    Express Yourself, Madonna
    Buffalo Stance, Neneh Cherry

    BPM is important (for me) when doing cardio......

    You put in your running / walking pace & get a list of songs. You can narrow the list by genre too

    I listen to a lot of latin music. Bachata, Merengue, Salsa....great for a fast work-out. The slowest Bachata song may have you walking in 3.3 pace if you walk to the beat. Up-beat Merengue and Salsa - 3.5 pace - 4.0 pace. I use Romeo Santos Pandora Radio when I work out to get a variety.

    These are some of my stand bys - I add new music all the time, but these seem to be the ones that always get me going.

    Lady Marmelade by Christina Agulerra (I spelled nothing right here, I know)
    Freedom by George Michael
    Sweet Child of Mine by Sheryl Crow
    California Girls by Katie Perry
    It's Time by Imagine Dragons

    I listen to a variety of music while I workout, sometimes rock or sometimes really upbeat - depending on my mood, those both get me pretty pumped.

    Sometimes I use FitRadio and do the Top 40 or Spotify and make a playlist of DJ mixes...

    Some songs I have are

    Clarity - Brillz Remix by Zedd
    Spectrum - Radio Mix by Zedd
    I love it - Icona Pop
    I need your love - Calvin Harris
    Champs - Moguai
    We Run the Night - Havana Brown
    Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO
    Raise your Glass - Pink
    Starry Eyed - Ellie Goulding
    E.T. - Katy Perry (and the mixes she has on her album)
    Animals -Martin Garrix
    Stay the Night - Zedd
    Find you - Zedd
    Young and Beautiful - Lana Del Ray

    I like the whole Dear Agony album by Breaking Benjamin too - sometimes I listen to that when I'm having a bad day and it gets me motivated.

    Pop Punk and Hardcore usually do the trick for me...

    Balkan brass bands. Those guys are FAST.

    Also, in certain moods, metal from the 90's. Especially if it's hot outside.

    Goto iTunes and subscribe to the Tiesto - Clublife Podcast. It has plenty of great upbeat music to get you moving. It's what I listen to when doing cardio or circuit training.

    Depends on my mood.... Sometimes I like to do cardio and just listen to the sounds around me without music but with music it changes.
    Some on my current playlist:
    Sail - Awolnation
    Short Change Hero - The Heavy
    Some Nights - FUN
    Supermassive Black Hole - Muse
    Thrift Shop - Macklemore
    And We Danced - Macklemore
    Home for A Rest - Spirit of the West
    The Little Things - Danny Elfman
    No Heaven - DJ Champion
    That's Not My Name - The Ting Tings
    Baby Got Back - Sir Mix-A-Lot
    Ready to Fall - Rise Against
    Dead Disco - Metric
    The Pretender - Foo Fighters
    212 - Azealia Banks (Warning Inappropriate language, including a word that rhymes with punt)
    Wake Me Up - Avicii --Speed Remix
    Say Hey (I love you) - Michael Franti
    Immigrant Song - Karen O (fantastic remake)
    Can you Do this? - Aloe Blacc

    I mix between fast and slow since I do a lot of interval work. I would recommend playing around with music and trying out different genres to find what works best for you.

    I need to get a better setup for music listening, I can only really do it when I'm doing the elliptical, treadmill, walking, etc.

    My headphones always keep getting unplugged doing anything else. Thinking about looking into some bluetooth headphones.

    I have to listen to music when I work out, almost like a must. But the biggest issue is a good pair of headphones that don't come off.
