OOOHH! Yes I love the Black Eyed Peas!

Does anyone listen to anything other than upbeat tempos when working out? I am curious by nature!

I tried to listen to a little more mellow music and it totally did not pump me up. I read somewhere that the beat in up-beat music actually tricks your body in to fight or flight mode. Your body perceives the drum beats as a threat and reacts with an adrenaline rush... Whether that is valid or not, I don't know but it works either way!

Gotta have good tunes to work out. Otherwise, I focus on how much I don't want to be doing what I'm doing.

My taste is very eclectic.

Latest download is Katy Perry "Waking Up in Vegas" and "I Kissed a Girl"

The same day, I downloaded The Brian Setzer Orchestra "Dirty Boogie" album.
Wow!! What a butt mover!!

Keep 'em coming people, I am going to have a download party and iTunes will take all my money but it's for the better for my workout.

Thanks for the awesome recommendations, I would love lots more!!!!
