I appreciate everyone's responses.

I'm picky about my music. I don't like listening to stations because I can't skip ahead or have limited skips if I don't like a song... which is often. I'm interested in specific songs with artist name and song title.

If anybody's interested, here are some of my suggestions:

AC/DC: Shoot to Thrill

The B-52's: Loveshack

Bee Gees: Stayin' Alive

Big Data: Dangerous

Blondie: Call Me

Blur: Song 2

Boomkat: The Wreckoning** (One of my all time favorites)

Borns: Electric Love

Britney Spears: Work

BT (ft. M. Doughty): Never Gonna Come Back Down** (also favorite)

Calvin Harris ft. Florence: Sweet Nothing

Jamiroquai: Canned Heat

Chet Faker: Gold

The Dandy Warhols: Bohemian Like You

Destiny's Child: Bootylicious

Digital Underground: The Humpty Dance

Donna Summer: I Feel Love

I would flip my Twinkie if I was on the treadmill and What Does The Fox Say popped up.

Hey... Different strokes yadda yadda.

I despise that song. Especially when high schoolers/college students blast it on their radios as they drive by. Bro, you are not cool. And that song makes me want to throat punch you.

I recently started turning towards country, so I really have no room for judgment.

Mm, I'll be completely honest. I have no idea who that is. When I say I recently started listening to country, I really mean 2 days ago. So not an expert yet. I like Thomas Rhett.

Hey, they're really good. Weird song, but I feel like throwing on a flannel shirt and going country dancing all of a sudden.

I'll have to check these guys out. And now I'm craving some fried chicken. Thanks. (Well, I did discover that my neighbors have chickens roaming in their yard...)

ZBB counts. Some of their best work involves Dave Grohl though. They are musicians at heart and I don't think that a lot of their music really fits "country". They do a lot of classic rock type stuff in concert.

I like country, but old stuff like Johnny Cash.

For working out I like Missy Eliott, Outkast, Beastie Boys, Jay-Z, Will Smith among others for cardio and angry music (Pantera and Rage Against the Machine) for weights.
