Do you have Theme music?

I had a different idea for a post tonight, but then I read Kim's blog about how she is doing some de-cluttering and getting organized. She mentioned that doing this has helped her free some brain space somehow.

I can totally understand that.  I have a pretty hectic job, I am a Business Lead for an IT company which means I am responsible to talk to clients, bring in business, come up with pricing and project plans and then concurrently ensure it all gets done, delivered and to client satisfaction.  I deal with different clients that have totally different business functions.  So I have to switch gears a lot and jump from topic to topic. 

Some days it gets a bit overwhelming and I feel the weight of the world.  I feel like a firefighter that is trying to put out the biggest fires first and work my way around to the others that are smoking and ready to blow!  : )

And then it happens...the music starts playing in my head and I have plan.  To just give er!  That music has always been the theme song from Hawaii Five O!

Now this is kind of odd, because all I remember of the show was the opening song and the montage!  I don't know that I have actually ever seen an episode.  But this music has always been my go to music to just Give er~!

When it plays in my head, it helps me to focus and accomplish things.  Bang, Task Done.  Blam, meeting made.  Wham, problem solved.  Book em Tam O!  (ok i know that is cheezy but i need 150 words)

  2. Lol, that's awesome. I don't have a certain theme song; I just have songs randomly pop up and play occasionally. For instance today my mind must have been on some sort of Kenny Loggins kick because at some point footloose, highway to the dangerzone and I'm Alright all played at different times.
    Great post Tam-O! :)

  3. My "go go go!" song that pops into my head is "The Gray Race" by Bad Religion. No, it has nothing about anything really motivational in it. It's just really good.

  4. That's awesome. But is a little sad that I had to listen to the clip to know what song it is. Yes ... I know ... I am young.

  5. Hmmmm...not really sure.

    I remember having a discussion on a forum once about what your entrance music would be (think relief pitchers, pro fighters, etc.), so I guess I'll stick with that one. 'Fire it Up' by Black Label Society.
