Blir: First you start with:
Fine China: The Cells Divide (And I Might Ruin My Life)
this'll get you off to a mellowed body groovin' start with a little flavor.

followed by:
Interpol: Obstacle 1

then you go into:
the Editors: Munich AND Bullets

then you just tear it up with:
Franz Ferdinand: Take Me Out.

and you finish with:
M83: *

Your stereo will be so owned, it will reverberate with beats of after shock long after your engine is turned off and become cold (I'm assuming this is for your car). You'll be unable to wait to get back into your car to play this sequence again.

On the way home make sure you throw some of this into the mix:

VHS Or Beta: Forever
This is for groove factor.

And maybe even:
The Walkmen: The Rat

All great stuff. Thanks! I'll be applying some of these on my drive into NYC this morning, especially some of the powerpop - I guess that stuff by definition fits this purpose. Forgot about great stuff like Ned's Atomic Dustbin and latter day Cure. Plus with two M83 suggestions, I gotta go revisit that folder as well. I've also added the new Echo into my playlist - All Because of You Days is a really rousing song! Have I mentioned how good that new album is?? [;)]

The Dictators "Baby Let's Twist" would be a good wake up song.

It's 7:58 am on the east coast as I'm typing this and listening to U2's "Like a Song." It's got me up and going. [:D]

I almost hate to admit this because even my kids were on the floor laughing when I played it for them. Matt Bianco's Whose Side Are You On album was a morning anthem for my roommates and I for a couple of years in the mid-80s. My house mates were two sorority sisters and a gay dude who would all go nuts to "Get Out of Your Lazy Bed", "Half a Minute", "Matts Mood", and "Whose Side Are You On". I could either watch or get sucked in, and man was it fun getting sucked into this. It's for sure a guilty pleasure but irresistably upbeat. I'd recomment it to all but the most die-hard punkers.

anything by the dickies would do for an old school punkrock wake-up call... but it'd be more sensible to have STaRT! by the jam...
