What's your ultimate transition song between work and weekend? You know, when you come home on a Friday night and your s/o is still not there, and you crank up your Axioms for all they're worth and do your best Tom-Cruise-Risky-Business impression?

I don't know about a weekend kickoff song, but along similar lines I do believe that there are some songs that just make you drive faster.
Officer: Did you know you were doing 85mph in a 55 zone???
Mike: Officer, I'm sorry. I had "Detroit Rock City" turned up. I don't know what happened.
Officer: "Detroit Rock City?" (hearty, good-natured laughter follows...) Well, that explains everything! I'm not even going to bother writing you a warning. It's perfectly understandable. Just watch your speed, okay? Maybe you could put in some Nick Drake or something like that...

Van Morrison's "Wild Night"
Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?

So cliché--and I know everyone around here hates them--but Metallica-either Enter Sandman from the Black Album or Until it Sleeps from S&M.

If left to myself in the mornings, it's gotta be(generally) late Baroque into classical, or Verdi, or Puccini.(Seriously, my Fathers' family is from Lucca; Puccini I grew up with-it grows on you)
Later in the afternoon it's usually light Jazz or(God help me)Country.(OK, me Mum was a real hillbilly; She countered Opera with Opery-more specifically Bluegrass) Hey: Loud Country can be fun too
In the evening after about 7:00; whatever, yes, very loud Rock sounds "Right" for the moment! And I crank it so the Kids often leave the house!! Can't be specific cause it varies with the mood

Back in Black; perhaps overplayed, but for good reason.

{giggles} we never sit for Back in Black!! That's right up there with Billy Idol for shifting a dance party into high gear!
Bob Seger - Roll me Away - now that one gets my weekend kicked off right every time.
