I almost can't believe I'm starting a "your favourite ______ track" thread, but I really struggle with the Pilates tracks when I mix. I can think of dozens of Tai Chi warmups, Sun Sals, Standing Strength tracks, etc. that I know and love, but when it comes time to mix*, I have a hard time selecting Pilates tracks. There are only about three or so that I gravitate toward for each:

Abs -
Aint Nobody (23)
Crazy (39)
I Love to Move In Here (43)

Back -
Amazing (41)
One Step Too Far (32)
You Got The Love (35)
Paid My Dues (17)

*Yes, I mix up my BodyFlow releases and don't always play old releases in their entirety. String me up!

I need to broaden my horizons but when I scroll through my playlists on my iPod, none of the Pilates tracks really jump out at me, like "Oh! I remember that one! I should re-learn it.." You know?

So tell me: what are your fave Pilates tracks, and why?

You got my top choice for Track 6 (I Love To Move In Here)

For Track 7, I like 27's "Praise You." There hasn't ever been a track like it since- it's all encompassing (locusts, pointers, swimming, push ups) and it's got a great beat

My faves:

Abs:

Release The Pressure (35)
Suddenly I See/Stronger (40)
I Love To Move In Here (43) (Using this in my current mix :D)
Disco Lies (44)

Back:

The Joker (29)
Champion Sound (37)
Lift Me Up (40)
Forever (43)
Shattered (Turn The Car Around) (45)

For the front side I would go:

Unbreakable (#17)

Where Is The Love (#25)

Lifted (#27)

I'm Not Missing You (#36)

Suddenly I See/Stronger (#40)

Hold On (#42)

I Love To Move In Here (#43)

Disco Lies (#44)

 

And for the flip side:

Paid My Dues (#17)

Muhammed Ali (#21)

Counting On A Miracle (#23)

Are You Happy Now (#25)

Last Thing On My Mind (#30)

One Step Too Far (#32)

My Man (#33)

Over My Head (#38)

Won't Go Home Without You (#39)

Lift Me Up (#40)

Amazing (#41)

Forever (#43)

Shattered (#45)

 

It's so hard just picking a handful... these are the ones I'm continually drawn back to, but I would have to say that Track 7 from the last release was probably one of the best tracks EVA!

Now recruiting more FREAKS

I forgot to add that I also (rarely) do whole releases when I mix.

Now recruiting more FREAKS

Here are my favorite track 6's  

Abs:

Gangsters Paradise - Coolio Bodybalance 8
Where do I begin - Shirley Bassey Bodybalance 15
Love Don't Cost a Thing - J-Lo Bodybalance 14 Very Very Cool Track
My Culture Giant Leap and Robbie Williams Bodybalance 19
Foolish - Ashanti Bodybalance 20 a very quite track and effective.
Girl Talk - TLC Bodybalance 21
Ain't Nobody - Kelly Price Bodybalance 23 (Love this track.)
Too Lost in You - Sugarbabes Bodybalance 26
Praise You - Fat Boy Slim Bodybalance 27 :)
Crazy - Seal Bodybalance 31
Come Together - Primal Scream Bodybalance 33
Release The Pressure - Leftfield Bodybalance 35  
Music Matters - Faithless feat Cass Fox Bodybalance 38

The reason why I love these tracks is because of the music and the deep emotion of the tracks. :) I love Praise You - Fat Boy Slim Bodybalance 27. It is my all-time favorite track 7's for personal reasons. :)

Now working on track 7's :)

Erin, I completely agree. I also mix, and I also tend to not love track 6 and 7's: either because the music is not my style, or there was something about the chorey that I didn't like (either too complicated to want to relearn, or every once in awhile one bothers my neck for some unknown reason). So, great thread idea.

What I gravitate toward: 

6's:

24 My love is your love 

25 Where is the love

35 Release the pressure (this is one of the very few releases I will teach in its entirety)

40 Suddenly I see/Stronger

41 Sing 

45 Funhouse (really enjoying this one but it's a bit like Stronger - it gets boring to teach really quickly)

 

7's: 

21 Muhammed Ali

22 The Rising (all-time favorite T7)

24 Ain't it Funny

25 Are you happy now

35 You got the love

37 Champion Sound

40 Lift me up

42 Bourne Ultimatum

45 Shattered - I LOVE this track! i am reluctant to mix it out.....

I TOTALLY AGREE, I LOVE "i love to move in here" IT"S FREAKING AWESOME!!

 

43 is one of the finest releases yet.
