    I need to fill my iPod with some new workout songs to help push my morning jog.

    What are your favorites? What motivates you?

    To give you a hint as to my level of denial, today when Nirvana's "Come as you are" came on the radio today, I was all "OOH! Turn it up!!!" I just aged myself big time.

    GET AWAY FROM MY CAR, YOU RABBLE ROUSERS!

    ...and then tell me your favorites. For real, I'm going to look up every one of them on itunes and a good majority of 'em, starting with Madge's "4 Minutes".

    oh thai -- if you dont know about silversun pickups... they sound a lot like old Smashing Pumpkins! (to fit into your 90's thing)

    I LOVE SILVERSUN PICKUPS! Todd, you just earned a spot on my friends list.


    Go! Team has a bunch of upbeat fun songs, my personal favorite is "Huddle Formation"

    I'll help you Thai, because I like you, unlike that mean mean shanut.

    I'll throw something out that I know you haven't heard but it's great for working out or if you just want to plain kill someone with your bare hands.

    Get the entire Toadies Rubberneck album. Here's a link to a few songs from you tube:

    I say Kanye West, "The New Work Out Plan", from The College Dropout album. It will get you moving, esp. when he kicks it into double time!
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by shanut    
    Andy, seriously. Ouch. :(

    Maddie - that song is the best!

    Awwwww my sweet young innocent shanut, I didn't link that song for you, it was for Thai and her grunge listening ass. Now this one, from my dear sweet Amy, I dedicate to you:

    Ok, my workout mix is all over the place..

    I have to agree with Todd anything Killers usually works well. I also throw in a dash of the Foos, a splash of Justin Timberlake, add in some old school culture club yeah thats right, suck it! But Thai there is this one song that I replay over & over and when I fell I cant do another minute my go to song is........
    Find a new way by Young Love, trust me give it a shot. Let me know.

    Well, it was mostly the calling me mean twice. Once I can take... but mean mean?? That just cuts straight to the core!
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by Andy_Winehouse
    Awwwwwww, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

    How about next time I use "big meanie", would that be ok???
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by shanut    
    I can deal with that... wait, is that a fat joke?
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by Andy_Winehouse
    No, that would be "big fat meanie"
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by saucybetty
    Kanye's new workout plan is hi-larious. My guaranteed FABU workout album of 2008 is X by Kylie Minogue. Some of the best dance pop I have ever heard. And yes I am a straight non-transgendered female.
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by musie
    Not that I work out, but during the blue means that i exercise-any upbeat No Doubt, Pump It and "Let's Get Retarded" by black eyed peas is good. a couple most people have never heard of but i heart is "Jerk" and "Nasty Ho" by Neurotic Outisders really pump me up. If I would ever get my fat white butt out to exercise, I would have more for you, so I'll be sure to make a note of them when there's another blue moon. Oh wait one more, "I like Big Butts" by Sir Mix A Lot. that moitivates me too! :)

    but don't you agree..awesome tempo and fun lyrics to work out to!!
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by MollWillGiveYaTerribleThrills
    Yeah Thai, that list I sent you isnt so much my workout list as much is it my sit on the couch playlist and think about why I should work out.

    Perhaps you can do theme day playlists. Monday: Bad 80's and start your list out with Manic Monday; etc.
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by whenshebegins
    It is awesome...and it gets stuck in my head everytime I hear it.

    YOU!!!! I wanna take you to the gay bar........
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by MollWillGiveYaTerribleThrills
    So, I am a total music slut and I had to DL Gay Bar. I kinda wanna get on up and bust a move.
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by zknows    
    I wanna take you to the gay.... bar gay bar gay bar

    Thai, you don't know what you're missing!!
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by zknows    
    and Moll...it's okay to have a sit on the couch playlist...you teach therefore you can sit.
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by MollWillGiveYaTerribleThrills
    I've listened to it 3 times. I kinda wanna go surfing at a gay bar now.

    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by Thai    
    Thank you guys so much! Keep 'em coming, if you feel like it! I LOVE your suggestions. LOVE THEM!!!

    Molldoll also sent me a huge list that made me wonder if we were separated at birth.

    silverspun pickup... I hadn't heard of them, but love them.

    Gay Bar... Hilarious. We watched the video on YouTube, and I don't know which was more funny, the video itself or my prudish husband cringing and shifting in his seat at the hamster. Ha!

    Back to looking up your suggestions...
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by MollWillGiveYaTerribleThrills
    What Thai, you were feeling my playlist? Feelin my timbs, my baggy jeans, my thug appeal?
  • #  
    Posted April 22nd, 2008 by Thai    
    That's right.

    I like your guts and I cannot lie. You otha brothas can't deny, when Molldoll walks in with her rocking playlist and her clever wit in yo face, you get sprung!
  • #  
    Posted April 23rd, 2008 by MexiRicanDiva
    Um, I don't even know what half these playlists these are. Once I read grunge, I just kept scrolling.

    I tend to go ghetto. When I am running I like to play Eminem's "Lose Yourself" and of course "The Workout Plan." and Kanye Wests "Stronger" from the latest album.
  • #  
    Posted April 23rd, 2008 by Galiza
    Damn you musical geniuses! The only song I can add is Pit Bull's "Da Anthem"
  • #  
    Posted April 23rd, 2008 by MexiRicanDiva
    Oooo, or Pit Bull's "Shake" But then I start dancing instead of working out, and people look at me weird. On second though, you may want to skip that one Thai.
  • #  
    Posted April 23rd, 2008 by TonIsntGayShesBILIARIOUS    
    Well when I THINK about working out, which is never, here are some of the songs on my "Toni doesn't work out, but has a workout" playlist:

    It's my life- no doubt
    holiday- greenday
    the entire new danity kane album
    feedback- janet jackson
    gimme more by our beloved Brit Brit

    *digging out my ipod just for Thai*

    I notice a lot more pop and rock, fast beats, less r&b and sappy shyt. JT, Jay Z, Kanye (definitely Stronger), Metallica, Bon Jovi, the killers, AFI, weezer, etc

  • #  
    Posted April 23rd, 2008 by MexiRicanDiva
    And the girl singing "in my motha***** mouthhhh"? I was thinking of that song, but it's not exactly workout for me. Unless of course, workout is sex as molldoll stated.

    Posted April 23rd, 2008 by sussdoespaigedrag
    OK thai now I must tell you some
    since you love fags try any song by the super cool Swedish duo Junior/Senior
    any upbeat song from OK GO will work
    Electric Six (from my town) Danger Danger High Voltage with Jack White
    Under Pressure with David Bowie and Freddy Mercury
    Any Gwen song where she says "wind it up"
    The Gravy Train-hilarious shit- and they have a song called "You made me gay"
    Peaches--it'll make you happy and horny
  • #  
    Posted April 23rd, 2008 by MollWillGiveYaTerribleThrills
