Hard this morning, but I maintain that this song is the best running song of all time - makes me feel like I'm in a montage.

Rebel Yell - Billy Idol

I'm running with a 150 bpm playlist. Fight for your Right is in there. Sabotage is too, but seems a bit quick. Looking it up Body Movin' is apparently about 100.

I'm going back a little but whenever this gets played on the radio I crank it up, just makes me feel good.

Eye Of The Tiger was created as the theme song to Rocky III because Queen wouldn’t allow Sylvester Stallone to use Another One Bites The Dust.

Interesting article.

When I first bought my car, a guy at the dealership made me a mp3 to play on the way home. It was full of pop shit but Eye Of The Tiger was hidden amongst them. I put it on repeat the whole way home. I had a new appreciation for that song.

100bpm is CPR IIRC.
