Hello, I am tired of my workout songs. I want something new so please all mfp give me 1 and only 1 song that you listen to while you walk, run, bench press, garden anything and I will make a new play list from them all. But I am hoping to get a lot of people helping me out thats why I only ask for one. But if you really can't pick one then okay two will be great. Thanks ahead of time.

Like country and rock (just not super heavy music where they are screaming) Lite listening too. Just upbeat music.

    It would be a lot easier to pick just one song if I had any idea what kind of music you like....

    For now, I'll say "Lose Yourself" by Eminem. Since it's already an ode to giving it all you've got, if you change just a few of the words in your head as you mentally sing along, it becomes an anthem to leaving your heart on the gym floor.

    I don't really work out (I suck, I know) but if I were gonna pick one song that makes me wanna move (dance, run, whatever, just GET UP) it's "Everybody" by the Backstreet Boys. It's hard to sit still when that song is on. :)

    Rah-rah-rasputin!

    Seriously, Rasputin, by Boney M. It's a really good beat and sticks in your brain.

    My songs are always changing but I do have a couple of favorites.
    Right now, I'm listening to Shark in the Water by VV Brown. It's really bubbly and the perfect upbeat song for any activity. And "*kitten* You" by CeeLo Green. It's kind of ridiculous but it's fun to listen to and it's a great song to end a run to.

    Believe it or not, there's actually a nice beat behind Coldplay's "Clocks."

    My song for today is Usher Ft. Pitbull "DJ's Got Us Fallin In Love."

    (Oops! that's 3 songs from me!)

    I'm sure you are going to get quite a variety of tastes here. My "go to" song at the end of every workout on the elliptical to keep me going that last 5 or 6 minutes is called Keep Yourself Warm by Frightened Rabbit. Great song and beat.

    Colorful language though--hopefully you can get beyond that.

    I know you said you listen to rock and country, but I LOOOOVVVEEE listening to Kid Sister's Ultraviolet album and anything by Girl Talk. If Kid Sister (rap) isn't your thing, give Girl Talk a try. He's a DJ that mixes all sorts of songs together, rock, pop, country, rap...everything.
