What would you listen to?
Many of the Olympic athletes are seen wearing ipod’s. What do you think they are listening to previous to their events?
Adam van Koeverden likes to listen to Broken Social Scene
Micheal Phelps enjoys a little hip hop before he launches
Karen Cockburn seems to dig Kanye West
What would you listen to, name your ‘event’ and the song that you would listen to immediately before your performance…..
I’d listen to Saliva or Disturbed and my event would be….some sort of short sprint run….and you?
Use the word ‘medals’ for some extra Jack Nation points.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Sam,
For me it would be Springsteen’s Thunder Road.
That’s my all time favorite tune.
Cheers,

Sam,

I think I might also listen to Disturbed, especially their album, The Sickness. Or maybe Nirvana’s Greatest Hits, or some tunes from AC/DC.

My event would definately be the 100m and I would listen to Animals by Nickelback, or anthing sufficiently raunchy by them…..

I’d listen to Welcome To The Jungle by GNR or Sabotage by the Beastie Boys. My event would be Men’s Ice Hockey!!!!!!!

Fat Bottom Girls, I gotta say as a girl with a little junk in my trunk, it sure gets my foot tapping and my booty shakin’!

Because of ROCKY and his come from behind win in his movie, “Survivor” would definitely remind me of the movie and to strive for the best I could be!! There’s also “Maniac” from the movie Flashdance as it’s SO upbeat and fast that I tend to want to move as fast as the song. I also have different tunes I like too, but the two I mentioned are most likely to motivate me.

Hi Sam
Of course, I would listen to Jack FM before any event.
If they had a pint drinking event, count me in.
Have a great weekend.

I would problably listen to “rebell yell” by billy idol and then the national anthem for our beloved country CANADA to give me the extra boost.

My event would definately be channel surfing… LOL anything physical would probably kill me (computer techie)….. and I agree with AC/DC and also Zeppelin….

I’ve been listening to this Japanese hard rock band from the 80’s called Loudness and their song “Crazy Nights”. It has one of the coolest opening riffs but would fit doing a BMX race or sprint.
That or “Number of the Beast” another really cool opening riff that everytime I hear I get goosebumps. Song’s like that really get you jacked!
