I love Savage Garden. A lot of people here like House Music, but I hate them. Here are some of their songs which are good for running. And I also like some of the Black Eyed Pea for beat music. I hate the last one, but damn it's being played soo many times it stuck in my head!

While I have slacked off somewhat in the past year, as far as workouts are concerned, when I used to hit the treadmill, elliptical, or exercise bike in my home, I typically needed some upbeat, quick tempo music, with lots of rhythm and beat to it to get me motivated. I had a time during which I would only listen to a type of music called “Reggaeton” which is Latin (and was big in Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic at the time), because it was so fast-paced with great rhythm and just got you in the mood to start moving. Then I discovered that visual stimuli coupled with great music was even more helpful during a monotone workout on the treadmill. So I started watching music videos On Demand or from MTV while I was running and I found myself more energetic and enthusiastic about the exercise as I viewed perfectly shaped R&B singers dancing in the videos on my television screen. While music type is certainly a choice, I think any style that you may be into can work in your favor if it helps you become inspired to get in shape yourself.
