3 Songs With Definite BPM -- I Need More Suggestions

[normandy]

I'm trying to make up a playlist with definite and pronounced beats per minute for my outdoor walks, and so far I found 3 songs:

Maroon 5: Moves Like Jagger - 128 BPM
LMFAO: Party Rock Anthem - 130 BPM
Michael Jackson: Beat It - 139 BPM

Any of you know of others like this, or know of sites where the BPM is listed? I know Collage has thngs like this, but they are take-offs, and not the actual artists. I especially love the Maroon 5 song.

TIA!

Hi,

here's a site I like to use often to get some ideas

http://walk.jog.fm/workout-songs/for/17:00/minute-miles

I already put in your approximate bpm but you can change that

I like to go to Yes Fitness Music, search for songs by BPM, and then go download the original songs on iTunes.

I highly recommend jog.fm. They have great playlists to choose from, too! I also have Spotify and the two work really well together. You just hit the "copy and paste" button and paste it into Spotify, and it is instantly loaded to Spotify.

Bold Pace running blog is an excellent blog. This guy is definitely gifted when it comes to choosing music. He always list the bpms and pace per mile.

Podrunner is a free podcast you can download from iTunes. They have a huge range of steady-state BPMs as well as some that gradually get faster and then slow for a cool-down. They are mostly techno and, since it is free, no real "hit" music that you've ever heard of, but great to zone out to.

Dynamix and Power Music have some great CDs and even though the songs are not by the original artists, they are pretty good. (There are a few songs I like BETTER than the original artists.)

Is Spotify free? Thanks!

There is a free version of Spotify. I believe you just can't play the songs offline, so you're limited to either your wi-fi or using your data plan. I think you can also try it for free.

I used to use Rhapsody but the music started stopping during my walks and runs. Rhapsody just couldn't seem to fix it. A lot of people cancelled their subscription and went to Spotify. It's also cheaper than Rhapsody.

Thanks for the info, Debbie!
