I know I know, so please dont shoot me....I realize that there are many many topics on running songs, and believe me I have went through all of them. But I am wanting a playlist of classic rock songs and some rock that led into the 80's. Like AC/DC, Foriegner, Bon Jovi, Joan Jett, Def Lepard and so forth and so on. So send me some song titles ....... Thanks

    :bigsmile: Gonna get some AWESOME ideas from this thread.

    I do two things depending on my mood and the type of exercise. Sometimes I just put it on the radio and let the radio go. It's really good for keeping work outs interesting to not know what will come next (I tend to do this if I'm running intervals).

    Otherwise, and this is for running, I go around and try to find songs with the right beat for the pace I'm running. I find that The Who's Tommy album works really well, along with Love Reign O'er Me. Also, Bon Jovi's Living on a Prayer and Styx's Come Sail Away work well.

    Plus, John Mellencamp's Hurts So Good works well, just sometimes it feels like taunting.
