Do you like to listen to music while you are cleaning? I find that if I blast music while I am cleaning that it goes by faster. I'm looking for some new music to keep me cleaning.. Do you have a particular playlist or CD you like to listen to while you are cleaning? What is it?

Well it depends when im cleaning I usually watch something thats on tv but if im not in a room with a tv then I usually listen to my zune player or a cd if I can find one I just find it more fun to listen to music or watch tv when im cleaning deffintley makes the task a lot more enjoyable to do becase it can be a boring job to do lol.

Yes I do and I love every bit of what I'm doing if I played my favorite playlist...These are my choice of songs.If I play these, I tend to forget the time and how tiring the work is..

Yeah i do when no one else is around.. I normally blast my music cause than it gets me in the swing of things.. If i do do my cleaning when people are around they usually shut it off on me.. They must not like what i listen too, normally though it's R&B or country.. I am really not into like heavy metal or anything in that sort.

How do you stay motivated when you aren't listening to music while cleaning?

yes I definitely do! I like to sing along as i clean too. sometimes I listen to the radio so it seems like there's someone else there talking to me as well. I like mandarin music, so usually I'll pop in a CD of my favourite mandarin artiste, Stephanie Sun and sing along as i clean the dishes or do the laundry hanging-up.

I like listening to music when I clean. I have my cds, probably about 500 copied on my computer library, and I put them on random, and let it go. I like rock, pop, heavy metal, and country, so I have a wide variety of music to work to. I do think that 70's and 80's music is really good to work by. More energetic music, maybe, how about Bee Gees disco music? Tht'll give ya a cleaning boost.

I listen to lots of differnt kinds of music too. Disco does NOT happen to be one of them. I told the DJ at my wedding that if he played disco he would not be paid.

I like to listen to music when I do household chores not only cleaning because it helps me do things without being that time conscious and I also work faster and enjoying to do chores. I usually listen to rock or those fast music because I've read that fast musics initiates our body and mind to work faster.

Hillsong christian music, I don't know if you are familiar with it, but it really makes me jump up and dance and makes me work faster.

Yeah i like to listen to some music while cleaning my room which make it less boring and less tiring. I mostly listen to Indian songs and im sure if i tell you my playlist it wont make any sense to you so let forget about it.

Indian like India or Indian like Cherokee? What makes you assume I wouldn't like it?

My taste in music is wide from praise and worship to gospel hip hop. As long as it is gospel and good singers I have not problem. I listen to MArtha Minnizi, Mary Mary, Darlene Zcetsch, Donnie McClurkin and some of the names I cant remember. I love to praise GOd so when the music starts I even use my broom as my mike and start singing my daughter sits and watches and laughs at me. She says I am crazy but music does play an intimate part with me in my household chores.
