When running, what is the one song that is your go-to song? ??

posted 4 months ago | Report

You know, that song when it comes on you feel like you can get through anything?? Your power-up song?

(Can you tell I'm looking for more tunes on my playlist?)

Currently, mine would be:

"One More" - Superchick

If I had to do 2nd and 3rd place, they would be:

"Dog Days Are Over" - Florence + The Machine
"We Run This" - Missy Elliott

    Dog Days makes me run soooooooo fast! And Missy has some of my favorite running songs too.

    Janelle Monae is really great.
    "Come Alive" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxvEn9wNkBQ

    "Without a Fight" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xP9edv-RcA

    DMX really keeps me going too (X Gon' Give it to Ya/Ruff Ryders Anthem/Party Up) but that music might be a little rough for the taste of a lot of people.

    I have so many go-to songs! Right now, my current favorite is "Good Feeling" by Flo-Rida.

    just about anything from Awolnation. Sail is a good stoic one, burn it out is a "get me amped up" one.

    Mine is Stronger, by Mandisa. More because of the words than the beat. That song was playing on repeat the last several miles of my marathon

    i LOVE Dogs Days Are Over as well. Like the others, I have so many different ones ... many that I can't think of right now.

    Bon Jovi' - "We Weren't Born to Follow"
    Cee Lo Green - F*?* You
    Foster the People - Pumped Up Kicks

    Strangely enough, several songs from the Flashdance soundtrack are great running songs for me. My Shuffle probably seems bipolar to most - the music I have loaded on there goes all over the place lol.

    I'm so old-school.

    U2 - I will follow. Is a good one.
    U2 - In God's Country
    U2 - Beautiful Day is another good one.

    Finger Eleven - Paralyzer I do dig that. The beat really rocks.

    There are some really good song suggestions on this thread.. (Picks up paper and pencil)

    Michael... Now I'm going to have to add

    Talking Heads - Burning Down the House from the Stop Making Sense album.

    Gosh, but I can't do that without adding Synchronicity I and II by the Police.
