    Default Music that makes you....WALK

    Inspired by the other thread about music and pumping, what music do you walk to? I'm having a hard time deciding if listening to Sufjan and or Iron and Wine is a good idea.

    So far I've thought of, Thursday, Daft Punk, and that's it.

    No music really makes me want to walk, per say. But there is music that makes good traveling music, whether it be walking, driving, riding on a bus, etc... Will that work? If that's the case I find Dire Straits and Tom Petty to fit the bill nicely.

    Iron & Wine is amazing music. I don't know if it's good walking music, though? xD

    Actually yeah, just the video alone reminds me of walking around.

    Just about anything from Danko Jones. His music makes me feel lazy if I'm sitting down while listening to it.

    The new Weezer album. I stuck it on just before I left you in irc and it was ace.
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    Rap music is the most hyping for me, but if you're not into rap then maybe try

    Dropkick Murphy - I'm Shipping up to Boston

    That song will get your blood pumping =)

    All music!

    I can't just sit and listen to music.

    I have to do something or be moving. It's annoying when the car is going and stopping while I'm listening >.<

    I don't generally walk to music, but something funky like Stayin' Alive is good for getting in the mood for some full-on walkin'.

    I tend to listen to the radio when on the journey to or from work - on the train or walking - so I suppose The Today Programme and PM are what I listen to, but they're not music! I listen to pretty much all the tracks I have on my phone's tiny memory card. So that ranges from Sultans of Swing (Dire Straits), to Holst's Jupiter, Bringer of Jollity and Venus, Bringer of Peace to the Brawl version of Mute City and the piano version of Blue Fields. Yes.
