Did You Make a Labor Soundtrack?

Whether you're preparing for a home or hospital birth, I'm sure you have a checklist of all the things you need.
And even though it's not a necessity, having a labor soundtrack helps make the experience more enjoyable for some moms.
lilmomma92706 wants to make one and asked for some suggestions. Here's what some moms said:
ANewPerspective: I'm going to make one but mine will be unlike some of the ones I've heard of. Normally people put a bunch of relaxing music on them, but I'm going to put upbeat stuff because I think that'll distract me better. I"ll definitely have Katy Perry, Seether, Britney Spears, and Nickelback.
Chick: I used "Godspeed (Sweet Dreams)" by The Dixie Chicks. I was having a boy so it was perfect and still makes me cry. It's very relaxing and sweet no matter what you are having. "Little Wonder" by Rob Thomas would also be great.
lanceandhailey: "My Little Girl" by Tim McGraw and "Fly To Your Heart" by Selena Gomez.
Lil Sugar also has some great suggestions. They have a huge list of labor songs but here are their top five:
Did you or will you have a labor soundtrack? What's on yours?

Yeah!!! I need to get on making a list now!!! I'm 32 weeks and not sure how much longer I'll go. I want a good mix of stuff like some really upbeat and dancy type stuff!!!
I didn't have one with my first, however, IF I ever have another kid (definately not any time soon!) there's going to be lots of growly melodic death metal. I joke that I will be growling my way through labor. lol
I didnt have a labor soundtrack but on the way to the hospital I was nervous, so DH put the song "Three Little Birds" by Bob Marley on and thats the last song I heard before delivering my son, so it brings back memories :)

I keep meaning to, but haven't.
Mine wouldn't be relaxing stuff - it would be songs that I could sing very loudly and enthusiastically.
