Workout Playlists
Hey Dumplings!
I'm having a real dilemma: I desperately need new music to listen to when I'm working out, but I don't know what to go for. What do you all listen to? It doesn't have to be genre-specific (since I just went from listening to Nickleback's "Silver Side Up" to M.I.A.'s "Arular" to Lady Sovereign's "Public Warning" to Nickleback's "The State" to the Black Eyed Peas' "Monkey Business" to Theory of a Deadman's self-titled album).
The only requisite is that it's got to be high-energy. None of that boring, slow stuff. That's for the commute in the car.
Watcha got? :]

Otherwise... I really like Britney Spears' new CD... Which is almost shocking. The whole thing is great to jog to. The Black Eyed Peas and Fergie are good, too. (I swear, I don't listen to that stuff on the radio, hehe.) I loooove jogging to Cascada's Everytime We Touch... Ohhh, and this IS a Broadway/musical song, but there are techno/dance versions that are great even if you're not into that... And it's Idina Menzel's Defying Gravity :) (You can find a bunch of different versions on iTunes!)
What are some of your faves now?

I love to listen to Motown stuff when running...Michael Jackson (When he was a child, not loving children...) and the Jackson 5...stuff like that, very high energy.
and sadly a few ABBA songs have made their way onto the ipod, and feature prominently in the playlist.
BUt I rarely use the pod anymore...since I'm not on the T-mill so much...
OMG galindafied, i LOVE Wicked! All of it, really! Especially Defying Gravity!
OK, so my real responce, For cardio, I dig Morningwood - Jetsetter, Nickelback- Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting, and a lot of techno, if you dig techno, I will get some specifics for you, some people don't like it as it's so up beat, it can be kinda spastic...
Good luck in finding new tunes!
I'm a former music major and can't work out at all without music, but it definitely needs to change or I get bored! I've got to have upbeat-keep-me-going music! Here's my current play list:

"Get Low" - Lil' John
"Pump It" - Black Eyed Peas
