Your Favorite Workout Tunes?

The only time I listen to tunes is on my runs. It's amazing how some songs can get the endorphins pumping. And they're not necessarily tunes I previously particularly liked. There's just something about them. It's made a huge difference in my running.

Some that work really well for me are:

Thunderstruck-ACDC
In the Dark-Billy Squier
Smokin'-Boston
One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer-George Thorogood & The Destroyers
All Apologies-Nirvana
Canary In a Coalmine-The Police
Snow (Hey Oh)-Red Hot Chili Peppers
Too Much Time On My Hands-Styx
Vertigo-U2

Share which ones work for you.

Usually anything fast paced!!!. I listen to classical, rock, bluegrass, pretty much anything but rap. I have about 200 GB of MP3 files, so I change it often.

i never got into music while running, i'd much rather listen to my breathing, and everything around me.
