You know, the one that always makes you pick up your pace, however knackered you are.

I need some new tunes on my running playlist to get my arse motivated in this hideous weather.

I've had a look at my playlist;

Good Charlotte - Lifestyles of the rich and famous.
Iggy Pop - Lust for life
Black Eyed Peas - Rock that body

WhereBeThatBlackbirdTo · 06/01/2014 23:12

Oooh, yes! Iggy Pop - excellent choice

Swedish house mafia - greyhound and antidote
Florida - good feeling
Rudimental - feel the love and not giving in
Evacuate the dance floor
Mansun - wide open space
Taylor swift - trouble ( guilty secret )

Thanks, these suggestions are just what I need!

CrispyCrochet · 07/01/2014 04:37

Young love - disco tech
Metro station - shake it

I tend to like songs that are about 150 beats per minute. Funny enough I googled this once & found a mailing list where they sent you new songs each week that are 150 bpm, I thought that was good for a few weeks to find new songs.

Bastille - Pompeii
David Guetta - Play Hard
Kelly Clarkson - What Doesn't Kill you makes you stronger

Also quite fond of some old school, especially on longer runs -

Ultra Nate - Free
Robert miles - Children
Ce ce Peniston - Finally
N- Trance - Set you free
DJ Quicksilver - Belissima
Fragma - Toca's Miracle

This is great. What better way to spend a crappy morning than faffing around on iTunes.

Let me share my favourites, even though I've grown tired of them

Crazy in Love - Beyonce
Womanizer - Britney
A little less conversation - Elvis (12" Extended Remix Hmm)
Hot'n'Cold - Katy Perry
Can't get you out of my head - Kylie
Hung up - Madonna
I know you want me - Pitbull
Hips don't lie - Shakira
Break your heart - Taio Cruz & Ludicrus
Lola's Theme - Shapeshifters
Pump up the Jam - Technotronic - now I'm really showing my age Blush
DJ got us fallin' in love - Usher

Feel like I have bared my soul now Grin

I can't imagine how many miles I have run to these songs now, they have such strong associations in my head. If I hear them on the radio I start to twitch!

Yes to Foo Fighters - All my life has the lyrics "done, done onto the next one" - which gets me up hills on my run.

Also a-ha Take on me has a great rhythm for me to keep plodding to!

Depeche mode: personal Jesus,
The smiths: big mouth strikes again
The cure: close to me and why can't I be you
