RB, your compilation is hot, there is just so much music out there, good music out there. You could probably do a list of 1000…LOL
Nice list.
The next generation will have Vybz Kartel songs as inspiration.
Thanks
Corve, there is no vybes kartel on this list,besides Kartel songs have a life span of only several months.
There is a repeat of about 2 songs – Bon Jovi and Twista i think, so the list i really 98 unless they are remixes.
Yay for Incubus – Drive, best friggin band ever!
Tami, Thank you for pointing that out. I will now make the adjustments with a few suggests I got in the previous comments. I can not access your blog anymore, it says I need permission and a login?
I wonder whats the easiest way to get the youtube videos for all those song. hmmm….i maybe about to write application for that. hmmm
Tami. The two Bon Jovi Songs are different it’s My Life – Bon Jovi
Livin on a Prayer – Bon Jovi*There is really just one Twista
owen-That sounds like a lot of work. It would be interesting to see
where is Whitney Houston ” I believe the child are the future”
that’s good song. sorry the idea was just 100 songs
Whats your favorite breakfast food and do you ever eat this for other meals/snacks?

Great list! I was too excited to read it all, but I noticed a few great tracks when I skimmed through! I found another list of pump up songs last week, I’m on a roll!
Hopefully all this music will do it’s job in pumping me up so I build enough motivation to hit the gym again!
Thanks again, awesome post.

The English world is starving for a gooood motivational song! One absent of ‘f***’ and rocky music!! I am so shocked, after reading the lyrics of 150 recommended motivational songs, not one was able to move me!!!!!
this is fucking horrible.
I do accept as true with all of the ideas you’ve offered to your post. They’re very convincing and will certainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are very short for novices. May just you please lengthen them a little from subsequent time? Thank you for the post.
black eyed peas !!
you don’t listen to Bob Marley when you pump up!!!!!
lol @ Tommy
Till I collapse- Eminem ftw
Hope-Shaggy
Something inside so strong- labi siffre
this is one of the best playlist recently I found on the internet
This is truly music for life !!!
The point of no return- immortal technique should be on there
Shady list till I collapse is number 1
Thanks A Lot…
Really beautiful motivational songs. Thanks for sharing.. great songs to keep moving
