Tell me your top 5 running songs

[Sunshineonsea]

So I've gone and bought all the gear today, but need seem some good songs to run to
I like house and hip hop but will listen to anything really
Inspire me

This is war & kings and queens, both 30 seconds to mars.
Anything pendulum or chase and status.
Most rock music for the strong beat.

I have got Calvin Harris' latest and the Swedish House Mafia albumn on a loop at the moment, depending on whether I'm feeling like a cheerful bouncy run or an angry, pounding the pavements run!

I like the continuous mix versions of the album so I don't notice when one song stops and then think about stopping myself!

Giong to check some of these suggestions out too.

Oasis - The Hindu Times, Supersonic, Columbia
Madonna - I'm Addicted, Jump
Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy Hey Girl
Supergrass - Tales of Endurance
Stereo MCs - Connected

These songs generally keep me perked up (more than 5 though....)

Kasabian - most songs, particularly underdog
Prodigy
Pendulum
Rudimental - not giving in (and others)
Pussycat dolls - jai ho

Bohemian like you - The Dandy Warhols !!!!

Death in Vegas - Aisha. Quite alarming, makes me run really fast if it's dark!
Stronger - Kanye West. I defy anyone not to hear this and want to go faster.
There's a great song called Heat Lightning by Icky Blossoms which I hadn't heard until a friend made me a running playlist which gets me moving.

Agree with Chemical Brothers, Swedish House Mafia and Calvin Harris though I'm not usually a dance music fan.

DJ Fresh - Gold Dust, Hot Right Now and Louder
Example - Kickstarts and Changed the Way You Kiss Me
Calvin Harris - Feel so Close
Dizzee Rascal - Dirty Disco and Going Crazy
Muse - Knights of Cydonia
The Libertines - I Get Along
Arctic Monkeys - I Bet That You Look Good on the Dancefloor
Skrillex - Kill Everybody
Kanye West - Stronger
Black Eyed Peas - I Got A Feeling and Pump It

I have now downloaded a whole load of new tracks. Almost looking forward to my next run so I can try them out. Will report back.

So I've only listened to some of these tracks while runng but so far so good
I shall add
Calvin Harris ft Neyo - lets go
MSTRKRFT ft John legend - heartbreaker
Fish go deep - the cure and the cause

Feel free to add more than 5 if you have some good ones and thank you for all the songs you've suggested so far

BB01 - have you got Example perfect replacement too? It's also brilliant for running!

I'll give you some more

Bastille - Pompeii
Tinie Tempah - Miami to Ibiza
Mikill Pane - I can feel it
The Vaccines - if you wanna
Rihanna - only girl in the world

Oh my I managed to download the unedited version of Talk Dirty

Killers various tracks
Stereophonics lots
Johnny cash
stone roses
oasis she's electric

Cheating as it's a whole album but: Daft Punk Live (album) - it's like a runner's secret weapon!
Calvin Harris: I Get All The Girls
R Kelly: World's Greatest
Empire of the Sun: We Are The People
Arctic Monkeys: R U Mine

I've done four half marathons and these are the ones that got me going! Good luck!

Groove Armada feat Gramma Funk: I See You Baby (Fatboy Slim Radio Edit)

Mumra, no, will look for it! Also love those Tinie and Rihanna tracks to run to

Current faves for running-

Rihanna - We Found Love
Pussycat Dolls - Jai Ho
Armand Van Haldon - You Don't Know Me
Lily Allen - Hard Out Here

I love Chelsea Dagger by the Fratellis. Best ever running song!

I like a bit of Pink / Black Eyed Peas / Blur / Pulp / Justin T. My taste is a bit random.
