      Kryptonite - 3 Doors Down
      Witchcraft - Pendulum


      And a few others that have already been mentioned, Pitbull, LMFAO, Rihanna, Lady Gaga etc. I like fast music, something that's easy to zone out too - but the above two always push me and really pump me up!!

      My favorite Zumba songs, two of which are "Drop it low" & "Move ya body". Those songs are so much fun :bigsmile:

      I have an unusual one by a band many people may not no too well: The song is 'My Body' by Young the Giant.

      It's a pretty upbeat tune and with lyrics like this in the chorus it translates well to the gym!

      'My body tells me no
      But I won't quit
      Cause I want more'

      I plug in Pandora on Cardio dance and take what they throw at me :-) There are a bunch of cardio stations now and there is something majikal about not knowing what the next song will be. Having said that "Walk This Way" by Aerosmith is my all time fav "get your *kitten* moving" song followed closely by Pitbull's "Pause". Right now my new motivation song (to keep me "up") is Lady Gaga's "Edge of Glory" Hard to peter out when that is blasting in my ears!

      gaawd I am so lost in my Zumba class during "Drop it low" :embarassed:

      currently 2 favorites of mine to get me motivated is
      Snow's Theme - Final Fantasy XIII (yes video game music. yes I am a gamer/geek/nerd thanks for asking)
      and
      Apocalyptica - One
      It's the music playing in the background from a Versus commercial I heard a while back. it gets me going everytime

      To this day, 6 years after I first heard it, I still love Goodbye Tonight by Lostprophets. I ran to that song when I was in Iraq and it helped me get through 135 degree weather runs.

      My current song is Wild Ones by Florida feat. Sia. I love it.
