The music that gets MY legs move'n! Add yours too...

Since I mentioned this in another post, thought I'd throw it here and hope others will too. It will be fun to see what sorts of music everybody likes.  I don't imagine there's a more "assorted" (for lack of a better term) playlist than this.  I spent HOURS digging up these songs to load onto my iPod a year or so ago.  You'll see that most of them are a good walking beat.  There's a few slower ones (some fav songs) I use for warming up and cooling down. And with the Gospel songs, well, they took the longest because I wanted to find the most upbeat and FUN versions of the songs I wanted.  My sweet mama would laugh seeing Guy and Ralna from The Lawrence Welk Show on here.  It's an inherited thing because we've have little 3yo Wyatt "into" Lawrence on Saturday nights now and he's loved the show since he could stand up and dance.  Actually, he would rock in his bouncy seat when the music started before he could walk.  LOL Do tell what songs make YOUR legs and feet hit the pavement and mooooove...

Thanks for the smiles.

Your iPod has much of the same stuff mine has.  I love Praise Music, country, 50s, 60s & 70s stuff, beach music, jazz, R&B, older Motown, Jimmy Buffett and even Clay Aiken!  Let's get movin.....  Alice

Wendy, Thanks for posting all these songs. I have the hardest time trying to remember what I like! Seeing the names helps me remember! :) I'm downloading some right now!!!!! Thanks again!!!

Welcome!  Have fun downloading... I had a ball when I was searching for old favorites when I got my iPod!

I was just digging back to find this post to copy and send my trainer at the Y.  I was telling her about my Sunday Walking Gospel list and she asked me to send that to her because she's always looking for new songs to play in her water aerobics classes and others too. Since we have some new folks since I posted this, I though I'd bump it it for those folks to see.   As you can see it's quite an "eclectic" mix of music... Would love to see what you others have on your song lists too.  I might see some songs I want to add to my iPod!!
