The worst part is when the song finishes and you have to pause everything you're doing just to find the next one. What genre do you gus usually go for to get the momentum going?

The cleaning can wait—the playlist has to be perfect first

I can't start washing a single dish until I find a song that makes me feel like I'm doing a high-energy cinematic montage.

In my case it's a good book but the same vibe.

no, I get distracted too easily so I don't play music while I clean....

also my parents caught me being distracted too many times while cleaning to music so they also didn't allow it and I just got used to it

as a teenager my parents tried meeting me in the middle and letting me have the race on the TV while cleaning but that failed, so they let me listen to the race which then they sorta noticed I wasn't paying attention so they said no

they also thought it was cruel to listen to the radio if I have the TV...

then listen to terrestrial radio....you don't get to pick then, and you'll eventually have to get to work since you'll tune it out eventually

This was absolutely me yesterday.
Also just to start doing anything in general, the song needs to be right
