Thanks so much, Davide!  I love Tracy Chapman.  A lot of the songs you recommend bring back memories! 

I will have to look up the first three...I don't think I heard those before.  Well - I'm going to get to steppin'!  😉

Thanks, again!

I have a playlist for walking (usually I work out to videos that already have music). My taste in music is what you might call eclectic, maybe even a bit esoteric. Some of the songs are:

"Minority" by Green Day

"Bitter" by Lush (because it has a great drum line that's perfect for walking)

"Great DJ" by the Ting Tings

"Traffic and Weather" by Fountains of Wayne

"Heads Will Roll" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs

"The Art of Losing" by American Hi Fi

"Hell" and "Superstar" by Tegan and Sara

"A Change Would Do You Good" by Sheryl Crow

"Everglade" by L7

"Blue Skies" by BT and Tori Amos

It needs to rock and it needs to be loud.

Rage Against the Machine

Pearl Jam

GNR

Nirvana

Black Flag

I prefer to run to my natural rhythm.

I like to hear my feet striking the ground. I like to hear my breath. I like to hear the sounds of nature around me.

And as I'm mostly a road runner, I like to be able to hear the traffic around me. Safety first!
