What are your Favourite Housework Album/ Songs?

I am currently tidying my bedroom (I sound like a teenager), and ironing to a rather awesome Spotify playlist. I know all the words to the songs and I am belting them out.

When hoovering I do like putting on a bit of Celine Dion/ Barbara Stresisand/ Cher so I can sing to my hearts content knowing that the hoover it drowning out my voice.

When you are on a cleaning mission what do you like to put on?

None of the above for me, but then I have a wife for such trivial tasks.

Only joking of course, but whenever I have the urge to do housework then I stream the Artic Monkey's A.M Album of late.

This is a great track.

50's music

Being a slovenly housekeeper, I'll let the place get really trashed, then I'll go on a marathon cleaning session.
I always crank up the music! With Bowie, I breeze right through it.

Any specfics? Or are you NonSpecific?

I am loving this 50s love song at the moment, They don't write them like this anymore...



and this Same Cooke classic..




If you want to start using Spotify, other streaming services are available, there is playlist called 'All out 50s' and it is a great list of tracks.

I do housework to the 'sound of silence'.
I want to be able to hear myself mutter under my breath about how my kids do not pick up after themselves.

Tool's Aenima album is one of my favorite go too's when I'm busy working or doing something.

Soothing vocals paired with uber melodic guitar riffs makes for the best background music.

Here's my favorite housework album, no need to sing along but I dance a little when no one's around.

Pretty much always 70's rock on Pandora, because that's what was on the radio when I was a kid, cleaning the house with my mom. Thus, it's the music I associate with cleaning (and also working on cars, as it was the same music playing in the garage with dad.) I'm pretty sure she did 98% of the cleaning and us kids just played with the vacuum, as mine do now.

I like that track.
I am a bit rubbish at keeping track of music. I tend to stick with the oldies, but that I liked.

I don't think it would make me clean though, more of a chill.

I do love me some 70's rock! That does indeed make you do housework and mechanic wizardry.

I love driving to it. I am bit of a music on, window down, sunglasses on kind of driver.

Hate driving with no music.

Guten Tag-

Because 'housework' isn't just "Ladies work" will You take a couple off of My "playlist"? Now before I dump them to You/Yours You need to know that I've whittled My day down to the D's. And there are only 2 of these Ds and if I can do these 2 Ds each day, then each day is "complete". Those 2 Ds are this:

#1) Dogs. If I can feed the dogs and take them to the Dog park then I'm 'halfway' there..

#2) Dishes. I do any dishes that SWMBO may have left over. (SWMBO= She Who Must Be Obeyed)

Today, I was Done by 09:37 hrs. You always want to end on a Prime number..

Here are My songs:

Song #2 "Making Pies" is kinda like My current philosophy. The lyrics really set the tone.

This is also quite a chilled collection.

Maybe I need more of kick up the behind music to motivate to clean stuff up.

You lot obviously are very good at not getting way laid, for example or ATS or staring at something shiny.

Housework!?!

How about cooking?

I prefer Jazz when I cook, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, John Coltrane, Django Reinhardt, Count Basie, Benny Goodman, Miles Davis and Duke Ellington usually get the job done.

And because sometimes "Work" can get One down there is this:

Yes, it's probably my favourite track from the album, but to be fair there are a few more rockier tracks on there.

a reply to: MrsNonSpecific

This. I listen to this.
