Here is my list:

MGMT-Electric Feel
The Black Keys-Gold On the Ceiling
Tegan and Sara-Closer
Muse-Madness
Animal Collective-Today's Supernatural
Talking Heads-Psycho Killer
IAMDYNAMITE-Stereo
Coldplay-Clocks (I like the Rhythms del Mundo Cuba version for workouts)
Passion Pit-Take a Walk
Muse-Supermassive Black Hole
Queen and David Bowie-Under Pressure
The Hives-Tick Tick Boom
The Black Keys & RZA-Baddest Man Alive

    HAHAHA! We have almost the same playlist. I also like Trojans, by atlas genius and Heinrich maneuver, by Interpol. I mix that up with a little rap like Goodie Mob and Mac Dre to do my abs and blast through the end of my runs :)

    When I don't feel like running I find Kanye's Love Lockdown and the beat gets me going.
    Otherwise - I love anything by Karmin (originals, not covers).
    Fall Out Boy's new one is good too (this song knows what you did [light em up])


    If seriously lifting - I like hard rock (Godsmack, Metallica, STP, etc).
    Otherwise I like pop & hip-hop to get me going more.
