  • Wow I seriously can't believe how close that got at the end! No need to thank me, it was fun, thank you for doing all the work haha. Maybe in a few months we can get more people voting with a new batch of songs
  • Although I like Eminem and this particular song, and even voted for it a couple of times, I'm a little surprised that it ended up being the ULTIMATE workout song! It's definitely not as fast as I like (for working out anyway).
  • I can see what you mean, Missy! I think it's the strength behind the lyrics that carried it to the top spot.

    I would definitely like to do this again soon. Might give it until the end of the year though just so enough time has passed!
  • I am gonna make a 3fc playlist! Fun!
  • If your on pandora a great channel is BRASSKNUCKLES. It gets you going for sure! Well at least me lol
  • I forgot to add the LMFAO channel too has good music.
  • ***LIKE***

    lol we really need a like button
  • If we do another round later I nominate All or Nothing by Athena Cage. For those of you that have seen Save the Last Dance it is the song she dances to at her 2nd audition.

    I used to listen to this song and Eminem's Lose Yourself back to back alot when working out cause they have a similar message and both have a good steady beat
  • Yeah, I would suggest adding Disturbed's Indestructable to the next round.
  • Well, this is semi-embarrassing, but I always find the old "Aquarium" soundtrack (by Aqua) to be great for working out and/or late nights when I have to work. Most of the songs are peppy and fun....yes, it is the Barbie Girl album.

  • Haha, my2cats my iTunes was on shuffle and Cartoon Heroes came on yesterday. Had a great sing song!

    I think I'll open up another challenge at the end of the year, hopefully we can get lots of nominations like this time!
