    Now That We Found Love by Heavy D and the Boyz. It's great for walking and reminds me to keep up the pace when I'm getting tired.

    Can't Hold Us by Macklemore

    This is my current favourite start up song. Really gets the blood pumping.

    The Middle by Jimmy Eat World!
    Hey don't write yourself off yet
    It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
    Just try your best, try everything you can
    And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away

    It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
    Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything (everything) will be
    alright (alright)

    Baba O'Reilly by The Who. I always remember that movie trailer from the movie "American Beauty", where Kevin Spacey was getting in shape, and he's running into the streets with that song.

    Pear Jam did a great cover of Baba O'Reilly!! They also did a great cover of Keep on Rockin in the Free World too. This has nothing to do with your post but when I can start talking about music, sometimes I cant stop!!

    my answer will probably be different on different days (and totally and utterly different, because I have a very eclectic taste in music), but for today.....

    the 3rd movement of Beethoven's moonlight sonata http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqSulR9Fymg

    and it has to be played right, most people don't put enough emotion and energy into Beethoven's music.


    or possibly the complete sonata, can't decide... (not so keen on the 2nd movement... maybe my theme tune should go straight from the 1st to the 3rd... but then Beethoven might not approve of that and say I don't understand the 2nd movement and that's why I don't like it so much... the 3rd movement is my favourite but the 1st is also amazing...)

    most people have only heard the first movement, but the entire thing is amazing:

    I was told by a friend that when she hears "Hold Your Head Up" by Steppenwolf she thinks of me.

    And if it's bad
    Don't let it get you down, you can take it
    And if it hurts
    Don't let them see you cry, you can make it

    Hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh
    Hold your head up, oh hold your head high

    And if they stare
    Just let them burn their eyes on you moving
    And if they shout
    Don't let it change a thing that you're doing

    Hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh
    Hold your head up, oh hold your head high

    I love anything by Epica (a Dutch symphonic metal band) but some stick out as awesome workout songs like "Deter the Tyrant," Sensorium" (sample lyric: I'm not afraid to die, I'm afraid to be alive without being aware of it), "Unleashed," and "Storm the Sorrow" to name a few.

    But my main one is "An Awful Lot of Running to Do" by Chameleon Circuit (a Doctor Who fan band).

    Although I like Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" waaaay better than Kanye West's, his is what comes to mind when I'm burning through a workout. :wink:

    Titanium by David Guetta also stayed in my head and kept me pumped the whole time during a 3 mile jog :heart:

    I have a couple! The song "Bad Girlfriend" by Theory of a Deadman describes me pretty dang well, but lately I'm also a huge fan of "Purpose" from the musical Avenue Q:

    I don't know how I know
    But I'm gonna find my purpose
    I don't know where I'm gonna look
    But I'm gonna find my purpose
    Gotta find out, don't wanna wait
    Got to make sure that my life will be great
    Gotta find my purpose before it's too late

    Two...Stronger and/or Breakaway...both Kelly Clarkson

    Love the chorus to Breakaway

    "I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
    I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
    And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
    And breakaway
    Out of the darkness and into the sun
    But I won't forget all the ones that I love
    I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change
    And breakaway"
