Get Running Forums

Ever have that one song come on at just the right time and it gives you the crazy energy to run harder or finish stronger? Maybe you have a few or your playlist is set up to feed you the right songs at the right moments? Anyhow, thought this would be a cool topic to hear everyone's top two or three songs that really get their hearts pumping and the energy flowing!

Lets hear em!

Bangarang by Skrillex featuring Sirah. I hear the opening chords and it is ON.

Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple - live version from the "Made in Japan" album. (I know showing my age by using "album")

What a good idea. Great to get some inspiration to update my playlist
My favorites are:
You can't stop the beat - from Hairspray the movie musical
Can you feel it - Michael Jackson
Let me Entertain You - Robbie Williams
Last Dance - Donna Summer

Great topic!
I like "I got my mind set on you" by George Harrison
and "In the Flat Field" by Bauhaus
and "You Might Think" by the Cars
When these come on it gives me more energy to run.

I'm a Skrillex fan, too! Bangarang and Rock n Roll are my favorites for getting through a tough run.
(My first post... )

I have 2 songs that get me going. Outlands by daft punk from the movie Tron legacy and the great 80's classic the final countdown by Europe. Outlands gets me into the zone but final countdown makes me run harder.

The song that actually got me going was "Dog Days are Over" by Florence and the Machine. I am always looking for other ones. So I like the list that people are sharing,

Ok, I started this thread and never posted because its so hard to pick just a few!

E-pro by Beck, Catch Hell Blues by the White Stripes (many songs by them), U-Mass by the Pixies, and thousands more.

Thanks for all the suggestions I haven't heard yet, all. New music to check out

For me it's Annie Lennox and P!nk.
Just picture a slightly overweight woman in her 40's, running i norwegian woods and bellowing P!nk
