I realize that is posted about every other week ... but ... I have a very specific request. About 6 months ago I posted looking for running songs and found someone with awesome tastes. I download like everything she told me to and I love it ... so I figured I would try again.

I like all kinds of music ... but my favorite running songs are rock songs (like Linkin Park or PapaRoach), rap songs (like Pitbull or 3OH!3) and ... well I dont know what to call this but "Spanglish" like Kumbia Kings Fuego or Daddy Yankee Rompe ...

I hate top 40 stuff almost all of the time ... I do like the Cobra Starship song and the Maroon 5 song though ... thats about it for Top 40.

So what do you love ... for my songs either have to have a great beat ... or motivtional lyrics ... or both

(and ok I like cheesy Disney pop as well ... with motivational lyrics)

    I just turn on Matt and Kim radio on pandora and it plays awesome music with great beats to run to. (it is more alternative so not sure if it is what you are looking for. Tallulah by Company of Theives is always a song that gets me moving as well. Just a fun song to sing! I figure if it makes me want to dance, then it will make me want to move and run.

    Can't pick a favorite, but Primus, Ministry, and Pantera are all favorites.

    If I had to pick *one*, Army of Me by Bjork. The version from the Sucker Punch soundtrack.

    My favorite one right now is Rihanna's Who's That Chick. The beat is always a pick me up, too bad the song is so short. I recently had to run a physical test where i had to run as far as I could in 12 minutes and put that as the last two songs to keep me going.

    If you like Linkin Park, I love the Jay Z/Linkin Park album. I just downloaded it for the gym. Haven't taken it running yet.
