I've always been a little embarrased by my choices of music. The people I know IRL don't like what I like, but since I have relative annonymity, here is my list, cut and pasted for you. I run on the treadmill and find a few of these songs on youtube and watch/listen to them on my ipad while I run.

 

Imagine dragons, Radioactive

Secret, the pierces

Beds are burning, midnight oil

Bright eyes

Pink fun, we can learn to love again

Thriftshop

Ny2la

Hope it gives you hell

Skyfall

Love stinks

I belong with you, you belong with me

I hate myself for loving you

Crack the sky: hot razors, skin deep, all american boy

I'm reading a book

That's what makes her beautiful

Blah blah blah

Gangnam style

Blow my whistle

Dont bring me down

500 miles

The kinks low budget

Genesis that's all

teenage dirtbag, wheatus

Sweet dreams

Ace of base, don't turn around

I love you like a love song

Pearl jam, last kiss

You spin me right round

Goyte, somebody that i used to know

If you're interested in keeping your music at a certain bpm to keep your pace up, I like jog.fm for their lists.

 

One of my favorite songs is "Shaking the Tree" by Peter Gabriel--the live version. It's a long song, motivating, and around 160 bpm (which is perfect for me.) I also like Dire Straits' "Sultans of Swing" and Sting's "Mad About You."
