I Got A Feeling is a good workout tune. I am going to check out some of you picks for sure. And thanks for reminding me the the Red Hot Chili Peppers exist. I kind of forgot and I love the songs of theirs that you put on this list!
I just started listening to RHCP again after a long hiatus — a lot of their music is pretty fast.
i love shinedown, good choice! good luck on your weight loss, you look like you are doing awesome!!
I absolutely love Shinedown. They’re coming close to Columbia on Monday and I’m trying to find tickets.
Three Doors Down – Its Not My Time
White Zombie – Electric Head Pt. 1
Rammstein – Asche Zu Asche
Marilyn Manson – The Fight Song
Otherworld – Nobuo Uematsu
Those are my favorite 5 to hear when I’m in my workout.
I’ll have to check out Otherworld, never heard of them.
I got the Otherworld backwards. Otherworld is the song. Nobuo Uematsu is the artist.
Oh. I’ve definitely never heard of them. :)
My workouts are getting longer, so I broke down and bought an MP3 player (I was using my phone and having to charge it every night). I’ll post some of mine here later.
Just passed the 3 month mark and 60lbs lost!
You lost 60 pounds in 3 months? Amazing. I used to use my Google phone too to listen to music, but it’s just too big and it’s not as convenient as an MP3 player.
I would suggest checking out The Riverboat Gamblers they are great for working out IMO also +44 is great music to run to.
Added to my list to download, thanks!
Ok, got my Mp3 player – here are some highlights (actual playlist is 12 hours long so I can just hit shuffle and go):
ACDC – Thunderstruck
Big Head Todd & the Monsters – Boom Boom
Bigod 20 – Like a Prayer (industrial cover of the Madonna song – awesome!)
