What Songs are in your Work Out Playlist?

Post by mini_me »

I have a playlist in mp3 for just about every mood I'm in but I'm getting bored with songs in "workout" folder :( . Can anyone help me with some song ideas? What's in your playlist? I love all kinds of music so name and artist would be great so I know what to look for.


All the Best!

Mimi :wink:

The best sites I use for free, classic MP3, are Seekasong, Drummerworld and Your MP3.

You could get a great playlist from some of the tracks I've downloaded before.


1. Spencer Davis Group - Keep On Runnin'

2. Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze.

3. Steppenwolf - Born To Be Wild.

4. Grand Funk Railroad - We're An American Band.

5. Led Zeppelin - Rock 'N' Roll.

6. Rush - Crossroads.

7. Howling Wolf And Muddy Waters - Rockin Daddy

8. Bad Company - Bad Company

9. Deep Purple - Pictures From Home.

10. ZZ Top - She's Got Legs.

11. Cream - Born Under A Bad Sign.

12. Lovin Spoonful - Summer In The City

That might not be the ideal shuffle for the tracks, but you'll be more than fine with that selection.

Is there some posting issue, or did you mean to quote yourself?

If you have itunes and an ipod i like to go there and search for music that always helps me when i'm looking for something new!

I haven't been listening to music lately but when i do what i have right now on ipod is:

I love to listen to matchbox 20 or Rob Thomas. favorite band and singer!

Need you Now - Lady antebellum

Knocking on heaven's door - guns and roses

Gangster's paradiise - Cooliio

A lot of 80's music I like quite a bit of!

No posting issues...in first post I only listed the artists on playlists. She then asked for the names of the songs to the artists. :D
