Your Ultimate Kick Butt Hard Cardio Playlist
I have a playlist that I put on when I MEAN BUSINESS for my cardio. It is labeled on my iTunes, in fact, as "Mega Kicka** Cardio".
Mine has: Defying Gravity - Glee Cast (for warmup) Dynamite - Taio Cruz Raise Your Glass - Pink Indiana - Melissa Etheridge We R Who We R - Ke$ha (I know, I have a fair amount of shame) Phantom of the Opera - Me First and the Gimme Gimmes...(they do punk covers, this is off of their Broadway album...the only Broadway I can run to!) Magic - B.o.B Firework - Katy Perry Science Fiction Double Feature - Me First and the Gimme Gimmes Get Over It - The Eagles Misery Business - this is an A Capella version from Best of College A Capella 2010 Yeah! - Usher Thriller - Michael Jackson Love the Way You Lie - Eminem feat. Rhianna (cool down) Do you have a playlist like this? What's on it? |
Ooo, I love yours. I'm going to pirate some of the songs.
I have several - my current favorite has a lot of Tina Turner & Destiny's Child. For some reason Nutbush City Limits & Bootylicious make me want to feel the burn. |
oo love it! right now my faves are:
bottoms up-trey songz just the way you are-bruno marz ice cream paint job-dj durrough and a few others that i cant think of haha |
Wow! I'm going to have to get some of those songs!
My list consists of: Fergie - London bridges, fergiliciois Beyonce- single ladies, diva, upgrade you, get me bodied, check up on it Christina ag- candy man, still dirty, ain't no other man Ray Charles- I got a woman, mess around, night time is the right time Alicia keys- super woman, new york I usually play them on shuffle, but if it's too slow when I'm jogging I skip to the next one! I like to keep pace with the beat of the music..lol! Nice post! Gives me some ideas on new songs to change. My playlist is called Runnin Jams |
Here's some of my faves: keep your head- by ting tings (it's my perfect running song), you shook me all night long- AC/DC, secondhand news- fleetwood mac, baba o'riley- the Who. Maybe I need to listen to more music from my generation. . .

I like poppy-dance music for cardio. I always have Britney Spears' "Break the Ice" programmed for around the middle of my run. It always gets me going again when I start flagging and makes me push a bit hard. It's my favourite pick me up for cardio. But of course Gaga is also standard and other Britney songs too.

Heh.
The more sappy and bubblegum the song, the harder the Gimme Gimmes slam it. :D For the uninitiated: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYNUIMjYJXg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suQKGBeYQX4 |
Strangely enough, a lot of my songs are the same as yours, mandalinn. I should check out some of the Broadway covers, those are right up my alley.
Mine also has some Green Day (mostly from American Idiot). |
My current playlist is a random mix of pop and rock -
Lady Gaga - Bad Romance and Boys, boys, boys FloRida - Club Can't Handle Me Taio Cruz - Break Your Heart and Dynamite Paramore - Ignorance Adam Lambert - If I Had You Ricky Martin - Livin La Vida Loca Nicotine and New Found Glory - punk cover of "Neverending Story" Destiny's Child - Survivor "369" and "Church" from Step Up2 soundtrack 30 Seconds to Mars - Closer to the Edge Katy Perry - Waking Up in Vegas Pink - Centerfold Iron Maiden - Aces High Rise Against - Halfway There and Behind Closed Doors Disturbed - Liberate Coheed and Cambria - Welcome Home Next round, I'm throwing in some Agent Orange :) Oh...and New Found Glory has some punk covers of cinema favorites a la Me First and the Gimme Gimmes |
21 Guns is a GREAT song for me to run to. Forgot about that one!
My favorite Gimme Gimmes song is their rendition of "Rainbow Connection". But I adore the entire Broadway album. I also have the Bad Romance rendition they did on Glee. I used to have the Gaga version, but I think the Glee one has a bit more depth so I replaced it. Also - Fire Burning - Sean Kingston |
I have some of the same as above (Katy Perry, Beyonce); I also have some Mary J. Blige (try "Work That" - power to the ladies!) and random fun songs off movie soundtracks like "Shake your pom pom" (Missy Elliot - booty shaking time!).
My new addition to the running playlist is....The Darkness. I'll admit it. I crank me some British glam rock and boy my feet start flying. Try it! Put "I believe in a thing called love" on your playlist and get ready to book. "Crazy Train" is also good for this. |
I have a few, depending on what musical mood I'm in. I'm all over the board with my tastes, so I never know what's going to motivate me.
I got a new iPod for Xmas, so I was super excited to put together some new playlists. This is what I worked out to this morning (and yes, this is the playlist of a 43-year old woman. Don't judge me!

Pain I Kissed a Girl - Katy Perry Low - Flo Rida My Love - Justin Timberlake Butterfly - Crazy Town Toxic - Britney Spears Tonight I'm Loving (okay, so I have the dirty version, and it's so not "loving") You - Enrique Iglesias For cooling down (I usually shuffle through this and pick one or two songs): Crazy for You - Adele Playground Love - Air Golden Slumbers - Ben Folds Ain't No Sunshine - Bill Withers Better Be Home Soon - Crowded House Delicate - Damien Rice Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley Love - John Lennon The Weight of My Words - Kings of Convenience Mad World - Michael Andrews Turn Me On - Norah Jones Street Spirit (Fade Out) - Radiohead Glitter in the Air - Pink Let It Be Me - Ray LaMontagne Oh, and thank you guys for turning me on to the Gimme Gimmes -- awesome stuff! |
