I have a wedding coming up in a few months. Since I am at my fattest, it’s time to slim down. I really have no excuse since I live two and half blocks from my gym. It’s time to get down and get healthy.
I need your help. What songs should I power squat to?
I’ll be running, lifting weights, and not eating McDonald’s.
Here’s the playlist I have so far…
- Only Women Bleed – Alice Cooper
- Wang Dang Sweet Poontang – Ted Nugent
- We Built This City – Starship
- Sussudio – Phil Collins
- Hollaback Girl – Gwen Stefani
- Do You Really Want To Hurt Me? – Culture Club
- Heaven Is A Place On Earth – Belinda Carlisle
- Do Ya Think I’m Sexy – Rod Stewart
- Seventeen – Winger
Okay ThoughtsFromParis readers, let’s hear your suggestions!

Dancing Queen – ABBA
Shake It Off – FLorence + the Machine
Say Hey – Michael Franti + the Spearheads
Rox in the Box – The Decemberists
Romeo & Juliet – Dire Straits
Devil Inside – INXS
Now go, my child, and be one with the fitness!
D.J. Paris says:
@jennapooh1971 Sadly, and this is no joke, I actually have “Devil Inside” on my iPhone. It’s actually kind of a harder song with super dark lyrics. But, yes, it’s also INXS which sucks by default.
jennapooh1971 says:
It seems like there was some time in my life when INXS was cool, I just can’t quite put my finger on when. I can’t speak as to why they aren’t cool now, either. They just sit on my passport, unlistened to and therefore unloved. Poor sad INXS.

I think you definitely need a shout to my neighbors’ NYE party soundtrack, so include “Bootylicious” and “Love on Top” both by Beyon?e. then round it out with “Toxic” by Britney Spears. Those should keep your booty shakin’…and you can wear that mesh tank top you got for Christmas. Double WIN!
D.J. Paris says:
@Jessica_thereader This is a great mash-up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7958669iFu0

Definitely “How do you like me now” by The Heavy.
I dare you not to love it
D.J. Paris says:
@WhitneyLeeCondie I’m way burned out on that song – but I suddenly have an urge to buy a Kia Sorento. Not sure why.

http://wp.me/p2qU4P-1U Here, you can barrow from my list. You’ll be happy to know Styx did not make this list. lol
dyslexicwhisper says:
*borrow lol
D.J. Paris says:
@dyslexicwhisper I trust that nobody assumed my list was real. Running to “Only Women Bleed” would not get me past 3/10ths of a mile.
AmbahInvasion says:
What about “My Body” by Young the Giant?
D.J. Paris says:
@AmbahInvasion I’m haven’t even looked that up, but it sounds gay.
D.J. Paris says:
@atvelasquez3 INXS – hilarious.
D.J. Paris says:
@Jesse3581 I masturbate to that.
