Music to Motivate

I find music helpful in gearing me up to do my work around the house.  It has to be upbeat, something I can sing along with, and have a good beat that I can bop around to. 

Occasionally, I'll go with my album collection, but recently I've been listening to Pandora.  I have a station based on Train, one based on Billy Joel and a few others.  The Train and Billy Joel stations are the ones I listen to most when I am cleaning, though.

I started to wonder why music motivates me so much.  When I looked it up, I found this article from The Globe and Mail and realized how much it makes sense.  The music stimulates our brains and causes changes in our system which energize us.  The right music can affect your mood positively.

What music motivates you?  Maybe some of your suggestions will give me other options for musical motivation!
