Music!

We all enjoy music. We all have those special songs that we like to workout to.  We feel as though they give us special powers and we set a personal record every time they are playing at the gym.  So list your current top 5 workout songs and some notes if you feel like it.

I’ll go first:

The Band Marches On by Ghostland Observatory – Just fantastic, imo.

No One Love Me & Neither Do I by Them Crooked Vultures – One of the best live shows

Hey Hey(Crookers Remix) by Dennis Ferrer – Has to be the remix – original is very meh.

Us v Them by LCD Soundsystem – Hearing this live put it very high on my list.

For Whom The Bell Tolls by Metallica – Classic for lifting.

Let’s be honest, once you get into the workout, most people can’t even remember if there was music playing.  However, lets have a little fun here.
