When I'm at Starbucks or the library I have to listen to my ipod to drown out some of the noise.  Does anyone else listen to music while they study? What's on your study playlist?

Here's some of my favorite study songs to keep me motivated:


Move Along- All American Rejects
Don't- Billy Currington
Your Grace is Enough-Chris Tomlin
Any song by Colbie Cailat
Won't Back Down- Tom Petty
I love you always forever- Donna Lewis
Any song by Jack Johnson
I'm Yours- Jason Mraz
The Middle- Jimmy Eat World
It Ain't Nothin- Keith Whitley
All in All- Lifehouse
Break My Stride- Matthew Wilder
Waiting All My Life- Rascal Flatts
Any Man of Man- Shania Twain
Gypsy- Fleetwood Mac
Chicken Fried- Zac Brown Band

ok, so one other person besides me listens to music.

I've concluded that the rest of y'all are boring. Or maybe y'all are actually studying for this exam instead of writing on cpa forums all day...

I'm done but I usually studied to Russian rock (I generally listen to Russian music)...  So not all of us accountants here are boring :-)

AccountingNerd8,

I'm not studying for the exam but I have some suggestions for some really good music that works while sitting in my office helping CPA exam candidates (close enough right!)

I'm just like you - I need the background noise whether I'm working or blogging or whatever it is.

Some more upbeat stuff to keep you awake during those long hours (I've had to crank these up more than once while working late!) - check out The Hood Internet mashups, The Dismemberment Plan, Said the Whale, Battles, The Dresden Dolls...

...I'm into indie music. Let me know if you want some less out-there suggestions :)

Do you have a specific study playlist?
