Hello. I always listen to music before an important sports performance (e.g: match, of any type). It helps me get in the mood of what I have to do. For example when I play football (soccer), I play central defence (Fullback), I am a Nobby Styles kind of player (a.k.a, hard as nails, tough geezer) I often start off listening to something like: Eminem - lose yourself. I don't particularly like rap, but it helps me get in a good mood with that; you've got one shot, one opportunity stuff... Then I listen to something a bit harder, this kind of F-you music, I guess it helps me over come fear of my opponents and that I go in hard into situations etc.. Anyway I was wondering does anyone else do this and if you do, could you suggest some songs for me please ;) cheers, Pigstein.
