See thread title.

mc chris always gets me so fucking psyched, especially this new album. I listened to it twice tonight and I could go a few more times. The last song, "never give up," is just such an upbeat anthemic thing that just got me pumped.

If I wasn't on this mc bender right now, "Galvanize" by Chemical Brothers seldom fails to get me ready to go.

Mad Caps obv get me hypered up, Stance Punks as well get me going. There are a few random tracks too, just a couple of Maiden songs for example, and 'Inner Light' from the HnI soundtrack sends me mental. Though I think Fly High by the Mad Caps probably does more than anything else

Spiderbait do a better version. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=UtqjmuUaYXA) Not that I like them overall, they did this song very well though.

Edit: Actually, listen to Ram Jam's they are good in their own ways. Meh.

Black Betty is a classic. Also, a lot of music gets me pumped up if I'm in the right mood (drunk).

Galvanize, what? I guess it can pump you up. I'm more partial to songs like Loops of Fury and to a lesser degree Block Rocking Beats.

My pump up music are weird.

Black Eyed Peas - Pump It
Fat Boy Slim - Right Here, Right Now [Leeming Chong Mix]
Hell Bent - Fast Cars

To name a few.

Chanting my name... WELCOME ALL TO CURTAIN CALL AT THE OPERA!
RAGING VOICES IN MY MIND, RISE ABOVE THE ORCHESTRA... like a crescendo of gratitude!

Damn. One of my favorite Kamelot songs. Great choice.

One of my ultimate pump-up songs is Opeth - "Blackwater Park". The whole last 4 minutes or so make me want to explode.

anything I recognize from D-Minus Goes bananas or luna C (live in san francisco)immediately makes me happy, even if it's the source material, such as the first time I heard Walkin' in Memphis on the radio xD)

There's an app called Moody that lets you add comments to songs in itunes based on their moods going from left to right in happiness and bottom to top in intensity (in default)

A1 ("darkly intense")
Above and Beyond - Alone Tonight
Jimmy Eat World - Get it Faster
The Trews - Ishmael and Maggie
Jars of Clay - Flood
Hillsong United - Awesome God
AFi - (the hidden tracks after But Home is Nowhere)
System of a Down - Metro

A2 ("Generally sad or" basically a lot of minor chord songs I think):
Aqua - Lollipop
Billy Talent - This is How it Goes
Muse - Take a Bow

A3 ("generally happy")
The Black Mages - The Skies Above
Jack Off Jill - Love Song (cure cover)
The Killers - When You Were Young
Ayumi Hamasaki - Immature (power mix)
Jupiter Sunrise - Kaye
The ALFEE - Brave Love Galaxy Express 999

A4 ("holy snap happycore"):
Caramell Dansen
Brisk and Trixxy - Eyeopener

The B4 isn't quite as fast paced or intense as the A level but, they're pretty exciting songs for me still.
B4 ("not quite happycore"):
Aqua - Happy Boys and Girls
Aqua - Doctor Jones
Boston - Don't Look Back
B-Dash - Sector
Bad Boy Bill - Tetris Techno
Bang! Give me a Reason
Burritos to Go
Anne McGinty - Charterpoint
John Williams - Olympic Spirit

Some of these aren't really like, pumped up excited, but they all induce intense feelings. Obviously there are others because I haven't nearly gone through my entire playlist tagging them, but whatev xD

I used to use Mood Logic to help me set up playlists based on the genre, mood, tempo and time period of the music. But alas, they are no more and I moved my music to an external hard drive so I can't repopulate/update the app. :cry:

Kamelot can really get me pumped. :p

The Kamelot songs that get me the most pumped are "The Fourth Legacy", "Forever", "Karma", "Center of the Universe", "March of Mephisto", "When the Lights are Down", and the aforementioned "Ghost Opera". Though none of them are my favorite! My favorite Kamelot song is easily "The Haunting".
