Suggestions needed for IPOD!

[~~Beth~~ 1]

My husband got me my own IPOD to use at the gym, but I need songs to put on there, any suggestions for upbeat music - I'm not picky on the type / artist. I just want songs that give you that "PUMP".... Anything is better than my 13yr old daughters IPOD.

You know, I always liked listening to music you would hear at a dance club while I worked out. It was very upbeat and it kept me moving, even if I looked as rediculous as Brad Pitt in Burn After Reading.

Try:

Paul Oakenfold

DJ Baby Ann

Vengaboys

On another note... You can find music for much cheaper than apples website. I use www.mp3fiesta.com. You can find songs for .20 or whole albums for a few bucks.

If you do a search on iPod I think there was a post several months ago where a bunch of people shared their playlists. Generally, I like anything with a good beat and a quick tempo to keep me motivated:

Beyonce

Rihanna

Britney Spears

The Ting Tings

Kanye West

Justin Timberlake

Arctic Monkeys

Black Eyed Peas

Madonna

I think its just a matter of personal taste. I like 80's early 90's stuff but have pretty much everything on my mp3 player. whatever will get you going. When I walk the track I listen to kid rock.

[Jachut 487]

Yes, lol, my tastes run to Aussie pub rock, I'm never much help with these threads.

But my advice - BE CAREFUL.

I took DH's ipod for a run a week or two back, becuase mine needed changing. He had The Best of ACDC on his. It darn near killed me. I reckon I ran at 20km per hour, roflmao! The music you choose has a big impact on how hard you work.

[laurie39 0]

Oooh AC/DC would be good too!

hey! luigismama!!! did you steal my ipod??? lol

we have pretty much the same taste in music... I LOVE THE TING TINGS!!!

I like to listen to music that makes me feel like a badass! i like to feel like I own the gym when I work out... I know that sounds stupid... also I listen to songs that express how I wanna feel when I'm skinny... I find Pink has a lot of songs that do this to me... also I love vulgarity... lol so I listen to some female rappers that really get kinda nasty... lol

we should start laying down some good 25 track lists on here... I think I will try and do that either tomorrow or the next day...

Peaches - F*ck the pain away

The Crystal Method - Name of the game
