    When outside usually don’t listen to anything apart from my own thoughts, which can get pretty weird on a long run.. amazing of the things you can think about when on your own and in the zone on a long run..
    I do wear headphones when on treadmill or turbo trainer though and it would be a mix of everything from old classics to modern pop. I’m not a music snob so will listen to anything.

    Well this thread exploded!! Saw some tunes there that brought back some memories!!Better than the other thread in any case :(

    I'm constantly listening to music when not in a meeting that is. Being a real dance head I've a few long play mixes below for anyone who is into deep or progressive house. These are great for those long easy runs as they tend to just trip away for a couple of hours.

    Lee Burridge – Deep progressive House
    https://soundcloud.com/robot-heart/lee-burridge-robot-heart-10-year-anniversary-burning-man-2017

    DSF – Melodic Deep House
    https://soundcloud.com/alldayidream/all-day-i-dream-podcast-024-dsf

    Guy J – Melodic Techno
    https://soundcloud.com/guy-j/guy-j-july-end-of-lost-cause-mix

    Nu-Disco
    https://soundcloud.com/somethingspaecial/something-spaecial-vol90-by-voju

    For something chunkier try one of the last live sessions by a master Andrew Weatherall
    https://soundcloud.com/dkmntl/andrew-weatherall-at-dekmantel-festival-2019

    For something a bit different
    FleetMac Wood (Because unbelievably Fleetwood Mac can be made better)
    https://soundcloud.com/fleetmacwood/fleetmac-wood-vol-ii-mix-for

    Here is a great playlist by Kelly-Anne Byrne of tunes from "The beat goes on". There is a weekend of listening in it.
    https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2RzdRAcweL020sMxe1DdHs

    Having studiously ignored the request for a single song i'll finish with
    New order Blue Monday

    Great thread.

    Don't listen to music when running, only warming up for a race or before a session.

    A variety of songs.

    I remember stepping out of my hotel in frankfurt before the marathon and Rather Be by clean bandit came on.

    Others that have to be played:
    Roar by Katie Perry.
    The 212,
    Sandstorm by darude.
    A few Sia songs
    A few Luke Kelly songs
    Fiesta by the pouges, went on for seville and has stayed on it.
    The urban cookie collective
    How sweet it is by James Taylor (our wedding song). That's usually last to be played.

    Most recent addition Ecuador by Sash with an shot of espresso and out the DOOR for a session. VOOM

    For recovery runs, I listen to podcast depending on what day I run affects the selection of pod.
    Currently: wind of change - did the CIA Write the song. Can't help singing along to it when it's played.
    Real Dictators
    The Totally Football show and spin offs.
    The High Performance Podcast
    David mc Williams
    The Real Science of Sport

    So, One song only...

    For the specifics of a running playlist I have an answer for that. I have about 400 songs or so on my phone which I occasionally listen to when running. And out of the whole lot one "locks me in" every time and I find my cadence matching the song very obviously and precisely, to the extent that if I try to "unlock" my running feels like it is misfiring. Maybe it just happens to exactly match my LSR cadence, but it has "locked" up to my running when running uphill, downhill, flat, smooth and highly technical. Not a song that would even make a longlist for my favorite song or band, but for the running playlist Chelsea Dagger by The Fratellis it is!

    Another good subject for running music would be best and worst earworm experiences!

    No Limit from 2 Unlimited is one song that gets me going when on a hard interval on the treadmill.
    Cheesy it may be but something about it just gets me moving!
    And of course the real obvious one is Bill Conti and Gotta Fly Now from Rocky, excellent when your struggling towards the end of a set or a Tempo run.
    I’d love to run up those steps in Philly someday!

    Mini discs :D yep. For some reason this thread reminded me of the old radio/tape recorder I had as a teenager (must be TBL's playlist!). I remember pressing record when a song came on and hoping the DJ wouldn't talk over it or cut it short, so many mixed tapes made on that trusty recorder!

    What about a top 5 for each of us instead of just one song??!!!

    The inventor of the cassette tape dies age 94 funny that we were just talking about that..

    Two Months Off - Underworld

    That's the right answer. I previously said anything by Underworld, but if it came to it, it would be between Two Months Off or Dark and Long (Dark Train Mix) as made famous by...

    Together in Electric dreams was one of the first singles I ever bought! Happy memories :) but isn't it Phil Oakey?

    The music nerd in me means I have to point out that it's not the Human League. It's Phil Oakey (HL lead singer) and Georgio Moroder. Gerogio gets a few entries on my list (I Feel Love, with Donna Summer, being the first that springs to mind)

    Nice list... we have a few overlaps!

    It's actually listed on Spotify as The Human League tsk, I still have thy vinyl single :o

    Another interesting take on this, instead of a-ha take on me :D

    What was the last tune you listened to on your last run?
    I luv U Baby: The Original

    And if listening to uptempo playlist for a session do you ever switch it for the cool down?

    I'll add my cheese - guilty pleasure :D:o
    Don't Stop Movin' - S Club 7

    An 80s-90s playlist I threw together at the weekend for something different

    Before you read this I am aware how much of a nerd this list makes me but....:)

    Having read that the ideal running cadence is 180 strides per minute I put the following 180 bpm playlist together. Not all spot on but near 180 or 90 bpm was all that is required to get in:

    https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5g3tnfxxWBvUVRNo6fn2L3?si=bR8AM6BBRGuEQbBrSbZqOg

    Result is that you get a mix of different types of music, some you look forward to - some you cannot wait to finish - but I found it takes my mind off the running and attempts to keep me at 180 strides!!

    Gangsta's Paradise - Coolio
    Running down a dream - Tom Petty
    Message in a bottle - the Police
    Bright side of the Road - Van Morrison
    Jack and Diane - So Far So Good
    In da Club - 50 Cent
    Lose Yourself - Eminem
    Rock and Roll - Led Zeppelin
    The Boys are Back in Town - Thin Lizzy
    The Sign - Ace of Bass
    The Boys of Summer - Don Henley
    Truly Madly Deeply - Savage Garden
    Love is a Battlefield - Pat Benatar
    I'm a believer - The Monkees
    Get ur Freak On - Missy elliot
    The Times they are a CHanging - Bob Dylan
    B Boys Makin with the freak freak - Beastie Boys
    Going UNderground - The Jam
    Stretch out and wait - The Smiths
    Broken Face - Pixies
    Ironic - Alanis Morissette
    Subterranean Homesick Blues - Bob Dylan
    Every Little Thing She Does is Magic - The Police
    Umbrella - Rihanna
    One Call Away - Charlie Puth
    Gold Digger - Kanye
    Yellow - Coldplay

    and more......

    Like you said, a decent beat is the job. Some great songs mentioned earlier, but not necessarily in my view great for keeping a good pacy step.

    A good crossover in tracks on these 2 lists I see, I might rob a few more from above too ðŸ˜
