Top 10 workout/running songs??

'llo!
Just wondering what are your favourite songs when it comes to running/working out? Every genre, old school/new school (Princey's included, of course)... Energy!!

I usually run twice a week, and here are my personal favourites :

1)"Planet Rock" - Afrikaa Bambaata
2)"The Pretender" - Foo Fighters
3)"Delirious" - Prince
4)"B.O.B" - OutKast
5)"Bamboo Banga" - M.I.A.
6)"Beat It" - MJ
7)"D.A.N.C.E." - Justice
8)"One More Time" - Daft Punk
9)"Run" - Gnarls Barkley
10) "Blue Orchid" - White Stripes

Love is just like the faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby
It has turned off and gone

Nice choice on the Foo's track.

When i train i like music with agression.

However, in saying that, the one song that makes me wanna run the most is 'dancing in the street' by martha reeves and the vandellas. It reminds me of road running very late one evening in the winter. this song came on the radio and it just made me feel fantastic. It was the best run i ever did. Whenever i hear that song i just wanna start running.

there is something great about running late at night in your sweats with a great soundtrack.

'Nowhere to run' by them is a great running song too. They just have that great tempo.
