Work out tunes

I had a friend recently turn me on to jog.fm - it's amazing! My current play list is for a 9:30-9:45 mile and it's so eclectic. I ran with a co-worker last week and her ipod was dead so we shared mine and she laughed at my "taste" in music being so random.
That got me thinking - what do my MPF friends listen to when they workout?? What's your favorite song to get pumped up with? Anything you might be embarrassed by? Anything totally surprising?
Share your tunes with me please - I'm always looking for new songs for my workouts.
*Please forgive the Topic Title - should be Workout Tunes... oops

I'll start (cause I might be the only one awake right now):
My most embarassing is probably Every Rose has Its Thorn - great song, but I jam to the Miley Cyrus version (don't judge me)
Most surprising might be Earth Angel (Will You Be Mine) - by The Penguins. It's half the bpm I was looking for, so I just have to double the beat in my head. And I collect anything penguin related, so I had to download a song by The Penguins
Other songs that get me pumped up: Brown-Eyed Girl (Van Morrison), We Got The Beat (The Go-Gos), Pump It (The Black Eyed Peas), Strong Enough (Sheryl Crow), Say It Ain't So (Weezer), Nobody Ever Died of a Broken Heart (Trick Pony), The Rockafeller Skank (Fatboy Slim), Cyclone (Baby Bash), Jar of Hearts (Christina Perri), Love Like This (Natasha Bedingfield)
Like I said, it's a random mix, and that's just a sample. I love music that makes me forget I'm exercising - it makes the time more enjoyable in my opinion.
What's on your playlist??0 -
Alright - no lauging, but I have a lot of Weird Al and Peter, Paul and Mary. I wouldn't say it's good running music, but it take my mind off the fact that I am running. I also like to run to The Fenians, they really get me pumped - high energy.0

I've got Nine Inch Nails, Violent Femmes, Mephiskapheles, The Killers, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, *kitten* Surfers, Dead Milkmen, and Supersuckers on my workout mix.
My guilty pleasure: Psy "Gangnam Style"
I like a lot of random, fast, fun stuff when I work out.0
