Glee version)
Mama Said Knock You Out by LL Cool J
