Cleaning songs

BravoFan · 04-27-2003, 04:19 PM

No, not songs about cleaning.

But rather what are good songs to listen to while you are cleaning? I think I need to add some new ones.

I actually don't even mind cleaning the house when I'm by myself and can crank up the stereo to those songs that make you want to dance. I think dancing is key to cleaning the house. It makes it fun, and it burns some extra calories too!

So....any suggestions?

In my current rotation I have:
Dancing Queen
Call Me
One Way, or the Other
I Will Survive

Those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.

If you have hardwood floors, I suggest flamenco.

Ok, call me crazy--this is NOT the kind of music I usually like, but...when I'm cleaning, I like to put on old country. Like Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Dwight Yoakam...really twangity twang stuff. Oh, and The Knitters...love them.

Or, if I'm not in a country mood, I put on Violent Femmes.

I HAVE to listen to songs when i'm cleaning; whether it's the radio or a CD. The songs should be lively & upbeat.

I HAVE to listen to music when I'm cleaning. Staind gets me in a crazy hyper mood
I listen to "Break The Cycle" by them. Plus, I like every song on the cd (only one I think I like every song)
Everything is sparkling by the time the cd ends

OH
Don't throw things at me....

I LOVE the cd from the movie 10 things I hate about you.

very pick me up music (most of it)

Ok silly and very old, but for some reason that song from Foot loose,, and the other one from that Lets hear for the boy always jazzes me up when I am cleaning...

Something loud, upbeat that I can sing a long too... I love dancing around & singing out loud when I clean ... lol.

Fast 50s-60s rock'n roll like Lucky Lips, Jailhouse Rock, La Bamba, Reet Petite, Rockin' Robin, Splish Splash .... etc ... those are GREAT to clean to!!! :-)

Brian Setzer ... almost anything by him (not "Sleepwalk" though.. lol)

Carlene Carter: Every Little Thing
Actually I eventually put together a cd with all her fast paced songs & cleaned to that one.
