MP3 music to exercise by - what do you think?

Me, I like aerobic pacing to Chicago-style blues tunes-Koko Taylor, Clapton, BB King.

I like jump roping to "Rockit" by Herbie Handcock

personally i like working out to oldies music..richard simmons is corny but he has the right idea imo. And no I dont use system but hes got a good compilation - i just like the music.

So far I have the following:

Theme from "The Contender - Muay Thai"
"O Fortuna" (Theme from Excalibur)
Theme from "Raiders of the Lost Ark"
Theme from "Lawrence of Arabia"
"Fighting 17th" from the movie "Backdraft" - otherwise known as the Iron Chef (Japan) theme
Chariots of Fire
Theme from Superman
Looking for a good recording of "Fanfare for the Common Man"
------
I like the Star Wars Theme but it's hard to exercise by - or maybe it's just me.
Any other ideas?
It's for the sig other, so if any of you guys think I've picked something too "cute" please comment.
It's all instrumental because I hear lyrics can be distracting.
