OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!! i LOVE hot hot heat! their new cd happiness ltd. is not as good as their old ones. i like "make up the breakdown" (the cd), and the cd with "bandages" on it... can't remember... so my favorite songs by them are bandages and i owe you an iou. on their new cd, 5 times out of 100 is pretty good.

refrigeratedrubberbands on 11/17/2007 8:34:10 PM

OMG! i love jet's "are you gonna be my girl"... even tho that's there like most well-known song

refrigeratedrubberbands on 11/17/2007 8:22:36 PM

Jet and Marilyn Manson rock!

headlessfacesonparade on 11/17/2007 7:49:46 PM

I think that Gl should add Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus. It is really easy to get moving when listening to We Got the Party or Nobody's Perfet or GNO(Girl's Night Out). I love her and I am SUCH a big fan!

Kay on 11/17/2007 1:40:27 AM

I love musicals! I always feel energized and ready to take on the world when I listen to "Defying Gravity" from Wicked, with Idina Menzel. I love Idina!

headlessfacesonparade on 11/15/2007 8:48:35 PM

I just listened to Nickelback for the first time in a long time, and "Animals" is fantabulous to dance/work out to.

natalie on 11/13/2007 4:38:56 PM

~Master Passion Greed : Nightwish
~Seven Days to the Wolves : Nightwish
~The Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle : Dethklok
~Tourniquet : Evanescance
~Dedication : Thin Lizzy
~B.Y.O.B. : System of a Down
~Vicinity of Obscenity : System of a Down
~Dance With the Devil : Breaking Benjamin
~Behind Closed Doors : Rise Against
~Prayer of the Refugee : Rise Against
~Hit Me With Your Best Shot : Pat Benatar
~Teenagers : My Chemical Romance
~I'm Not Okay : My Chemical Romance

Yes, I love metal and punk, with a little toss of classic rock in the mix.

headlessfacesonparade on 11/11/2007 4:51:36 PM

I love all of those songs too! I have about 100 sons on my MP3 and they vary form R&b, to pop, to hip hop, to rock and Roll. I love it!

Lgirl on 11/11/2007 4:12:43 PM

the way i am are, by TIMBALAND!!! woot woot!

but i basically like anything with really good beat.

KaTeYdId on 11/11/2007 1:57:26 PM

i personally like:

U + Ur Hand by Pink

and

Lets Dance by Vanessa Ann Hudgens

Alex on 11/11/2007 1:32:44 PM

sandra on 11/10/2007 5:10:27 PM

That actually works! I am energized in the mornings and jumping around! Thanx GL!!

Hollister_Girl on 11/10/2007 1:36:50 PM

I love to sing songs I'm listening to while I exercise. It gives my lungs a good workout, too!

Dancing Queen on 11/10/2007 12:58:59 PM

i weigh 70 pounds and im 12. does anyone think thats underweight?

alicia on 11/9/2007 9:38:48 PM

I love the playlist idea, but could you post some healthy recipies or a tasty energy snack that isn't loaded w/ tofu?

tori on 11/8/2007 5:47:13 PM

One song that really gets me pumped is holla back girl by gwen stefani.

carly on 11/6/2007 7:22:38 PM

I *love* my exercise playlist--tons of Linkin Park mixed with country and rock to help me keep my stride but not have a total burnout. (Personally, I think it's nice to have mainly upbeat stuff mixed with moderate tempos so you're reminded to check yourself.)
A GREAT band for excerising is Train--the tempo is really nice and you can't beat the occasionally insane lyrics. Smile

lizzie on 11/6/2007 12:21:08 AM

gl, please post more workout songs! love it

refrigeratedrubberbands on 11/5/2007 7:49:24 PM

k here's what i think about all the songs:

fergalicious - it's not the most fast-paced song. i don't think it's a very good workout song. it's ok.

toxic - pretty good.

sos - good!

sexyback - no!

dance dance - a good song... but i don't think for dancing! (ironic i know)

rhythm nation - naww. kind of slow and takes a long time to start. but ok.

wind it up - pretty good.

just a girl - YESSS!

hung up - oh please! there are better madonna dancing songs! what about "music", "papa don't preach", "everybody," "borderline", or any of the others... oh well. it's pretty good, but it doesn't get me shakin.

crazy in love - YEAA!!!

lose my breath - actually, this is a really good workout song.

hey ya- YEAA! or should i say YAAAAA!!!

promiscuous - oh please. nooo.

i suggest "ice ice baby"!!!

refrigeratedrubberbands on 11/5/2007 7:46:36 PM

oh! also, "pump it" by the black eyed peas -

SERIOUS!!! that's like the NUMBER ONE SONG that gets me pumped... not even kidding. i bet everyone in the world feels awesome when they listen to that song.

refrigeratedrubberbands on 11/5/2007 7:33:04 PM

hey ya, crazy in love, and just a girl are great workout songs. i love songs you can dance to that are fast-paced! then after i've done a bunch of fast-paced songs, i like to slow it down with slower movements - hence, a slower song.

refrigeratedrubberbands on 11/4/2007 12:50:09 PM

This is really embarrassing, but when i workout, i listen to "Your the Best" by Joe Esposito. Its off the Karate Kid movie if you never heard it.

countrygal on 11/4/2007 10:27:18 AM

I really love to listen to like remixes of songs like slower songs can be energizing if its a remix because they add cool upbeat music.

Cara on 11/3/2007 10:52:48 AM

I like to listen to Rihanna and sometimes Hannah Montana gets me moving

Lee on 11/2/2007 9:33:03 AM

I love listening to music when I work out! It gives me that extra push I need.
