I need to rip two new songs to my brand new Zen...

I want something I can walk fast to, make me glad it's a wonderful day.

I listen to anything so genre doesn't mattter (my walking music playlist includes classical, rap, rock, old time country, R&B...)

C'mon, don't be shy... I need new tunes...

1. I doubt you'll find it

But look for Echo Uganda... they're a local band here, not sure if you can find them online, but they've got some wonderfully upbeat African music! (and they're great people, to boot!)

9. Yup, that's them!!

I don't know how Gideon feels about sharing his music... I know he's made some copies of CDs for local folks, but I don't know if he's got anything out on the internet yet. You could email him and tell him Lindsay sent you; he's a great guy! :)

2. Nice by Duran Duran

On their new album Astronaut. It's just the most infectiously upbeat song ever.

6. Most of my songs are from the 70's and 80's

I guess being preoccupied with kids in the 90's and 00's I kind of lost track of what was out there.
Thanks for the recommendation!

4. "Holy Wars" by Megadeth

That will have you walking at about 8 mph. It also might make you punch a few people and engage in vandalism.

Megadeth did get a lot slower after the 80s. Maybe that's why.
