When I want some good ole foot stopping music I always look towards Creedance Clearwater Revival and Tina Turner.

I'm not much help either because I like old country. Just wanted to wish you a great recovery.....and you WILL recover!

Any Lynard Skynyrd, especially for the mad angry part. Also the sound track from MamaMia. I just went to se Jersey Boys, any of the 4 Seasons to sing along with.

I am sorry you have to go through this, but we will be here for support.

I also like country but most of the songs I can think of are kind of sad but one of my faves is called "I am proud to be your man" can't remember by who though

hope this helps and ((((((hugs)))))))

The first song that came to mind was Jump by the Pointer Sisters- and I'm So Excited- also Abba, as others have mentioned.
There is so much stuff on Itunes- do you use it?? I have Bruce Springsteen & the E St band Live in Barcelona- knocks my socks off every time I watch it. Wow, the energy!!!!! I cannot just "listen" and get anything done b/c I'm glued to the TV and making all kinds of noise :D :D :D Best concert I've ever seen on DVD without a doubt.
Big hugs, sweetie- sending prayers your way :)

lol have to add a couple important 1 to me :D

Ride On - AC/DC
Pink Floyd
lol for some reason a few by Elton John

and when i get to the point of anger i dont like... oddly enough Coming Undone - Korn lol

the anger happens :D Music helps :D

No these don't all reflect my age (I'm 47).
The Eagles (I love it all)
America
Bon Jovi (anything really)
Aeorosmith
Beach Boys (always seem upbeat)
Mamma's and Papa's
Bread
Poco
England Dan and John Ford Coley
Seals and Croft
Simon and Garfunkel (for days that you need the retro)
Creed (I know my kids hate that I liked them but they are great when you really need loud)
Pachabel's Canon in D (very soothing)


I could run my I-touch for the headbanging, keep-my-butt-moving list that I listen to at the gym but really don't register who they all are if you really want. I have a feeling you are going to get a lot of suggestions. I've found music is pretty personal.

I wish you didn't have to deal with this.
