What music do you listen to when you are working out?
I'm looking for some good workout music. Please list artist and song name.
|
I've got a pretty eclectic mix on my MP3 player, pretty much anything rock with a good beat to it. There's a lot of Muse and Killers on there, U2's "how to dismantle an atomic bomb", some classic Bob Seeger (hollywood nights, roll me away). Cheap Trick (I want you to want me), Green Day the whole American Idiot album, some Counting Crows.
|
almost every song from Seether, I also listen to Chevelle, Breaking Benjamin. I don't have a list handy and I just removed all the music from my computer.
|
Push It by Salt and Pepa is always a good one.
Groove is in the Heart - DeeLite Need you tonight - INXS Hurts So Good - Mellencamp Anything by Ludacris Iron Man - Black Sabbath Amen - Kid Rock Already Gone - Eagles Killing in the Name - Rage Against the Machine Night Moves - Bob Seger - Or anything from him really Anything James Brown |
During cardio sessions I crank up Gossip (if you need a sample, check out the songs Love Long Distance, Dimestore Diamond and Vertical Rhythm), The Faint (sample The Geeks Were Right, Get Seduced, Let the Poison Spill From Your Throat and Glass Danse), and Gorillaz (Dare and Feel Good Inc. are good examples).
For lifting I'm listening to Deftones (Lifter, 7 Words, My Own Summer), Tool (aw shucks, they're my favorite band so its hard to pick a representative song... maybe Forty Six & 2), Puscifer (if you already like Tool and A Perfect Circle, check them out -- its... interesting. They have all kinds of remixes and whatnot, but check out Queen B and Momma Sed), Faith No More (Be Aggressive, Ashes to Ashes), Queens of the Stone Age (Little Sister), Kyuss (Deamon Cleaner), The Dead Weather (I Cut Like a Buffalo, Treat Me Like Your Mother) and Tomahawk (God Hates a Coward). Just some ideas -- the song examples may not be the best, but they're some that I never skip when they come up on my playlist. Good Luck and keep the ideas coming everyone! :) |
Here is my current play list for running. The name of the song is listed first and then the artist. :)
Fireflies - Owl City Telephone (feat. Beyoncé) - Lady GaGa Strict Machine - Goldfrapp Forced to Love - Broken Social Scene Gimme Sympathy - Metric We Don't Want Your Body - Stars Heads Will Roll - Yeah Yeah Yeahs SexyBack - Justin Timberlake Yours to Keep - Teddybears featuring Neneh Cherry What New York Used to Be - The Kills On Melancholy Hill - Gorillaz Romeo - Basement Jaxx Crystalised - The xx Hot-n-Fun (feat.

Thanks for the lists! Exactly what I'm looking for: new music. Should I post some of the stuff I have?
@Hunny24 Yeah I like Ludacris... don't know if I could exercise to him though. Iron Man... hmmm think I need to revisit some of my Black Sabbath. Haha The Godfather Of Soul... HEY! Classic. @mtlgirl Some of these I've never heard of. Can't wait to check them out. @cjohnson728 Fake It - one of the only Seether songs I know but I love it. Disturbed is awesome. Not a big fan of Blue Oyster Cult though. ;) But some songs I've not heard of so I'll have to check them out. |
Sure, post some of yours; could always use new songs!
Basically I use any of three criteria...if a song has a strong, quick beat; if it has a message that channels adrenaline in a good (like Resolution by Jack's Mannequin, forgot that one) or even angry (like Love the Way You Lie by Eminem with Rhianna) way; or if it reminds me of a certain place/time/situation that is motivating to me personally, even if the beat isn't great, it makes it onto the iPod. Sometimes it's not just the pace of the song that gets you going, if you know what I mean. Nice thread...hopefully it'll keep rolling a while. |
