Do you listen to music while you clean?

I do!! If you do, why? I listen to music while I clean because it makes it seem to go buy faster. If I can do most anything to a beat, I enjoy it more. I don't really like to clean, but I know that it has to be done, so I put on some good music and get it rollin'. Tell me why you do/don't listen to music while cleaning. Thanks, Taz

Music is life, music is the world in motion!! Music is in everything, you just have to find it. I am a huge music lover as well, so music is basically a part of all the things that I do. Smile!!

Yes I must have music. I turn it up loud and jam. It makes cleaning fun and it makes it go faster. i have to listen to something upbeat and fun and that does not put me to sleep. Slow music makes me want to sit down.

Yeah, upbeat all the way!! Slow jams are for when you're trying to relax, not get something accomplished. I'm like you, if it's too slow, I'm bout to catch some zzzzzz's FOR REAL!!! lol!

yes, i definitely do. when i used to live at my parent's and no one would be home and i'd be cleaning i'd put a cd into my stereo &blast it. the windows in all the rooms would shake &everything, haha. but now i live with my boyfriend in a duplex, so i can't really do that anymore, haha. so i just use my ipod. &you're right, it does make it seem like it goes by a lot faster when you've got music to listen to.

Yes I listen to music when I clean most times. It helps it not seem so boreing and tedious. But I really like to have music on when I'm bakeing. I don't know why for that one besides it's what I do.

I always put on some music when I head into the kitchen. It just seems like you don't think about what you are doing as much with the tunes playing. You get into it and then it's all done. The best thing ever!!! Smile!

Yes I listen to music while I clean house ; it makes the time go by faster and also you're done before you know it.I'll put on anything that sounds good ; usually some of my tapes and just go to work. After all is done -- the music plays on for a while.

all the time, when i wash my clothes i always play my favorite CD and keep singing in the bathroom where i do my laundry. when i clean my room i sometimes go with the beat of the song or sometimes sing my heart out with the song. i love music, it's like half of my life. No Music No Life.

I seem to get far more housework done when I have the tunes cranked...I am more motivated, more organized, my energy level skyrockets LOL and housework doesnt seem nearly as boring or annoying when done to music LOL

I could never listen to music while I was doing homework back in the day because I would tend to get lost in the music instead of doing what I was supposed to do...lol. It's great for housework though. My family thinks I'm crazy, but that's ok too!! lol!!!!

I definitely like to have a little something playing while I am doing household work or work around the office cleaning. It usually gets me worked up, ready to get some energy and tackle the task at hand. There's always less to think about in terms of cleaning when the music is playing; the beat or the lyrics can get you lost in an activity and before you know it, you're already done cleaning.

I love to listen to music while I do any household chore, or any time that I am at home and without other entertainment (book/reading material, tv or guests). I normally listen to Disco/Dance music or old Motown hits, they're just so high enerfy and it almost gets fun. =D

I used to do that too but somehow lately I don't listen to the music very often. You are right the rhythm makes me work faster but just music makes my head hurt. Honestly, I don't know why but it's true.

Listen music while I'm cleaning it's a must. Makes me feel like no job at all. Maybe I prefer musics with high beat. Beside..I always like to listen music in any kind activity, even when I want to go to bed, of course with lower beat. It really helps me relax
