What Moodies lp or song do you like to get yourself rev'd up?

wash windows on a summer weekend. Being on summer vacation we objected
so she struck up a bargain: she'd let us play our music if we'd do it
(no classical stuff which is all she listens to). We began with OTTOAD
and moved from there to EGBDF and then TOCCC. (She even liked that one)
But my brother wanted OTTOAD to get us MOVING! it worked! I often listen
to "lovely to see you" for motivation but found the only song that got
me out of being scared stiff on my first date (after divorce) was
TOSOL.(no, not the lyrics, the screaming guitar solo!!!)
BTW we finished the house and windows in two days, VROOM!

chores at the same time. It distracts me...especially if the music really
rocks!
If I were sweeping a floor and listening to TOSOL, I'd stop sweeping and
probably end up dancing with the broom!!

I'm reminded I'll have to get the resident Slayer fan to spare some
skateboarding energy for a little spring cleaning. Wish me luck.
I guess if I had to get really pumped up to get something done in
a hurry, ISOTLC might get me going but I'd probably mellow out
just when The Word/Om starts. Maybe the Moodies should team
up with Jane Fonda to produce an exercise album some day.
When I'm reading or writing something DOFP, TOCCC and SS are
nice albums to have on.

tonight. Pictures from the train. Even one of the controls. :)
I gotta tell you my song.....maybe your Slayer fan can help you
listen.....It was.... In A Little While by U2..... I could even hear the
dude singing the whistle. It was fun. And thank you.
Cia thanks for the suggestion of some good cleaning music I'll give it a
try. I'm still painting........gone from Rainbows to a Painter Passing Thru
and still not done. It may be a long spring but I'm making progress.
VAROOM..hummmm......I could use some of that.
What I really need is a new song to wake up to. This past week it's been
"In the Name Of Love"....I don't make it past the Edge before the ole alarm
goes off. Any suggestions for a good Moody song to wake up too.
Think TOSOL will work ...maybe so...

My mother is very energetic and she helped! There were 4 of us at work plus
her.

way of getting you to do what she wants in her kind southern way)
If we flagged she would suggest another motivating lp.
Maybe I should recall those times!

whose house needs a good spring (or is that several springs) cleaning

Cia, that's funny you wrote that. I had the same dilemma a few years ago. I
had to do the windows and I HATE doing them, especially since I have these
stupid old- fashioned windows where each part of a window is divided into eight
squares with wood permanently attached. You actually get splinters doing them,
so I wanted a really good song to put on repeat to get going since I do them
once a year. This isn't strictly a Moody song, but "Saved by the Music" really
gets you going :)! After I took it off repeat, "I Dreamed Last Night" slows you
down :), but I don't mind listening to it :). Two other good ones are "Here
Comes the Weekend" and "Sitting at the Wheel". I can't do an album(cd) I have
to put five on(as many as the cd player holds) and find the fast ones :). My
favorite is still SBTM, that really helped me that day, and I use it to clean
the bathrooms also :).

Glad to hear it. Good thing it was a train and not a submarine.

You're welcome! Well, the resident Slayer fan doesn't seem to
like U2 that much. I got him a U2 compilation CD a few years
ago but he never played it very much so he probably wouldn't
be much help.

Throw on the Blue Jays CD. What better way to wake up than with
the song This Morning.
>Think TOSOL will work ...maybe so...
Better yet, how about Dawning Is The Day from AQOB. That's a nice
way to get the creative juices flowing again when you pick up the old
paintbrush. (g)

Great minds think alike! RMSS is always a great pick-me-up tune. Play
me the song and give me a coffee and we're off to the races.

You're lucky the mastermind of this great plan helped out. Always nice
to have a few brothers around. (g)

on some TOCCC.......to paint by...think I'll make it past Floating or
Watching and Waiting? That album is a bit magical in itself. Might even
end up with some hieroglyphics on the old cave wall around here. Wish me
luck. I may need some balance after this one.

I don't know what you're painting. Living room wall maybe?
It could end up looking similar to TOCCC's album cover so
be careful. I'm not sure if those brown colours are hip with
the home decorating crowd these days.

Not to get off subject, but the last time I painted the
interior of my little house, I got books-on-tape from the Library.
The music would have made me fling paint all over.

Ty, that's what gets the work done faster! The 1st one I use
to get in the movin' mood is Say It With Love.

last summer: my dh, 11 yo, 9 yo and not-yet 4 yo. 14 hours plus stuck around NYC
and then Boston for 45 min each. The next long haul we made without dh (that's
dear husband) I got several books on tape and even I enjoyed the drive!!! all 9
hr..
Ty, I know it so well, I feel it as I do my work. I annoy my kids with
punctuating special sounds with gestures! try it. My hands work while my head
gets into the tunes.

Now THAT music slows me down...gotta get a handkerchief!

ya know I was in Beijing when my room's light burned out. they did that
with all the other people on my floor raising their hands up to the
fixture.....
I guess I should switch to wine and lay off the filtered water.
