Tunage

That is a pretty sweet leaf you might say.

Hokay, so, here are some songs that I think are pretty flippin meritorious

(I put outstanding in the synonym finder) for finishing your run. Most of them build up into awesomeness which is then distilled into pure kick-ass.

Led Zeppelin- Stairway to Heaven

ACDC- Son of a Bitch

Balmorhea - Settler

Balmorhea- Truth

Now there's something to be said here about Truth. this song bu

ilds and builds and when you get to the end everything seems to disappear, and you're just running through oblivion. Everything gathers around you, and then shoots into you and now you're back and you are just burning the ground behind you, you're fast and unstoppable and you're flying. The low keys are thrumming in your ears and you can feel your core being pulled forward with the crashing piano. This, is a great song.

Sigur Rios - Med Sud I Eyrum

Christopher Tin and Stanford Talisman - Baba Yetu

Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori - Halo

Randy Edelman - I Will Find You (Last of the Mohicans)

Bryan Tyler- House Atreides

Goo Goo Dolls- Here Is Gone

Passion Pit- Little Secrets

The Decemberists- The Crane Wife 3

Cage the Elephant- Aint No Rest For The Wicked

Phoenix- Love Like A Sunset

Florence and the Machine - Dog Days Are Over

Florence and the Machine- Cosmic Love

Cosmic Love is an amazing song, Florence Welch just howls out the lyrics and the drums really pound out the scope of the track. This one will get your blood pumping.

The Offspring- Original Prankster

My favorite thing to do is run footy (Australian Football) montages in my head while listening to Original Prankster. I picture my team in our games and in practice and we're kickin' arse.

Dave Matthews- Ants Marching

The Proclaimers- 500 Miles

Jerry Goldsmith- Tryouts (From Rudy)

The Rolling Stones- Sympathy for the Devil

The Rolling Stones- Gimme Shelter

Michael Kamen- Band of Brothers Suite One

Michael Kamen- Training/Prince of Thieves

Sam and Dave- Hold On, I'm Coming (BB King and Eric Clapton version good too)

The Spencer Davis Group- Gimme Some Lovin'

Broken Social Scene- Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl

Peter Gabriel- Solsbury Hill

Explosions in the Sky- Your Hand in Mine

Of these, my favorite is definitely Truth. The daytrotter version is incredible as well, at the end the violin's part is brought to the front and you get a different feel, a more purposeful drive that transforms you into a badass with an agenda. I love music.

If you only look up a few of these, TRUTH and COSMIC LOVE. Do it. Hmmm, those look funny capitalized together...
