Default What's On Your Ipod?

What are you listening to? What motivates you to keep going? I need some new tunes.

I have some very odd musical tastes, but...

The soundtrack to Spring Awakening (it's a rock musical written by Duncan Sheik, won many Tonys a few years back)

A bunch of old-school rap/hip-hop from when I was in high school (California Love, Apache, Regulate)

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes "Are a Drag" - an entire album of punk covers of showtunes.

A lot of Jason Mraz

A big eclectic mix of currently popular music, from Britney Spears and Rihanna all the way to The Killers, Katy Perry, and many others.

Also I have:
Jillian Michaels Radio Show podcasts
The Nutrition Diva podcasts

Hard rock and groovie tunes motivate me. I have multiple ipods and married a musician so I'm a bit obsessive when it comes to music. Vampire Weekend, Stevie Wonder, The Police, The Offspring, Rage against the Machine, Kings of Leon, Scissor Sisters, an amazing playlist I made called "Chicks" that has Madonna, Gwen, Bitter:sweet, Nancy Sinatra, Feist.

I go for what I call adolescent angst music: Avril Lavigne, Pink, High School Musical (yea, yea, I know!)....All American Rejects.

My DD has discovered Madonna so I have a ton of her songs too.

Mi iPod has a lot of different things....I might have Van Halen followed by Miley Cyrus (yea, yea, I know!) followed by Adam Ant...

I ran my fastest mile EVER listening to Avril Lavigne "Girlfriend"---yeah I had to play it more than once.

That's on my "Treadmill Mix" playlist. Add in some Joan Jett's "Do you wanna Touch", and Pat Benatar's "Warrior" and you get a good pace.

I also have 100 military cadences (great for running), showtunes (love John Barrowman), oldies, country, more country, AC/DC, Taylor Swift, and Prince.

And there are a couple of songs from HSM, and the theme from The Magnificent Seven.

Ok, this is meant to be a spiritual song, but I also find it motivates me.

My tastes run the gammut, but the majority of my music includes:
Cake, Nickelback, Van Halen, Notorious BIG, Enigma, Greenday, Ivan Neville, Fergie, Puddle of Mudd, Linkin Park, TLC, the B-52s, Dave Matthews Band, Blind Mellon.
These all keep me going and helps the time fly by. I also love the free c25k podcasts and language learning ones.
