Here's what I have on my iPod for the current workout playlist. I've been using it for awhile and haven't gotten bored yet (I think I could listen to Breakfast Club about three times in a row--it's about getting up to watch Saturday morning cartoons and eating cereal back in the day--just a really fun hip hop song that I highly recommend). Some are songs I'm vaguely ashamed that I have, but it's a workout mix so...
