LOUD is GOOD and NECESSARY

Several months ago I realized that my usual playlists on Spotify were fulfilling a need I had. After noodling around various playlists and artists, I finally realized I was drawn to songs with great drums and themes of revolution in particular. Of course, some just ended up being great dance tunes too.
Anyhoo, I put my playlist together, dubbed it LOUD, and I swear it saved my sanity.
Artists featured, in no particular order of preference:
John Newman
Adam Lambert
Mika
Paloma Faith
Bush
Living Colour
Kaiser Chiefs
Bressie
The Waterboys
Duffy
Robbie Williams
Imagine Dragons
Shinedown
American Authors
Bastille
Thirty Seconds to Mars
The Fray
and more....
What do you listen to when you need to give yourself a boost?

It depends on what I am in the mood for, last night I was thinking about ABBA.

I usually go for the bluegrass music when I need a boost. I have a number of bluegrass songs on my "exercise" playlist on my iPod, and it's quite a workout keeping up with the pace of the songs!

I watch TV shows when I am in the mood to listen to something. We have to radio or stereo in our house.

Adam Lambert has a wonderful voice. He was my favorite singer on American Idol. But mostly I listen to light jazz. Some good tunes from France are also good to give me a boost.
