    Boom Boom Boom- The Outthere Brothers
    Down On Me- Jeremih & 50 Cent
    Get Back- Ludacris
    Gold Digger- Kanye West
    Headlines- Drake
    How Far We've Come- Matchbox 20
    Blame It- Jamie Foxx
    Look At Me Now- Chris Brown, Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes
    Paris- Kanye and Jay Z
    Sexy and I Know It
    Shots- LMFAO and Lil John
    The Show Goes On- Lupe Fiasco
    Sleazy- Ke$ha
    Super Bass- Nicki Minaj

    I have a couple mixes... but typically I use Pandora. I love it. I've probably got at least 25 stations on there - depending on my mood. They even have a Twilight pre-made station... For when I feel like a 13 year old girl. Which is often. lately.

    I listen to lots of angry stuff. Angry Dance from Billy Elliot is a good one, as is a good chunk of the songs from Emilie Autumn's newest album, Fight Like a Girl. For some weird reason, Time for Tea always gets me pumped XD

    I love you. :D That's such a great album, and all her stuff is in rotation on my Sansa... If people ONLY knew. :P

    I have 32GB of EBM, Industrial, Punk Noise, Electroglitch and various dubstep/EDM. I use the EDM stuff when I'm having a particularly crappy day and my hate music would just make me want to slaughter cute fluffy things. I just flip through whatever works with my tempo at the time - I ain't that picky.

    I love you too :D Fantastic album haha. And she puts on one hell of a show ;)

    I am always curious about what type of music people listen to while they are doing some sort of activity like running,weight training,cardio, etc. I change it up sometimes but I always end back to the house music pumpin through my ear buds.
    What do some of you listen to?

    While working out I ususally listen to the Hip Hop Power Workout station on Pandora it's all upbeat fast music that keeps me going.

    I have a playlist for exercise as I like to mix it but there's a lot of Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Muse, Black Stone Cherry, etc. Hard rock, mostly.

    I'm all over the place. The one song that really made me pick up my feet today was Jeremiah was a Bullfrog by Three Dog Night. And no, I am not that old! My dad used to sing it to me all the time when I was little.

    Usually a playlist that has Volbeat, In This Moment, Avenged Sevenfold , Motorhead and Slipknot
    Sometimes just play a certain artist like Tool or Opeth.

    Darkthrone's album The Cult is Alive, also love me some cheesy Bon Jovi songs and Manowar.
  • Click Flash - by Ciara
  • Anything that is fast paced or heavy. I usually have Skrillex or Slipknot playing so that I can kick some *kitten* with my work outs \m/
