What's the best music to put on while you clean your house?

Not that I'm about to do dishes or anything >_>

45:33 by LCD Soundsystem.

I'm super into glam metal from the 80s these days. I forgot how much I love it.

House music :-)
- Looks like a cover for a good album to clean house to.
  
  Hello doggy :-)

For me, it's not music. Not mentally stimulating enough, it just makes me irritated. It has to be podcasts for me.
Music works when I'm doing tasks that are already mentally stimulating.

I have always listened to Katamari Fortissimo Damacy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAA6hq9RL-4

Deep (clean) house.
- Yeah I like techno/dance/house sort of music while doing house tasks.

1980s montage music
- The A Team building something montage music.
  
  Worked for Top Gear.

High energy beats, anything you like that has high tempo will do, from the ride of the Valkiries to La gasolina from Pitbull, anything high energy will get you heart pumping to get things done.

Everything in its Right Place by Radiohead

Electric Light Orchestra, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, The Rubettes. Essentially the same as when I go running.

I love listening to Big Band Jazz. Specifically I put this on whenever I do chores - https://www.aor.am/

I put rave or Prodigy music on while I'm cleaning, pumps me right up!!!

First song in my "morning" playlist
Zebda - Tomber la chemise
Don't jump too hard, mind your joints
- That’s a great song for my students! I teach German, not French, but a LOT of my students have trouble distinguishing between the following (emboldened) vowels: tomber la chemise. This makes the difference between them really clear and will probably help sensitize them to the vowels :)
  Also it’s fun to listen to.
  
  Not too familiar with german... and definitely did not expect that a french song could prove useful for students of german ! nice

Louis Prima's album "The Lip".

For me it's stuff I can sing with.

Old 33rpm blues albums.

Mr. bungle

I really like these dj sets by mayv for whenever I need to focus on something, they're rhythmic, dancy, but still chill. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKz7MQ6y9w-K456AwrcUa_geIewSGOqF-

Psytrance
- infected mushroom intensifies Everything is cleaned at x2 speed.
  
  I put on shpongle by mistake! I've been doing the dishes forever but in an alternate dimension

Jazz.

it’s Michael Jackson, dnb or fast/aggressive hip hop for me

Zydeco

unknown mortal orchestra. great for cooking or cleaning

Jock Jams 47 is the only correct answer here.

I like stuff with a bumping beat and no words. K-Lone and Facta are some UK producers whose music I just play over and over when I need to focus.

Shulman, Ott, Globular, Easily Embarrassed
That's my jive. Makes me happy.

The Courtneys - The Courtneys II
Also the best for driving and working out.

That depends on your mood, but if you are in the right mood, some eurodance, EDM, or trance can speed up the cleaning
