Top tunes for cleaning every room

From soothing sounds to banging dance tracks, the right music will lift your mood as you sweep, mop and clean. And, if you pick a special tune for each room, you can dance as if no one’s watching and get the task at hand done and dusted.

We all know that music can make or break the mood. In fact, researchers have found that music regulates your mood, affects your focus and has an influence on the way you feel. No wonder music has been used for centuries to change energy levels and even help people who are ill or suffering from emotional trauma. So if the thought of spring-cleaning makes your heart sink, music could be just the answer.

Inspired by Kimberly Wyatt’s sizzling dance moves, we’ve compiled a special soundtrack to help you whizz through each room and set the mood – even before you start cleaning.

For the kitchen

The kitchen can be a noisy place, especially when it’s time to declutter the surfaces in preparation for your spring-cleaning session. So to boost your energy levels, we recommend the uplifting sounds of samba (perfect to mask the sound of banging pots and pans):

• ‘Betece (feat. Amadou Balake)’ by Africando All Stars
• ‘Livin’ la Vida Loca’ by Ricky Martin

Tip Complement your soundtrack with the advance cleaning power of Fairy Platinum Dishwasher tablets.

For mopping the floors

If the kitchen, bathroom and hallway floors seem to stretch out with no ending in sight, it’s time to give your mop more passion. We recommend the rhythm and beauty of tango. To help you sweep with conviction, try:

• ‘Santa Maria’ by Gotan Project
• ‘Libertango’ by Astor Piazzolla

Tip For sparkling clean floors that smell great too, try Flash Floor Liquid.

For the bathroom

The sight of limescale is enough to send shivers down anyone’s spine. But luckily there’s hope for conquering those bathroom blues. Electronic dance music, disco or pop is definitely the way to go – the fast tempo, bass line and high energy levels will get you shaking your booty in no time:

• ‘Sweet Lovin’ (feat. Bryn Christopher)’ by Sigala
• ‘Titanium (feat. Sia)’ by David Guetta

Tip Viakal cuts through limescale in minutes and leaves your surfaces super shiny.

For the lounge

After a busy day, the sound of the vacuum can be too much for you and the rest of the household. So just before you hit the ‘on’ button, put on some classical music to balance things out. Classical music is known to uplift, calm and even increase brainpower:

• ‘Clair de Lune’ by Debussy
• ‘The Four Seasons (Spring)’ by Vivaldi

Tip Give your cushions, sofa and curtains a new lease of life with the refreshing scents of Febreze.
