All those are on my list, too, except for the Katy Perry song.

Lots of Paramore songs
Bedrock- Young Money
Lots of Linkin Park songs

Hi Sarah, I'm Sarah too!

I like listening to Royksopp, Robyn, Ratatat (slow for some I guess), Slagsmalsklubben (have fun looking that one up haha!), some Metric, some Loney,Dear, some Polarkreis 18. Ok.. I think my music taste might be a little eclectic but thought I'd pop in with some different suggestions!

Oh, I listen to all kinds of music (except country...I don't really listen to it much anymore)...but I just haven't listened to the Katy Perry song yet.

lol I love this song too! You're right, Hanson definitely has some upbeat songs.

Thanks for all of the suggestions listed... I've added many to my ipod!

right now I have found some older songs that Im totally into, like Run DMC it's tricky is like stuck in my head! can't get it out!!

What an awesome idea for a thread. Everyone's posted some awesome songs, many of which are already on my playlists for the gym. I personally go for a huge mash-up of stuff. Anything that's driving, has a good beat, or can get you pumped... I just slap it all together and sweat baby sweat.

Still a huge fan of all the music I grew up with, y'know.. the 90's rock, R&B, etc. But I never rule out anything interesting.

Eminem - Lose Yourself
Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice
Finger Eleven - Paralyzer
The Fratellis - Flathead / Henrietta
The Futureheads - Struck Dumb (One of my fav. treadmill songs!)
Jimmy Eat World - The entire "Chase this Light" CD
Jurassic 5 - One Two / The Game / Freedom (Great beats)
The Kills - Cheap and Cheerful
M.I.A. - Paper Planes / Galang
Madonna - The entire "Confessions on a Dance Floor" CD


3OH!3
Black Eyed Peas
Lady Gaga
Daft Punk
Shinedown
Seether
The Descendents
Fall Out Boy
So many other things as well... but I won't ramble on for forever.

Me too!!!!

If you are a country fan - Sugarland "settlin" - its always first on my ipod cuz it gives me a real pick me up to get started!

Also I like
Rev Theory - "**** Yeah"
Kid Rock - "So Hott"
Iron Madien - "Run to the Hills"
Some old Backstreet Boys really makes me want to move too!

HAHAH Great suggestions guys!

I'm an old skool hardcore breakbeat junky (techno) so I have TONS of old mixes from all sorts of DJs around the world.

To those that mentioned Daft Punk and Basement Jaxx - you can never go wrong.

I actually heard the song "4th of July" by Kalis today (you know, the girl that did the milkshake song) and it's actually pretty dope. Has a good house beat behind it.

Pink--any of her stuff
Hinder- nothin good about goodbye, get stoned
eminem- lose yourself, i love the way you lie
black eyed peas- imma be
