The New Kids on the Block are back, and I'm dancing. Are you?

My favorite group from my elementary school days, New Kids on the Block, performed on the Today Show. This was the first time in 15 years the boys were on stage together, and it wasn't under the greatest conditions (it was pouring rain and the acoustics were not good). However, as soon I heard Hangin' Tough, I was right back in fifth grade and busting out moves that haven't been seen in years (perhaps with good reason, but I had a great time anyway).

It got me thinking about music and motivation -- not that we haven't written about playlists and what songs pump you up before, but what music makes you get off the couch and dance alone in your living room? Or in the grocery store? Or wherever you happen to be?

We tend to save our most motivating music for workout playlists, but why not play it at home when you're cooking, or cleaning up, or playing with the kids? Busting a move will help you burn calories and lift your spirits, and I want to know -- will NKOTB get you grooving again?
