What do you play to get inspired or motivated? For me it has to be rock music, not necessarily religious but this Petra cover does it. Play it a couple times and Schlitt's soaring vocals do the trick.

Petra - Battle Belongs To The Lord

This Journey tune also works, a good driving beat.

Good guitar sound. Glassy tones and good player. Song's more melancholy to me though. I need a faster beat I guess. Thanks for the link.

Off one of Queen's best albums "The Miracle". This is a great song and definitely fires me up. :lol:

Bugs the hell out of me that its been used in a commercial for I think Best Buy.

Positive Touch by Journey is a great last mile track when you go out jogging.

You're right, some of these tunes can be great for a workout playlist.

Anything off the two albums of "The Sounds" is good workout music. I loaded both albums in my shuffle and just let it go. Here's a couple:

Painted By Numbers - The Sounds
