    I've listened to the Go! Team's "Huddle Formation" every morning before going into exams. I wouldn't be half as relaxed if it wasn't for that song. Check it out: http://youtube.com/watch?v=4ZZrjiVO688 (click on watch in high quality, it makes the audio better too)

    Go! Team, nice one. Always gets me pumped up, we used to play them before big GAA matches :cool:

    Every morning I'm blasting my Pogues away, big musical carcrash that it is.

    I have a Chillout moods CD in my car CD player since last wednesday, that cranked up and drive nice and calmly as opposed to most young lads who tear around.

    Nothing can get me motivated.
    Once I start with the music, I can't stop listening to it...

    Berlioz and Mozart and Deane...

    Nah, not really.

    I don't have an mp3 player so my studying is done in sombre silence. I like a bit of the ole Planxty or Christy Moore to relax to afterwards... Jaysus what an old lady am I. Can't beat the ole "Come by the Hills" though.

    And my friend's band just released their album so I've been listening to it loads. So damn catchy. -> Plug!
