"Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves. I cannot hear that song and sit still.

Others I like to move to:

"Smooth" by Santana
"Two Princes" by Spin Doctors
and just about anything on NovaMenco's Flight to Paradise album

 

I crossed the finish line at a Half yesterday in less than 1:38 as Joni Mitchell sang on my ipod! No one believes it though... I like it better than some crazy dance music though.

 

"Don't cha" because when my husband I weren't dating but we were uhm flirting more than we should have been it came on when we are the gym together and he grinnnnnnned.

He broke up with his girlfriend not long after that and asked me to marry him.

:

(She has since gone on to find a partner who is a *much better* partner for her so my guilt is less than it used to be.)

 

Well, I'm a Broadway freak, so
"Sing, Sing, Sing" from Fosse
"The B!tch of Living" from Spring Awakening
"Forget About the Boy" from Thoroughly Modern Millie
"Run Freedom Run" from Urinetown

And I also like to listen to Delirious and The Electrics, both Christian groups.

 

I'm kind of all over the place- this is what is on my jogging soundtrack right now for the iPod:

Single Ladies by Beyonce
lots of Arctic Monkeys
The Crane's Wife by the Decemberists
Melody Day by Caribou

I'm scouting for new stuff....

 

WHen I was running, I had Jamiroquai's "Traveling Without Moving" on my iPod. My faves were:
"Cosmic Girl"
"Use the Force" (I'd push myself during this one

)
"Drifting Along"
and
"Traving Without Moving"

Then I'd end on an old Lemonheads album...rockin' out!
