That is highly subjective and depends entirely on the situation and my frame of mind. While not my favorites, I really like the following song by The Crystal Method. I usually listen to this song while rolling through work campus every so slowly in the M5, or I blast TCM in the system at home while preparing to do any number of things.

I'll be back to post links for mine but I think Probert is like me. If I am running on a treadmill or excercising it's a beat, rhtym or good sampling with effective hooks that will get me going. For the moment anything remixed by Bimbo Jones works for me. I rarely like songs just because the lyrics are good, I'd read poetry if I was so taken by lyrical content.
Inspirational Song - Pennywise - Bro Hymn http://youtube.com/watch?v=0gbVgHA4R0o Favorite song - Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here ( going to be played at my funeral ) http://youtube.com/watch?v=q1moiym6-Nk
I personally don't see the point in the "musicals" (no words just "beats" or whatever and to me they aren't songs, songs have words and music...
"Deep Enough" (Remix) - Live Its basically a song about losing a girl then seeing her out with a total douchebag. And he is saying, essentially, can he do it for you like I did. Listened to it a lot a few years back during a bad breakup.

They're a sick ass band. Awesome vocal , drums and guitar.
....yeah -- i agree, people are basically getting sick of the same old rock/hip-hop/r&b bullsh*t. .... and there is just this big upsurge from a new style coming out of Europe -- best place i've found it so far is a compilation series called 'euro club hits' on itunes -- or check this link: http://www.futurelectrohouse.com/tracks
