Advice for good "power" songs

[bleedingangel84]

I'm thinking of making myself a playlist of songs that make me feel hopeful/powerful/kick ass ready to stand up for myself. But, I'm not sure what songs to put on it. I have a few ideas, but I would appreciate advice if you guys have any suggestions. All music genres are welcome. Here are some I was thinking of using:

1. Katy Perry- "Roar" and Firework"


2. Lady Gaga- "Born This Way and "Do What You Want"


3. Pink-"Stupid Girl" and "So What"


4. Christina Aguilera- "Fighter"


5. Gym Class Heroes-"The Fighter"


6. Idina Menzel- "Brave", "I Stand ", and 'Defying Gravity"

And that's all the songs I have so far, but I would like to make one big list. Any help or suggestions for material to add would be highly appreciated. Thank you!
