What's the Girliest Music You Lift to?

I’m all about Lady Gaga. I still dont’t know if she’s actually hot or not though. She’s always so decked out in crazy fashion you never get to see her face.

I wouldn’t call Portishead girly, and besides they’re good.

A few things: Journey does NOT rock … even if you were kidding no one should EVER make the mistake of professing their admiration for Journey. They fucking blow goats.

Classical Music is not ghey. Beethoven’s Ninth is one of the greatest compositions ever created by a human being. I’ve lifted to Beethoven’s Ninth and Fifth before and have performed well while doing so. I also study with Mozart, Handel and Bach playing the background.

I’ve lifted to Jackson 5 before. Mostly I Want You Back. Also, Jack Johnson and John Mayer. I know I know, pretty bad, but I kind of piggy back on what someone else said earlier about getting sick of listening to Slipknot, Wu Tang, Nas, RATM etc…Also, I listened to Tiny Dancer once when I first started lifting. I had just watched Almost Famous the night before and it was stuck in my head…

The Gathering - Monsters

Not purposeful but in my garage gym my CD player was not working a few months back and it seemed like everytime I was in the middle of some max effort work, Beyonce’s Put a Ring On It would come on. It passed without notice more than a few times (I’m focused, or distracted, who knows?), until one time I’m like “what the eff, are you kidding me”, “how can I get ornery with this ish playing”. Once I noticed it, it was a distraction EVERY time - and it was in HEAVY rotation at the time which meant hearing it at least once per session. Shoot me. God help me if I was tapping my foot to the beat, kill me slow.

Gold’s Gym radio network FTW…wait…actually For The Loss. :frowning:

Phil Collins/Genesis

Dude, I’ve totally rocked out to some kelly clarkson, kerri hilson and beyonce.

But fuck, Kelly Clarkson is the shit. She’s that girl with that music that you love, but rock out to it in your car with your window up so no one else sees you rocking out to kelly clarkson. Or better yet, turn your ipod down low so no one hear’s you rocking out to her in the gym.

You know you do it to.

Shakira - She Wolf Ah-Woo!

That Teenage Dirtbag song used to get me pumped…also…Queen is not exactly girly, but major Teh Ghey and I listen to them a lot…

I like to listen to music with a good beat not so much the lyrics

Girlicious- Stupid shit
Beyoncé - Single Ladies
Pussy Cat Dolls - When I grow up

I shit you not, I just like the beat…

Runs away fast

Portishead-NOt girly, good geniune music.

Air

Rilo Kiley

MAdonna

Zero 7 my fav

Sarah Mchlaclan

Sheryl Crowe

I’m going through an adult alternative phase.

How about Fade Into You by Mazzy Star? I used to listen to that song all the time while I was lifting, but I kept crying in the middle of sets and lying on the floor with my hands over my face during it, so I had to stop.

Cyndi Lauper - Girls just want to have fun

hangs head in shame and disbelief to admitting it

Enya. It speaks to my gentle celtic soul.

LOL! Well, I also listen to Metallica, Audioslave, Avenged Sevenfold, etc… if that helps… Cyndi Lauper just gets me pumped up to start my workout ha ha


Someone mentioned P Diddy, and someone else mentioned Bjork… so I thought this was appropriate here. lol

There’s been enough people disgracing Jersey for a long time to overshadow ranger donning a rainbow belly shirt with hip hugger jeans dancing in the street listening to Cyndi Lauper’s Girls Just wanna have fun…
