For those rare times I get to the gym...
I need some new songs to download that will get me moving! I am a classical and folk music person regularly, but in the gym, I can only listen to hip hop or other fast paced music. The problem is, I don't follow the music world much so I don't know what's out there now. Can you tell me some great songs to liven up the treadmill? For example, I have some songs by Rihanna and Lady Gaga that I think are great for jogging, but I don't even know what's come out in the last two years. What's on your playlist?
I really love to run to two of LMFAO's songs. One is Party rock anthem and the other is I'm sexy and I know it. Seriously, I can run so fast when those songs are on. I also like some of Beyonce's stuff like Put a ring on it, and some of Shakira's songs.
"Right Now" by Van Halen
Some of my favorite workout music is hip hop and I wouldn't normally listen to it either. Lyrics can be rather naughty, but the beat keeps me moving!
Cyclone- Baby Bash
Carry Out - Timbaland
Temperature - Sean Paul
Low & Right Round by Flo Rida
Yeah - Usher, Lil' Jon & Ludacris
Rock That Body and Pump it both by Black Eyed Peas
Stronger - Kanye West
I suggest seeing if you can download Body Pump or Body Attack music. Very motivating!!
I listen to hard rock such as Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Metallica, and Motley Crue while working out.
Try Katy Perry - songs like Hot & Cold, I Kissed A Girl, Teenage Dream they are light bubbily and fun. I like to listen to Queen a lot too - Killer Queen, Fat Bottom Girls, The Show Must Go On is a great cool down song! I like a bit of Kelly Clarkson's "anthem" style songs like Stronger, Mr. Know It All, Never Again, oh and LFMAO(?) sexy and I know it or party rock anthem - would never listen to them for any other reason to be honest.

Great for cardio--Prince's Purple Rain album. Buy it so you can keep the songs in original order. The sequence is perfect for revving it up and then cooling it down.
go to Itunes and you can sample some music. They even have workout cds (as well as Barnes and Noble). Amazon also lets you hear the music before you buy.
LMFAO Sexy and I know it!
You'll laugh.. but my playlist (while quite varied) includes "A Little Less Conversation" by Elvis Presley. It is on an album my 14 yr old son wanted a couple of years ago.
