Workin' up a sweat!

 I'll be the first to admit; I don't like working out. It isn't fun for me, but I want to get in better shape, so I started a playlist on my iPod called "Schweatin'" to make my workouts go faster and also to make them more tolerable. Plus, whenever I hear these songs, they make me want to boogie (woogie?) down, so I can't help but pick up the pace! Bear in mind, this is a partial list. If I posted the whole thing, it would take up way too much space! These are just some of my favorites.

Goody Two Shoes - Adam Ant - this song is just plain fun!

Super Rad - The Aquabats - this one is super bouncy! Great for the eliptical machine!

Satisfaction - Ben Benassi - this song was used in a Burger King commercial a few years ago (irony?) and a lot of people find it very annoying and repetitive, but I love it!

I Feel Love - The Blue Man Group - I love the Blue Man Group! I've always been a fan of percussion. This is a remake of the Donna Summer song.

Jerk It Out - The Caesers - this was used in an iPod commercial a few years ago. Kinda rockin', kinda pop, all awesome.

Rebel Rebel - David Bowie - Bowie is awesome. I have a few of his songs in this playlist.

Bodies - Drowning Pool - this song was used in the Rambo trailers recently. A hard rock song to get out that aggressive energy!

September - Earth, Wind and Fire - this song just makes me want to dance!

Let the Poison Spill From Your Throat - The Faint - one of my favorite bands. This song is amazingly fun and catchy.

Do You Want To? - Franz Ferdinand - A lot of their songs are good workout songs, but this one is my favorite. The best description I can give it is "boppy".

Suicide Blonde - INXS - this isn't the fastest song, but it's still really fun to work out to.

Sexyback - Justin Timberlake - my dirty little secret

Rip the System! - KMFDM - another heavier dance tune.

You Really Got Me - The Kinks - oh yeah! I wish this one was longer.

Trials and Tribulations - LCD Soundsystem - another dancy one

Carouselambra - Led Zeppelin - a nice long song for the cardio!

Master of Puppets - Metallica - RAWR!

Workin' Day and Night - Michael Jackson - Michael Jackson used to be great.

Gave Up (remix) - Nine Inch Nails - starts off a little slow, but when it kicks in...oh man!

Canary in a Coalmine - The Police - 2:29 of awesome.

There you have it...twenty of the best workout songs. For me at least.
