July workout tracks
TOP 10 WORKOUT TRACKS FOR JULY: This month's Run Hundred top 10 is packed with surprises, says Chris Lawhorn, founder of the site. Apart from Rihanna, none of the usual suspects (Gaga, Pitbull, Katy Perry, etc.) make appearances. In their place are an aggro synth track by Nero, the comeback single from Matchbox Twenty, a crossover hit from Juan Magan, the second track from One Direction and a mash-up from the Rock of Ages soundtrack. On top of that, the chart is led off by a half-time sludge groove from Wiz Khalifa. Could we be on the cusp of some sorta transition? Here's the full list:
Wiz Khalifa, “Work Hard, Play Hard” – 70 BPM
Waka Flocka Flame, Nicki Minaj, Tyga & Flo Rida, “Get Low” – 125 BPM
The Pretty Black Chains, “Ambulance” – 153 BPM
Matchbox Twenty, “She's So Mean” – 120 BPM
Juan Magan, “Bailando Por Ahi” – 131 BPM
Russell Brand & Catherine Zeta-Jones, “We Built This City” / “We're Not Gonna Take It” – 143 BPM
One Direction, “One Thing” – 127 BPM
Justin Bieber & Ludacris, “All Around the World” – 130 BPM
Rihanna, “Where Have You Been” – 128 BPM
Nero, “Promises” – 144 BPM
