<p>I was just reading an article about Phelps and his playist so I decided to post this thread. What are your top songs that you listen to for motivation before a big competition?</p>
<p>Mine would be</p>
<p>Lose Yourself-Eminem
Stronger-Kanye West
After Dinner Payback-From Autumn to Ashes
Pts. Of Authority-Linkin Park</p>
<p>Umm i cant think of anymore rt now</p>
<p>The rocky song?</p>
<p>It's My Life - Bon Jovi
Never Let Down - Andrew W.K
Eye of the Tiger - Rocky</p>
<p>lose yourself, sing for the moment, rabbit run, til i collapse all by eminem.</p>
<p>Tokyo Police Club - Listen to the Math
Modest Mouse - Fire It Up
Daft Punk - One More Time
The Fall of Troy - F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X.
Jimmy Eat World - Get It Faster</p>
<p>^Til I Collapse is a good one. I don't know that many people who've heard it....</p>
<p>^ Yeah, I totally agree with that.</p>
<p>I also recommend:</p>
<p>Remember the Name by Fort Minor
Big Things Poppin' by T.I.
The Final Countdown</p>
<p>nothing else matters -- metallica</p>
<p>Homecoming/The Death of St. Jimmy- Green Day</p>
<p>6 Gun Quota- Seether</p>
<p>Headstrong- Trapt</p>
<p>Like Suicide- Seether</p>
<p>All of these are harder songs, not the uplifting beat songs... They kinda calm me down? Whatever. I love 'em.</p>
<p>Aerodynamic [sp?] - Daft Punk</p>
<p>You Raise Me Up- Josh Groban</p>
<p>The Fall of Troy - F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X.</p>
<p>NICE
I LUV THAT SONG</p>
<p>Viva la Vida - Coldplay
Hero - Superchic
Walking on Air - Kerli</p>
<p>I second Remember the Name by Fort Minor.</p>
<p>Roy Jones Jr. - Can't be Touched</p>
<p>Best pump up song. Ever.</p>
<p>We are the champions by Queen</p>
<p>Anything by Daft Punk will do the trick.</p>
<p>Lol, don't know how well this applies to "before a big competition" but whenever I'm driving out of my school's parking lot, I like to crank up Another One Bites the Dust [Queen], lol, reminding myself that I got through another school day alive :D
I like T.N.T. - AC/DC, or pretty much anything by them.</p>
