    Don't You Evah by The Spoons. Got a great drum beat! Others....
    All The Same by Sick Puppies
    If I Never See Your Face Again by Maroon 5 and Rihinna
    Lots of old 80's pop and hard rock and some stuff from the 70's. Flo Rida's Low is awsome to workout to, and Nelly has great beats as well.
    Test out all Genere's of music. I have Country, rock, rap, and pop. I am still searcing for new stuff as well!

    When I'm going for walks I listen to more relaxed stuff.. john mayer, the fray, one republic...
    when i'm doing high endurance stuff i listen to Top 40 type stuff.. Lady Gaga, Black Eyed Peas, Britney Spears... however, after recent events, I've been working out to a WHOLE lot of Michael Jackson.. his "dangerous" and "thriller" albums in particular are awesome for keeping your energy up :P

    I listen to mostly hip hop when I am running, but I really like putting in a few silly fast songs for fun. For example, whenever "Who let the dogs out" comes up on my workout playlist I have to laugh and have fun while running. I say find a song that makes you laugh and you will bring some fun to your routine :)

    www.podrunner.com with DJ Steveboy, or www.fitmusic.com --- two really good sites to download FREE podcasts of techno with lengths of at least 30 minutes to an hour - I find these help me push myself, I don't have to search for music that fits my mood, and podrunner actually has the workout music listed by bpm so you don't wind up with music that doesn't move you.
    That covers the cardio portion.

    For weight training, its usually metal. Metallica rules. From any decade!! lol

    Nothing beats the 80's music for a great driving beat. Locomotion, Jump, The Heat is On, lots of Huey Lewis songs, more current artists would be Beyonce, Lady GaGa, Christine Agulera (Candyman). I could go on and on because I'm an aerobic instructor and have been purchasing music for years and years.

    THATS SOUNDS LIKE ME, I LOVE THE 80'S MUSIC.

    That kind of music pushes you when you are ready to give up!
