Confession: I have an awesome MP3 player that doesn’t have ONE SONG on it. I’ve had it for a few years and all I really listen to is audiobooks. I’m really a nerd that pretends to be a cool guy :-)
The thing is, though, an audio book from my favorite author, no matter how well-read, can’t really get me pumped up before a high pressure moment. I have my MP3 player charged up and ready to download 10 tracks that are high energy, get ready for war type of songs. Help me with some good suggestions.

I like Misty Edwards and Rick Pino…some crazy different worship leaders, but also very strong and deep.
Anything from P.O.D.
Burn for You by Toby Mac
OK, this is totally different but it has lots of energy: Firebird by Stravinsky. No words, not Christian, just classical music.
Above Every Other Name by Justin Rizzo is absolutely amazing. Makes me want to jump up and down EVERY TIME.
Talib Kweli – "Move Somethin'" (perhaps the bleeped version? heh)
Drown in the Now by Crystal Method and Matisyahu. Plus it's free at drowninthenow.com. Should get you amped sufficiently.
I concur w/ the brother from earlier. Dre Murray's "My Lane"=sick!!!!!

Hi, this is Pablo from Spain. I just found your blog by luck so reading something here and there I think I know this can be very interesting for you and anybody willing to fill their live with even some more love.
I recommend you then the artist "Nneka", and not only one song, but the hole "To and Fro" 3CDs recopilatory in which you could really find some of the knowledge this fragile looking but strong girl has to share. An updated point of view in your world of today, our society,a true and honest testimony, through the eyes of a nigerian-german joung woman. This is not music, it's live itself. Check it out yo!!!
Hope you enjoy.
