I agree with Adrienne. I need a really, hard, fast beat, song or I'll be walking home in no time.

these songs are kind of old aren't they? I like Keane but that isn't a good running song. There are several great songs to run to on the new Swell Season cd called Strict Joy. (The Rain, High Horses, The Verb). Swell Season are the Oscar winning songwriters & stars of the film called Once.

While I appreciate that everyone has different tastes in music - this really just goes to illustrate that point. I couldn't imagine running to any one of these songs.
