What are some good songs of varying tempos that I could add to my MP3 player so I can listen while I walk?

    Most anything by Crystal Castles is great cardio music!

    Depends on what type music you like - I like some cheesy pop music sometimes to get going, Black Eyed Peas, Pitbull (love Int'l Love with him and Chris Brown), LMFAO (it's hard to focus on being tired when you hear "I'm Sexy and I Know It" - LOL), and "Pretty Girl Rock" is fun for a cool down.

    I also like the Ramones to get going (of course, I can ALWAYS listen to them - lol) or Rob Zombie is good too.

    For a leisurely walk, I'd go with Jimmy Buffett, especially with warm weather!

    Yep, I am musically diverse - LOL

    I Googled "songs to walk to" and found this site:

    http://walk.jog.fm/

    It asked the minutes I walk a mile in and I put in 16 because I just did the math on it today (I walk at lunch time) and it recommened a bunch of songs that are about 135 bpm (beats per minute)
    I have raphsody so I'll probably check some of them out!! Hope this helps!

    Like you, I love all kinds of music! That's why I feel ok asking a generic question like this because I am sure to get a wide variety of options. :)

    Don't laugh...but even with my eclectic tastes I've only heard of one or two of those artists...lol. What kind of music is that?

    A little bit of everything, I guess mostly hip hop/rap now that I look at it, but other stuff too :)

    I should've also mentioned, Girl Talk!! He's a DJ/mashup artist, it's awesome for workouts! His album All Day can be downloaded free here:
