Running Music

[Tipsy]

I'm getting tired of the music I listen to while I run and was looking for suggestions for music. The music doesn't necessarily have to be all that good, just something one could exercise to. Thanks.

[Gimmi]

Rob Dougan - Clubbed to Death
Survivor - Eye of the Tiger
Bill Conti - Gonna Fly Now
Carl Orff - O fortuna
Andre Nickatina - Ayo For Yayo

[OldSnakeWontDie]

MGMT - Oracular Spectacular Album

[Jim Morrison]

three 6 mafia

[The Professor]

Any 'mixtape' style cd (*not mixtape where htey steal commercial beats, but mixtape where it all just flows into 1 solid CD*) works for me when I'm out biking. I'll just throw some kinda CD like that on my iPod and an hour later I'm 10-15 miles out of my house, toss another cd on and head on home.

What makes you run, mr. Tipsy?

[Tipsy]

Thanks for the suggestions so far. What I've been looking for is bands and/or albums. I'll start using some of this music tonight.

There really isn't much of a reason other than I just enjoy it. I ran with someone at school a few times and then started doing it on my own, and have kept it up for like a year now.

Hm well my sugguestion is to try to find somthing that motivates you. I like to listen to Rock and some heavy stuff. It motivates me to keep going and not stop. granted it is good to stop and catch your breath but I like to push myself when I run.

That sounds like something I'd use; any suggestions (album and/or band)?

I tend to put latin style music whenever I draw. It somehow makes me draw like a maniac.

I don't run with music. I usually run with two or three other friends (That's kinda the reason i'm doing it anyway). Just started actually, been doing it for about three weeks, and oh my gosh, it feels so good after.

[Speedy]

Any Busta Rhymes song. Or if you're from DC then listen to some GOGO.

[Vadriel]

I enjoy pumping up some Static-X to keep going. Wisconsin Death Trip is a pretty good album, and songs like Push It and I'm With Stupid are great for keeping the blood flowing while you're already active.

Some Metallica can be good for that too, like Through the Never and Don't Tread on Me. In general, the Black album is just some of Metallica's best IMO.

When I feel like mixing it up, I go black with stuff like:

Trick Daddy - Let's Go
Yin Yang Twins - Say Ay Yi Yi
Pitbull - Bojangles
Lil Jon and the East Side Boys - Get Low, Salt Shaker

That kinda crap...mostly fast-paced, active music. I also listen to some of the speedier tracks on the Devil May Cry 1 and 3 soundtracks, like Public Enemy, Flock Off!, Psycho Siren, Geryon Battle, Vergil 2 Battle, Doppelganger Battle, etc. If I can find my flippin iPod transfer cord, I'll add The Time Has Come from the DMC4 soundtrack.

But yeah...I have kind of sad taste in music, even if it is diverse. Not all of that will probably suit you, but it's what keeps my blood going during my runs.

you really needed someone to tell you that "motivational music" is what you should listen to while working out?
maybe the music isn't your problem. here's my suggestion, eat "power food." or "energy meals."

I use it as a distraction, not a motivational factor. It's just a matter of some songs not being fit for use while running.

Ya listen to those ****ty bands. But put the headphones behind your ears so the music is coming from behind you. That'll keep anybody running. Kindof like an inverted twinkie-on-a-string trick, but for people who like suffering
