I've recently been inspired by the How to Train Your Dragon soundtrack. It's quite epic, and helps me feel heroic while animating... kinda.

"Whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." - 1 Corinthians 10:31b

Been listening to some Modern Baseball (MOBO) lately. Especially one of their new songs, The Waterboy Returns

I've been hitting the good ole The White Stripes recently, and have been banging Tower Of Power in my system, too. Two songs I recommend from each would be:
White Stripes
1. The Denial Twist
2. Fell in Love With a Girl (This is a really cool stop-mo music video).
Tower of Power
1. What Is Hip
2. Diggin' On James Brown

I picked up this CD late last year, and didn't really have a chance to listen to it until recently. And, boy did I wish I'd listened to it sooner! It's very inspiring to me, and, I've been listening to it non-stop while I've been scripting. It's a pretty fun and more "pop" sounding album than Phil Collins's usual fare.

If you like The Beatles, pop ballads, or Phil Collins, then I suggest you check it out. Especially the tracks Wear My Hat, Just Another Story, and It's In Your Eyes - specifically the latter if you, like me, really, really, enjoy The Beatles. Those three tracks show the diversity in subject of the songs pretty well.

If you don't like those three, you probably won't like the album. If you do, I'd suggest giving it a listen. Really great to listen to late at night, especially.

Phil Collins is nice to animate to.

loop this one and go to work!  stellar lead synth!

BUMP

I figured it'd be nice to revive this thread. This album by Eddie Vedder is a personal favorite of mine. Its lyrics are very deep and stirring, making it good to listen to while animating (or anything else).

Into the Wild playlist

That's one that gets me hyped too, as well as 90% of the stuff made by TheFatRat, which is mostly lyric-free, and as Dyland kind of mentioned by listening to music that is low on that, it stops you writing it down or breaking into song

Having said this, there are quite a few songs that really get me going:

Human - Rag 'n' Bone Man
The Nights - Avicii
Thank You - MKTO
Stole the Show - Kygo
Counting Stars - OneRepublic
Glory - John Legend
Found My Place - Oh, Hush!

I've also made a private playlist on Spotify which includes this (I've been told it is quite nerdy, but I'll leave that for you to decide )

Rey's Theme
March of the Resistance
Imperial March
The Droid Invasion
Your Father Would Be Proud (from Star Wars Rogue One, in case you didn't realise)
Star Wars Cantina Remix
LOTR Dubstep Remix
Harry Potter Remix
Doctor Who Remix
