Making you swagger soundtrack

Our good friend, author, entrepreneur and motivational speaker Marlin Page posted a GREAT VLOG on her Facebook page asking her fans what is your swagger music? You know that song or songs that get you up...get you motivated...get you going?



This got me thinking about my swagger soundtrack because there are a few "go to" songs that I listen to on a regular basis when I need to get things going...rev up that mojo.  I'll post my "swagger soundtrack" in a later post. But in the meantime, share with me those songs that you play when you need a jump start in your day?
