*SOME QUESTIONS AND SOME ANSWERS: What's a power song? It's a song that motivates you and gives you that extra push. But what makes a a power song a power song? Well, that depends. Sure, I have several tunes that always cheer me up when running. The most common perception, and in most cases, is that it has to be lively, upbeat and "fast". But power songs come in different forms and shapes. I take into account two things that go hand in hand. Firstly, I don't even have the option to bring the power song when I need it. That's why my running playlist is always on shuffle. Secondly, I am made of moments. Sometimes, instead of liveliness, I need something to go long and steady and when that happens I need a "mellow" one to give me momentum, one that could make me soar. Peaks, highs and lows, on a song are important to me as well, but I will leave that topic for some other time.
Ultimately, it all comes down to tastes and preferences the good thing is that there is always a "skip song" button.
And remember... If you liked it, buy it...
