many times on here i see the old. song suggestion threads. To me these are kinda asinine. So many people listen to so varied music what most people may suggest perhaps for me personally i would not be caught dead with it on my ipod.
Aswell as most people wouldn't want to listen to 80's hairbands and older heavy metal and clasic rock.

Perhaps a little more specific in those subject lines for example "song suggestions (genre) ?
Otherwise without having any clue of what a person likes most suggestion are unhelpful.

but thats just me

    I think the point is people are bored with their current listening option and ask other MFP'ers for suggestions ..they are seeking things they normally wouldnt have chosen..if your seeking a genre specific thread then im sure you can title yours as such but for most that I have seen they are just seeking options from all genres..

    I am always looking for new music, but not necessarily for my workout playlist (trance suffices for that). Once genre I am big into right now are groups like Thievery Corp, Sofa Surfers, Bang Gang, Beauty's Confusion, etc. Sometimes they are listed as trip hop.

    I sort of disagree with you, my reason for wearng my ipod when running is to distract me, the music i recently downloaded, called 'fantastic running songs' is not the sort of music i would lay on the beach listening to, but it is the right temp for my pace. To be honest, it could just as easy be a talking book!!

    Or maybe because the question has been asked by every person and their brother, perhaps the poster could just search through the ENDLESS list of topics where that question has already been asked instead of adding to the already ENDLESS topic.

    I don't listen to only one genre. Why would I limit the suggestions to that? I would just ask outright what gets people motivated, then I'd youtube it, and if I like it, I'd download. I have multiple playlists for running. I use the "senseme" tool and can make a new playlist out of my whole cataloge just by chosing one song, it adds others with the similar BPM and "feeling" (they range on a sad to happy scale)

    Yep, I like to mix up my genres, so I kind of like to see what everyone else is listening to.

    The topic is from an individual asking for suggestions to possibly better "their" workouts, not anyone else's. It's not a site generated post, it's someone searching for an alternative. In my opinion, not very asinine.

    I opened this out of curiosity but I never open the music ones. They make me feel old and out of touch when I don't know the bands etc. Lol...and I know what I like and what I don't. I have a notepad fxn on my phone where I. Note songs when I hear them and thing...ooo that would be fun to run to...hence just added mc hammer to my playlist...lol..

    I just don't open threads that might annoy me...
