Alternately, the best music to move your stuff out of your house because you are moving?

My favorites:

Wilco - AM
Books - Thought for Food

David Ackles - Waiting For the Moving Van

(I wish I had the words to hand, because I'd reduce you all to blubbering tear-sodden wrecks with 'em)

the wedding present - bizarro

"Bizarro" has become my main 'mowing the lawn' soundtrack, it's suitably loud through headphones to drown out the mower, and exactly the right length to get hte front and back garden done.

a bit on the nose perhaps, but I often clean to Around the House by Herbert.

i don't care what you listen to, just clean the f'n house already.

― Dean Gulberry (deangulberry), Friday, 31 October 2003 23:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Salsa music, especially if you want to get the place cleaned quickly.

Dean OTM. How can you live like this? Christ, did a cow shit in here?

Boccherini's "Fandango"

Felcher OTM

me and my girlfriend once cleaned the house after a party while listening to low's long division. i think we did a decent job, so that can be my suggestion...

i remember my mom playing queen's greatest hits whenever we cleaned.

Moving:

"Moving Day" by the Holy Modal Rounders

― bflaska, Saturday, 1 November 2003 03:49 (twenty-two years ago)

The theme from "The Jeffersons".

'whip it' (swiffer jet remix)

― geeta (geeta), Saturday, 1 November 2003 08:28 (twenty-two years ago)

For me, it's gotta be something that inspires discipline (ooh err!) and stealth. So, like Slayer or Laibach or something.

Rocket From The Tombs
Captain Beefheart

the misfits. perfect for almost every occasion.

― lauren (laurenp), Sunday, 2 November 2003 16:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Currently the best music to do anything at all to is Response by Alexander Kowalski. Kudos to Siegbran.

So true!

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 2 November 2003 16:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell, no joke.

― Elyn (elynbeth), Sunday, 2 November 2003 16:57 (twenty-two years ago)

actually, i'll change that to "perfect for every occasion" because i just tried to think of a situation in which i wouldn't want to hear the misfits. couldn't come up with anything.

― lauren (laurenp), Sunday, 2 November 2003 16:58 (twenty-two years ago)

I had great fun listening to the junior senior album last time I cleaned. The dancier the better. Pet Shop Boys are also a cleaning fave. It used to be old Metallica or Slayer but those for some reason lost their effectiveness.

a situation in which i wouldn't want to hear the misfits.

- While giving birth?
- While trying to sleep?
- Whilst trying to retrieve an errant contact lens from a shag carpet?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 2 November 2003 17:02 (twenty-two years ago)

the misfits would probably get me all pumped to find that contact or deliver that baby. sleep... okay, maybe not.

― lauren (laurenp), Sunday, 2 November 2003 17:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I took at my house yesterday with some chemicals & towels & a vacuum and a five-disc changer loaded with Talking Heads, Devo, and Gang of Four. My house is CLEAN.
