The "Rules" of Playlist Thursday:
Something Old: Songs that are at least 5 years old.
Something Current: Songs that have been released within the past year.
Something to Consider: This is the wild card category. Feel free to list any song: old, current, guilty pleasure, underground, whatever floats yer boat.
And whatever you do, don't forget to head over to Pavement Runner's blog to check out the Playlist Thursday catalog for more musical inspiration.
Something Old
Artist:Rush
Title: Driven
Notable: This song will always make a top 10 running songs list for me. Especially a race day playlist. That opening guitar riff signals all systems go for me. Boogity boogity boogity let's go racin'.
Quotable: "The road unwinds towards me, what was there is gone, the road unwinds before me
and I go riding on"
Something New
Artist: Serena Ryder
Title: Stompa
Notable: So this technically isn't a 2013 release but it was late enough in 2012 that I think it counts. I just discovered this song a few weeks ago while perusing iTunes and it went straight into my running playlist. Love it. Her vocal style kind of reminds me of Adele, plus she's a Canadian. woohoo!
Quotable: "Slow down; open up your big brown eyes, Feel the rhythm in your heart, you don’t even need to try"
Something To Consider
Artist: Mumford and Sons
Title: Below My Feet
Notable: Seriously, the title says it all.
Quotable: "Keep the earth below my feet, from my sweat, my blood runs weak, let me learn from where I have been."
