Inspirational music

[flyfire]

What music inspires you, whether it is to fire yourself up to train, to live life more fully and presently, to explore again one's values, to reminisce in childhood stories of old, etc?

I can start by unashamedly putting this one down. I loved (and still love) Wu Xia tales etc, it was the wu xia genre that I think inspired my dad to live his fantasies through me and my brother hahaha! Well, to this day I am thankful, even though at the start it WAS all about him (sorry dad!)!

Your the best frm the karate kid sound track and eye of the tiger are the two that get me going

I love Excalibur (was my fight entrance song) and to calm at the end of the session, The Lonely Shepherd from Kill Bill.

Love the music Julian!

Not one I had in mind, but awesome none the less.

For me personally I like different music for different things. I can't really think of a specific piece, but fast heavy music is awesome for getting me motivated to get up and move. One that does come to mind is "Rollin'" by Limp Biskit.

There are other slow songs that encourage me to relax and take time. These are generally slow instrumentals. I hate to admit it, but I just love Kenny G.
