    I just downloaded a couple songs I remembered and don't hear much- a dance mix of "take a chance on me" and an old 90s song "little black backpack". Some of my favorites are like pump you up stadium rock music-like Prayer for a Refugee or Bleed it Out.
    I also like some P!nk, Britney, and ke$ha.
    I also downloaded bulletproof (can't remember the artist) and Eminem's "lose yourself".
    A new song that I like for working out is Young the Giant's "My Body" cuz the lyrics are "my body tells me no, but I won't quit, cuz I want more." and in my head I think, "I want to eat more so I am doing this workout!":tongue:

    I like listening to upbeat songs when I am walking although sometimes working out is when I will catch up on my podcasts :) I think music makes you go faster though.

    The Workout station on Pandora is a good one, as well as remixes to songs.

    Good eclectic mix! You guys rock! I'm so adding some of these to my playlists.

    Can't forget Rhianna S&M (or anything else), David Guetta, Usher, Boys of Summer (either version) Black eyed peas... and one of my gulity pleasures.... Britney.

    Other corny ones that I always fall back on the soundtracks to Mamma Mia, Flashdance and Footloose (the original) although the new one will prob be good too. Oh, and then there's Gaga... I used to be a hater, but she has some catchy tunes!! I've converted.

  • I love putting on deadmau5's For Lack of a Better Name album and playing it through. All of the songs have pretty much the same tempo so you can go from one song to another without your stride getting thrown off.
