People have already named several of my go-to tunes (Uprising & All of These Things I've done) but I can scrape up a few more, generally older stuff you may have forgotten about. Can I say Erasure? You may have to be a girl for that to work. Not sure. Same with Prince.
Don't Change by INXS
Lust for Life by Iggy pop (unless the cruise commercials ruined it for all)
London Calling by the Clash
The Underdog by Spoon
Sly by The Cat Empire
Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger
American Girl by Tom Petty
Beware of the Boys by Punjabi MC
Boys of Summer by the Ataris
Here it Goes Again by OK Go
Ready to Go by Republica

If anything could ruin "Lust for Life," it would be Jim Rome, but even he couldn't do it. When you listen to the song, it just seperates itself from all the commercial shit and you can't help but enjoy it.
February 13th, 2012 at 12:05 AM ^
I regret to say that I missed the "Hype video" part of your post and instead thought you were just looking for pump-me-up kind of music. So some of these suggestions are ridiculous in retrospect. Sorry 'bout that.

February 13th, 2012 at 11:44 AM ^

Waka Flocka, hahaha, that dude is borderline retarded.
February 13th, 2012 at 12:45 PM ^
He might not be intelligent in any sense of the word, but the man can get amped up when he's spittin. His verse in MGK's "Wild Boy" is pretty much him screaming at the top of his lungs. He wouldn't be in the top 1,000,000,000 people I would recommend if you needed help with something, but he's in the top 10 when I need to get pumped up.
February 13th, 2012 at 10:05 AM ^
Anything Five Finger Death Punch, Children of Bodom before the game. At the last possible second Waylon Jennings
Meet the Monster!
February 13th, 2012 at 10:20 AM ^
Anything uptempo by James Brown. "The Big Payback" got repeated play before last year's Ohio game.
"Tough It Out" by Webb Wilder.
"The Clampdown" by the Clash.
And many more, while fervently hoping to never, ever, ever hear most of the generic drivel played at the stadium during the games. Why can't we come up with OUR OWN songs, and stop copying everyone else? Fergodsakes, put Journey and Neil Diamond out to pasture.
February 13th, 2012 at 11:35 AM ^

Heart of a Champion by Nelly

SOULFLY similarly has some very motivational tunes like bring it and jump the **** up,again dependent on which direction you want to go with this...

In my football playing days, i would listen to Shut 'Em Down by LL Cool J and Faint by Linkin Park in the locker room before the game.
Now days I always try to listen to Blue and Yellow (Black and Yellow Remix) by P.L. at least once on gamedays. Other than that, a little quality dubstep (Mt. Eden and/or Skrillex will do) is all it takes to get the juices flowing.
February 13th, 2012 at 1:41 PM ^
one of the best pump songs, imo
February 13th, 2012 at 2:00 PM ^
Break Science - Victory
