NMCruzzin Posted January 4, 2008 Author #27 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hi There, I'm bringing up this thread again - did you get an iPod for Christmas? :confused: My sister did, and we dug up some really great music CD's and traded them to put on our iPods. After all of the 'fun':eek: I had in December, I'll be walking everyday to my tunes for at least the next 6 weeks! :o I've been going over some of the lists and writing some of them that I want to check out on the i tunes store and add to my library. So I guess I'm guilty of bumping this back up - but if you have some music ideas to share....do it! * If you like jazz....I got a CD called Nils - Pacific Coast Highway - I like it!:) check it out. Happy Tunes Everyone!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndwells05 Posted January 8, 2008 #29 Share Posted January 8, 2008 My mom got me an iPOD for Christmas. I like to walk three miles (fast paced) a couple times a week. Some of the songs that get me moving are: Blue Monday - Orgy, If - Janet Jackson, Gotta Get Thru This - Daniel Bedingfield, Blue - Eiffel 65, and Yeah! - Usher.

jwhouston Posted January 9, 2008 #30 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Faster Kill Pussycat by Oakenfold (w/ Brittany Murphy) I love this song, it's on my list too. Other songs I have are: The Sound of San Francisco (Global Deejays) What Ya Waiting For (Gwen Stefani) Canned Heat (Jamiroquai) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

na44 Posted January 10, 2008 #32 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Well, these aren't the first 3 on the list, but they are my KICK-TRASH songs! I Need A Hero - Bonnie Tyler I Feel Love - Blue Man Group (great drums for you runners) Come On Eileen - Save Ferris (way faster then Dexie's Midnight Runners and great for interval training) Also, I have to admit, I love the Hawaii 5-0 theme and the Rocky theme. I feel like a rockstar when I run to them. (besides, we all know that when you have the Rocky theme playing in the background that you CAN NOT stop and walk. It's a natural law that can't be denied) Nellie Hey...I'm kind of new around here, how do I get my online signature with my countdown to appear?

NMCruzzin Posted January 10, 2008 Author #33 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Hi na44, Thanks for adding your songs to the lists - it just keeps growing and I never thought of adding music from the Blue Man Group! I'll have to check that out! And you are right on about that Rocky Music! :D Go to the top of the page and look to your left - you'll see User CP... click on that and your profile should come up so you can add your signature. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted January 12, 2008 #34 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I don't have an ipod, but an mp3, close enough! DH got me one for x-mas, and has loaded a playlist for me, and I've been thinking I need to create one for the gym - these are some that get me through the MTR (metro) stations on my way to work. Pump it Up - Elvis C. Gimme Shelter - Stones I Want You to Want Me - Cheap Trick Fast As You - Dwight Yoakam But I'll also be checking out that Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack - gotta connect the exercise to the cruise!

shieldsfamilyof4 Posted January 17, 2008 #36 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Great thread! I have a weird taste in music. I started riding the Recumbent Bike at the gym and believe it or not I have the following on my list for the bike: Pavarotti - Nessum Dorma (Opera) which I use as my warm up Dean Martin - Mambo Italiano (Oldie) - Get's me moving a little quicker Third Day - Sing a Song (Christian Rock) keeps me moving Nelly - Shake Your Tailfeather (Rap) much faster pace Nelly - #1 (Rap) I sing this to my employees every day so they remember that we are #1 Hot Action Cop - Fever for the Flava -(Rock) Extremely EXPLICIT song but the beat and pace are great. Try not to listen to the lyrics. They are vulgar and I promise I did not know what they were saying when I put it on my iPod. As a matter of fact I had it on in my car when my teenage daughter got in and said MOM, WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO?? I'm embarrased to say it's on my iPod but this is the fastest paced song on my iPod and I use it as my half way mark. GO REAL FAST for 4-5 minutes!! Beastie Boys - Fight for your right (Rap) Tower of Power - Diggin on James Brown (R & B - Soul) Toby Keith - Good to go to Mexico - (Country) start to slow it down (GREAT CRUISE SONG!) LSU FIGHT SONG (self explanatory - gives me a winner's attitude!) Beatles - In my Life (Oldie) last song. Slows me down and makes me think of all the things I'm thankful for in my life. Don't hold my list against me!! Vickie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizzie3180 Posted January 20, 2008 #37 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I like angry songs to match my mood at having to go to the gym. 1. Disease-Matchbox Twenty 2. Best of Me-Foo Fighters 3. I Don't Feel Like Dancing-Scissor Sisters 4. Miss Independent-Kelly Clarkson 5. Silver-Moist Otherwise I just like really fast beats like Sexyback.

LauraJo08 Posted January 22, 2008 #38 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Well, I'm a daily 6 mile runner (nothing like endorphins), and I know that there are some songs that come on that I can run to forever. My faves Running up that hill - Placebo Walk it Out- Unk (I know it sounds ridiculous but the song is really catchy). Son's gonna rise in a mile - Citizen Cope Low - Flo Rida Zombie - The Cranberries Ms. New Booty- Bubba Sparxx Sexyback - JT What I've Done- Linkin Park Jolene- The White Stripes Spanish Caravan- The Doors Date Rape- Sublime (ignore the stupid title) Crank that- Soulja Boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NMCruzzin Posted January 30, 2008 Author #45 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hey There Music Lovers, Time for me to add a few new songs: Rocky Theme & Eye of the Tiger Heat is On & Netron Dance - Beverly Hills Cop Jump & Jive - Louie Prima Talk About It - Nicole C Mullens Neils Fandago - Doobie Brothers Celebration- Kool & Gang I Feel Love - Blue Man Group Very Old School, eh? :D Question: Have any of you 'subscribed' to the runners music? It says free - and updates each time you sync for new music. Just wondering how this works - and do you like it? I personally kind of like using some of my own selections but am not opposed to trying something a little different once in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyal2RoyalCaribbean Posted March 1, 2008 #50 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I don't have certain songs to listen to but I find it more succesful if I exercise to slow songs, I do my push-ups and sit-ups, and jog to the beat of the slow music, mostly country or sad/depressing songs. The workout is more effective if it's done slowly, and it doesn't seem so brutal if music is involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
