Excellent prompt!

1. I love the classic Paul Simon album Graceland for household tasks. Really upbeat and tends to wake me up.

2. Baby I'm Yours by Breakbot is an easy go-to for mass appeal and dance-ability.

3. Tough question. The first thing that popped into my head was Lower Your Eyelids to Die with the Sun by M83. In a similar vein is Ratatat's Cherry. Both songs start minimally and build up to some amazing harmonies. I'm particularly fond of the latter; I have lots of fond memories tied to that song.

4. Freedom sounds like one of the best songs off the greatest Zeppelin album. Trampled Underfoot is perfect for driving too fast with the windows open while tapping on the steering wheel and yelling along with the incomparable Robert Plant.
