Track 29 – I Write Sins Not Tragedies – Panic at the Disco(2006)

There is not many rock tunes on this list, if any. It’s not that I’m just an old school house head. It’s trying to find good rock tunes to run to.

Track 26 – Mo Money Mo Problems – The Notorious B.I.G. featuring Puff Daddy, Kelly Price and Mase (1997)

I probably came across this tune about a year ago on YouTube as I was randomly searching for music. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 25”

Track 23 – Prayer – Prospa (2018)

Note – Sorry I have been missing in action over the last few weeks. The got married recently and was away for 2 weeks doing that and have been struggling with re-entry to normal life and work.

Track 21 – Voodoo People – The Prodigy (1994)

Keeping the pedal firmly to the metal it the Godfathers of Rave, The Prodigy.
