We often see the olympic athletes listening to music before they go on to win the gold medal. I was curious to see what gets them inspired and focused before they compete.

According to the Today Show on 12 August, 2008 when Michael was asked he said: What did I have on today? I think I had Lil Wayne, “I’m Me.” I think I had that on there. Rhapsody has the full playlist posted by Phelps

Usain Bolt-another record breaker this year, loves listening to Elephant Man, Black Rhino and Beenie Man

My personal favorite : Dara Torres’s list
