This is another track I want to listen to during my morning run.

It’s by Zedd, the prince of the EDM world that many people know.

A masterpiece that fuses passionate beats with a sophisticated sound was born from the collaboration between Canada’s Loud Luxury and Brando.

Centered on a chance encounter at a nightclub, this captivating track expresses intense longing and uncontrollable emotions for the other person.

Released in October 2017, it climbed high on charts around the world and won Dance Recording of the Year at the 2019 Juno Awards.

R3hab is a Dutch EDM producer and DJ known for bounce-style EDM.

His tracks are always cool, but this one has a slightly different vibe since it was released after he switched labels.

Just like the title suggests, it’s a track that lets you run like Icarus.

Fall Out Boy – Uma Thurman (Audio)

I think it’s music that especially appeals to men.

In the chorus, phrases like “I can move mountains” and “I can make miracles happen” are powerful and uplifting, and the lyrics and rhythm encourage you even when you feel like giving up while running.

We Will Rock YouQueen

Queen – We Will Rock You (Official Video)

With its powerful handclaps and stomping rhythm, this staple track energizes sports festivals and dance events.

Released in October 1977 by the British rock band Queen from the album “News of the World,” the song celebrates the determination to overcome setbacks and hardships in pursuit of victory.

As a rousing anthem symbolizing unity and fighting spirit, it continues to be embraced across sports scenes worldwide.

The foot stomps and handclaps recorded by the band members themselves create a sense of togetherness that draws in the audience, and in 2002 it was also adopted as the title song for the musical “We Will Rock You.” It’s the perfect choice for those who want to bring an entire venue together during school sports days or dance performances.
