And now we have something special to share with you. You all know that we are running Rock N Roll Las Vegas next month, and it was recently announced that Chromeo was going to be one of the acts performing. As part of the Rock'n blog team, we were given a free download of his song "Come Alive". We are not big fans of Chromeo but we would be happy to pass along this free download so you can enjoy it on your playlist. You can get your free download HERE.

Have you found some of your favorites on our list? Are there some songs you hadn't heard of?
Love the playlist! I do like the dance tracks that really keep me moving. Titanium is one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteI love how you broke up your list into categories. I really like Burn and Dynamite. Macklemore is usually good as well :)
ReplyDeleteWell there were too many good ones to chose from. That's why we chose to categorize it.
DeleteGreat songs! I haven't been running with music but I will need to listen to these before I run tomorrow to get me excited!
ReplyDeleteReally? Wow! I cannot get through my run without music. Unless I am running with someone else that it.
DeleteThis is perfect timing! I was wondering what to add to my running playlist. Going to give some of these a go :)
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I don't run with music, but I need some new music in my life.
ReplyDeleteThese are great songs to listen to even if you aren't running:)
DeleteLove how you broke it out. Some great ideas, thanks!
ReplyDeleteYep. Different songs for different moods.
DeleteGreat song suggestions I need to update my playlist!
ReplyDeleteEverytime I hear a new song I feel like I want to update mine too.
DeleteTo prove how much I'm not up to date in music, I've heard of one of those songs, Mississippi Girl, and it isn't really new either :-p
ReplyDeleteI know. That is such an old one but it still makes me smile each time I hear it!
DeleteGREAT LISTS!!!! Thanks so much for posting so many awesome tunes. I'll have to mark these for later.
ReplyDeletehave a great weekend.
Far From Over by Frank Stallone (even better if you've watched the movie Stayin' Alive with John Travolta dancing).
ReplyDeleteJill C.
I have never seen that movie
DeleteI don't think I listen to anything on that list other than Dixie Chicks but I do love Chromeo and was listening to them earlier :)
ReplyDeleteLove the long list of great tunes. I will be sure to check these out for adding to my playlists.
ReplyDeleteOh, my gosh! So many ideas! Thank you so much for sharing this great list; I have already added some new ones to my Spotify account! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeletesince i don't run with music anymore, songs have to be extra awesome to stay stuck in my head while running. roar is definitely one of those songs that i'll sing to myself while on the run!
ReplyDeleteSame here. Heck sometimes I find myself singing it when it's not even playing...haha
DeleteGreat list! I have quite a few of those on my running playlists.
ReplyDeleteGreat list! Some of it I've never heard but will check them out. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteGreat list, ladies! I'll be working on updating my playlist in the next week or so, and will definitely be referencing your thorough list!
ReplyDeleteAwesome list! I have many on my running playlist and going to add a few. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you divided it up. There ARE some songs that keep you running and then some songs that make you feel like a champ FOR running!
ReplyDeleteI love how you divided these up too! So many of those songs have been my running songs over the years - especially "Dynamite" and "22" - "we run the night" as well! all really good pump-up songs to keep you going when you really need it :) Lately I've been running to "All the Way" by Timeflies and "Shut Up and Dance" by Walk the Moon. Check them out!
ReplyDeleteNever heard of those. Will do. Thanks!
DeleteVery awesome list, your music taste is quite similar to mine, I have almost all of these on my playlists. Nothing better than great music to run to, or get your day going!!!
ReplyDeleteYes I agree!
DeleteAll fantastic picks!! Some new ones for me too!
ReplyDeleteSuch a detailed list!
ReplyDeleteYES for Nicole Norderman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love her!
She has been one of my favorites for years! -M
DeleteSo many songs to look into! I have a couple of these on my list but there are a bunch I haven't heard yet. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI love seeing what people listen to on their runs, sometimes I get inspired :)
ReplyDeleteSame here! I can't believe some can run without music. To each their own:)
DeleteLots of great songs! I was needing more music for my Wine and Dine half playlist. These should keep me going!!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of any of those except Dynamite and Roar hehe. I don't listen to popular music.
ReplyDeleteYes they are popular and are played on most stations but I can understand you probably wouldn't if you don't listen to radio much
DeleteGreat song lists!!! Good luck with your long runs this weekend :D
ReplyDeleteThanks! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great collection! You've reminded me of some songs I probably have buried in my library that I need to whip out again :)
ReplyDeleteI have a few songs that end up going on repeat for a little while when I'm on the 'mill :-) Good luck with your long runs this weekend!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I like fast and/or "silly" songs for my playlists. I like the Chormeo song. ;-)
ReplyDeleteGreat play list girls but I have never heard of Chormeo? Ok, now I am feeling old, am I missing something?
ReplyDeleteI love how you organized this Friday Five! Such a great list - I'm going to have to make a playlist now :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing so many songs! Can't wait to add a few of these to my playlist :)
