I think the checkered CD is maybe REM Out of Time ( a similar little cheat because I think you can make out some of the letters). Strokes Is this It, was wondering if the rainbow was U2 and looks like Dan confirms with more confidence than me. The others really no idea Red maybe a Pearl Jam album? Really like the idea of this quiz though and similarly disappointed in my lack of knowledge here.
Songs that get me going: Safety Dance: Men Without Hats, Groove is in the Heart: Deee-Lite, Give It Away: RHCP (or anything from Blood Sugar Sex Magik), more recently Purple Hat and Best Friend: SOFI TUKKER
Also, not sure if inappropriate association but this makes me kind of think of the Tainted Love (Soft Shell) Levi's commercial.
The Strokes Is This It?, G. Love and Special Sauce, Cranberries Everybody Else is Doing It, So Why Can't We?, Caedmon's Call Guild Collection Vol. 2, REM Out of Time, Best of Taj Mahal, Levon Helm Electric Dirt, U2 Pop
Here goes - top left, The Strokes, just didn’t blur enough into the background so that one is a gimme. Next to it, the purple disc, I don’t know why but my gut reaction was that is G Love & Special Sauce, I might be totally off on that. Bottom left has to be U2 - Pop, I played that CD a lot and remember it fondly. Bottom right I’m going to guess is The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, but that’s just based on the checkered pattern and I’m probably wrong. And I’m disappointed in myself for not even having a guess on the rest of them.
The song that always gets me to the dance floor at any reception: Billie Jean - Michael Jackson. Not my favorite song by a mile, but that bass line gets me moving.

Dan--the bass line on Billie Jean is undeniable. So good. It makes me move, too.
And your CD guesswork is very solid. You got 3 of 8. U2 Pop, Strokes, and G Love. I am so happy you pulled out G Love & Special Sauce--I didn't think anyone would get that. That's a favorite album of mine. A buddy played me Baby's Got Sauce driving down to Galveston at age 16, and I was hooked. This Ain't Livin' is my favorite from the album.

Beau--your "songs that get me going" are undeniable. So glad you mentioned Deee-Lite...a Jorgensen family favorite.
I can confirm you are right about Strokes, U2, and Out of Time. Solid work.

September is fire. You can’t help but bust a move to the groove. It’ll have you off your rocker faster than you can slap your happy grandpappy.
It'll get you off your rocker, for sure, Jake. September is fire.
