Passive Entertainment

I am not really a music junkie, so these songs probably won't be super original. Basically, the only time I listen to music is when I have time to kill or something boring to do that requires background entertainment. These are a list of songs that can make boring tasks much more enjoyable.
1. The Last Time; Rolling Stones: This is one of my favorite Rolling Stones songs and has been for a long time. There's just something about all of their songs that I could listen to over and over again. This song in particular has a terrific solo as well as being upbeat and enjoyable to listen to without being too distracting.
2. Tighten Up; The Black Keys:  I have been a fan of The Black Keys for a while and this is still one of my favorite or their songs. This song does not have quite the same feel as a lot of their other louder songs, but it is a nice song to listen to when you have nothing to do.
3. Radioactive; Imagine Dragons: At this point in the boring activity, I start to get pretty bored. I need something much more energetic to keep me focused, and this song is nothing if not a pump up. If you have ever heard this song, you know what I'm talking about, and if you haven't, you're missing out. 
4. Oh My God; Jay-Z: Still keeping up with my pump up section, this song is one that will keep me motivated because of its incredible beat. This definitely has a lot more umph than a lot of the songs he has done recently, and is definitely one of my favorites.
5. Purple Haze; Jimi Hendrix: Winding down, the task/respite is almost over, and yet I still want that push to the finish, some final song to tie the whole experience together. This song is just amazing in every way. It requires no explanation to describe its amazingness, and must only be played as loud as possible.
