Irie! Well, Im no boxer. But if I were, then I think some jungle would pump me up!! UK Apachi, Topcat , Tenorfly etc....
Hehe! Wow! Thats some kickstart!!

[norseman]

Funkyfred-if it was Jungle then it would have to be "6 million ways to die" or "Fire"///Ragga "Boom Bye Bye".But I cant think of a Roots track as it would only make me wanna shake his hand and say "Lets go down Pub,sink a couple,and talk about it"

Any version of:

"You Just Can't Conquer Natty Dreadlocks"

Johnnie Clarke does a great version on his Reggae Rebel LP:

entitled 'Conquer Me'

And there's brilliant a version on Dr A's monster 'Best Dressed Chicken' LP:

This one fires me up everytime.

And I always find Marley's 'Get Up Stand Up' very motivational too.

I used to box, and everytime I would enter the ring, I would listen two tunes before it, always those same two tunes in same order.

First, I would listen to "Taking Over" - a Sizzla tune. Then I'd listen to Capleton's "Final Assassin".

These two tunes had an amazing effect to I - every single time. A rush of both will & power. Those songs really gave me the ideal mindset for boxing fights...

Warrior style!

I forgot to mention:

Mind Yu Dis by Gregory Isaacs - I could take on the world while listening to that track!

[aabey]

i used to listen to cocoa tea - young lover to awake more vigorously, great tune!!

Once I read about a research that concluded that listening to the music of your choice before doing something important makes you improve your performance (for example, a test).

By the way "harvest time" by Don Carlos always lift me up, makes me think of a better world, really energizes me. Also "jesus selassie i keepeth my soul" and "I'm a levi" by Ijahman transport me to a higher dimension

FE TRUE

Rasta!

[Rob Strictly-Rockers]

Yes that was awesome. Just checking though wasn't Bad Boy/Dangerous by Courtney Melody?

Cheers
