OT pump up music
Hey fellow bloggers. On a some what slow day asside the MBB game i thought id ask you guys a favor. I want to know what you guys are listen to to get pumped up for a big game, workout etc. I'm putting together a video about last football season and im looking for some awsome audio to add to it. Anything works.

Flogging Molly (Black Friday Rule, Devil's Dance Floor) and Young Dubliners (Rocky Road to Dubline, Follow Me up to Carlow) make regular appearances for me. Also, "Shot Through the Heart and You're to Blame" is a great way to get psyched. And over "The Victors" is always the last thing I play before heading out.

I like Flogging Molly. "Drunken Lullabies" is another good one by them, it has a fast beat that pumps me up.
February 13th, 2012 at 12:22 PM ^
Did somebody say get psyched?
February 12th, 2012 at 10:17 PM ^
Fix your grammer/spelling and repost before you get ripped to shreds.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:25 PM ^
Minor!
February 12th, 2012 at 10:25 PM ^
Get the fuck off my blog.

hates this song.... our 5 star Defensive tackle Ondre Pipkins seems to enjoy it.
February 13th, 2012 at 12:21 AM ^
I don't get why so many on the blog hate it. Its not like it should take the place of The Victors, but it isn't something to be embarrassed about.
February 13th, 2012 at 2:27 AM ^
I don't think we are listening to the same song. It is really bad.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:18 PM ^
"All These Things That I've Done" - The Killers. It really gets me in the zone.
Also, "Undead" by Hollywood Undead really gets the juices flowing, but that one might be a bit explicit for a hype.

Scanning the scene
in the city tonight
You’re looking for blue
to start up a fight
There’s a mental defect
in your brains
But it is nothing new
we know it drives you insane
RUNNING!
Shoelace is
READING!
Defensive ends
RUSHING!
One thousand yards
PASSING!
Armpunt time
HEMING!
way is there
LEAPING!
Bailed us out

I listen to one song, and one song only: Seven Nation Army
February 12th, 2012 at 10:38 PM ^
"Don't Stop" by Innerpartysystem is pretty hype-y.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
Roy Jones Jr. - Cant Be Touched
February 12th, 2012 at 11:24 PM ^
Wow does Roy Jones Jr go hard. Dude was a beast.
February 13th, 2012 at 2:48 AM ^
that's the funnest boxing highlights I've ever seen - dude was nasty with so much attitude. I lost $400 when I bet my heart that AA's James Toney would beat him.

February 12th, 2012 at 10:20 PM ^
In no particular order, my playlist includes:
Uprising- Muse
Power- Kanye West
Forever- Drake
'Til I Collapse + Won't Back Down- Eminem
Hell's Bells- AC/DC
All of the Lights- A lot of people
For the Ohio football game, I include Seven Swans by Sufjan Stevens (from Brian's 11 Swans post)
Get Up With the Sickness- DJDoYou (Mash-up song)

I have a lot more and it changes but those are a few.
February 12th, 2012 at 11:07 PM ^
Like the Muse, my personal fav is Hysteria though. Great bass line.
Also love almost anything Rise Against for pump up music.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:21 PM ^
All I want by A Day to remember would be great especially with last season. give it a listen and tell me that it doesn't scream 2011 season.
February 13th, 2012 at 12:37 PM ^
All you need is Rick Astley and you'd have the perfect playlist.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:21 PM ^
Recently I've been thinking that it would be cool to pair up some defensive highlights with Face to the Floor by Chevelle.
February 13th, 2012 at 11:47 AM ^
Doing taxes while listening to the album.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:21 PM ^
thanks this really helps alot
February 12th, 2012 at 10:22 PM ^
Your hand in mine - by Explosions in the sky.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
Im shipping up to boston by dropkick murphy's
February 12th, 2012 at 10:25 PM ^
The I Love you Denard song from the other thread will now be my pump up music. It will get me through anything.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:28 PM ^
I don't necessarily choose to listen to it, but "I Burn" by Toadies seems to come up in my playlist just as I'm wanting to die (usually the 3 minute mark in my run...) and pushes me past the side-ache.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:43 PM ^
No "Possum Kingdom"??? C'mon!
February 13th, 2012 at 2:09 PM ^
I Burn is amazing live.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:29 PM ^
I Put On by Young Jeezy and Can't Be Touched by Roy Jones Jr. Always got me hyped for big games.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:29 PM ^
Two bangin songs:
Ludacris- last of a dying breed
Cyhi da prynce- top of the world
February 12th, 2012 at 10:29 PM ^
Your Touch- The Black Keys
February 13th, 2012 at 2:20 AM ^
Other good pump up songs from the Black Keys are I Got Mine and Everlasting Light. Psychotic Girl is pretty good too.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:33 PM ^
Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff!!!!
February 12th, 2012 at 10:30 PM ^
Not exactly your stereotypical pump up song, but it works for me:
February 12th, 2012 at 10:31 PM ^
Before games I would listen to a lot of pump up music a few hours or so before the game until about 20 minutes before the coach's speech and then I would switch to something more slow-paced to get me focused. Johnny Cash, Tchaikovsky, Frank Sinatra, stuff like that. I'm not someone who can go into a game yelling and pounding my chest like a gorilla, I like to be calm and focused.
At the gym its the same thing. I'd rather listen to Mozart than Metallica. Just a focus thing.
February 12th, 2012 at 10:32 PM ^
also, its a final countdown by Europe gets me going
February 12th, 2012 at 10:32 PM ^
You know, the stuff you see in commercials for movies! These are my current favorites, in rough order of priority by artist:
Mark Petrie - Richat, Virtuous
Chris Haigh - Ascend to Power, Epic Courage
Future World Music - Anthem of Courage, Gothic Messiah, Heart of Fury
Brand X Music - Bring the Pain, Extinction, Fearless, Heretic, Painkiller
Celldweller - Wings of Icarus
Two Steps from Hell - Heart of Courage, Protectors of the Earth
February 12th, 2012 at 10:35 PM ^
Where else will you get:
Dead I am the life, dig into the skin
Knuckle crack the bone, 21 to win
February 12th, 2012 at 10:36 PM ^
Two Steps From Hell -- Protectors of the Earth
Bonus Michigan-Ohio hype video w/PotE:

You change your name? Did I miss something?
February 13th, 2012 at 2:13 AM ^
I'm using my real name to trick people into thinking I'm one of the cool kids.
