What's on your iPod?

**Medianox** · 08-25-2009, 12:02 PM

I have a wierd mix of stuff but my favorite songs (One earbud in, low volume, on the bike path only and never in traffic) are:
Steppenwolf: Born to be Wild
Dropkick Murphys: Amazing Gracehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip-CO...eature=related
Earth, Wind and Fire: Fantasy
Santana: Smooth
Sisters of Mercy: Dominion
Marilyn Manson: Dope Show
Nine Inch Nails: The Hand that Feeds
There is also a bunch of miscellaneous stuff like, ELO, Nirvana, some Arabic belly dancing music, some Irish folk music, Peanutbutter Jelly Time (lol)...
but my favorite track for flat out riding is a Pirates of the Caribbean Dance mix-it gets me going!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5Pi6zpz_Oo

Guess I'm pretty addicted to salsa, African and Asian dancehall stuff, reggae.

I love folk music from anywhere in the world and find it really energizing too. =)

I feel really out of touch! I should listen to the radio more... I usually park it on the classic rock station or NPR. Not learning any new music there!

Here's my "running" playlist:
Rocky Horror Picture Show
Woman -- Wolfmother
Jump -- Loverboy
Rosalita - Bruce Springsteen
I've Been Working Too Hard -- Southside Johnny
Mas Tequila --- Sammy Hagar
Devil Inside -- INXS
Dead Man's Party -- Oingo Boingo
Love 4 Sale -- Bon Jovi
Don't Tell Me You Love Me -- Night Ranger
Let's Get it Started - Black Eyed Peas
Everybody Wants You -- Billy Squier
Rock and Roll All Night -- Kiss
Light it On Fire -- Cowboy Mouth
Talk Dirty To Me -- Poison
Bank Robber Man -- Lenny Kravitz
VooDoo Thing -- Colin James
A Little Less Conversation -- Elvis Presley

I tend to be an 80's Rocker Girl!
But I CAN branch out -- I just have to be exposed. I'm taking a listen to some that you all have posted! THANKS!

The main demographic for radio these days is males 50+. Plus unless you're in one of the 4-5 largest cities in the country, it's all syndicated anyway. Not going to hear any new music on the radio anyways. Unless you mean web radio.

I get most of my new music from reading actually, in B*tch magazine (hate having to star that title out, but the forum software makes me

) or in the news, occasionally on small label websites. If I like what I read, I'll listen to some clips, and if I like what I hear, I'll buy an album. Or sometimes I'll go to B&N (yeah, I know, best we've got around here) and listen to what they've got on display. On rare occasions the iTunes free song of the week is good enough for me to pursue more from the artist. But that's pretty rare.

I'm mainly listen to Disturbed, Korn, Mudvayne, Linkin Park, System of a Down, Mili Vanili and don't forget ol' blue eyes Frank Sinatra. I know, Mili Vanili? Don't ask me why!!!

**malkin** · 10-04-2009, 02:18 PM

Alan Watts
Waiting for Godot
Fairy tales in French (which I sort of understand)
news broadcasts in German (which I don't understand ((yet)))

**azfiddle** · 10-04-2009, 02:25 PM

My ipod music is pretty much all Irish trad... lots of fiddle especially. Not very mainstream....

**malkin** · 10-04-2009, 02:29 PM

Like Alan Watts and Waiting for Godot are mainstream?
Where is that stream?

**Trek420** · 10-04-2009, 06:41 PM

Mostly podcasts. Mostly listening to Kelownagirl Tri's podcasts (yes, TE's own KG

). Even though I have not done a Tri they are great info about training and very entertaining.
