Beethoven? His music helps me relax and fall asleep rather than energize me. Interesting that it doesn't have that affect on other people. i listen to classical when i am too excited and/or energize to sleep;it's very lulling.

I listened to Crazy Town's "butterfly" song before an xc meet once. It's on a CD a friend had just burned for me a couple of days before the meet.

Re: best running music!!!
Heavy metal is not good for xc races. All metal does is make you hyper, making you start off too fast.

Personally, I choose some songs off Morning View, November Rain by GnR, and Nothingman by PJ.
