Empire State of Mind from Alicia Keys&Jay Z, I create a playlist based on this song and download Spotify playlist to mp3 then put them on my iPod. Kinda reminds me of those good old days when we can still go out without covering our faces.

“Lose Yourself” or “Till I Collapse” are my go tos. At least both are pretty long so they’re more of a last 5 mins song.
But just don’t let them end before the intervals ends, that makes the RPE go through the roof!

For me the 19 min song is easy, it is the same I listen to on repeat when I’m in pain and need to get shit done 
Lindemann - Steh Auf
Suicide - Ghost Rider
Have you ever heard Robert Palmer’s cover? He apparently used to do it as part of his live show.

There’s lots of familiar tracks in here, particularly The Prodigy and Pendulum (EDM for Metal Heads?)
I sometimes use Voodoo People (also perfect tempo for a fast run). I often use a bit of Rammstein for the early stages followed by NIN - Wish and Gave Up (remixes from Fixed) Gave Up needs to be started around 17 minutes for best effect.

So funny, I went down a YouTube rabbit hole and came across a partial recording of that Palmer cover. Trying to imagine what your average Palmer concertgoer would’ve made if that in 1987.
I have three different Ramp Playlists I work through but they all start and end the same way. First song is Voulez Vous by ABBA and the “19 minute song” is Verdi"s Requiem “Dies Irae”

Ok, somehow this song in Joe Bonamassa’s portfolio escaped me until my son pointed me to it. Song title, sound and BPM (95 for the live version) have just put it on the top of my list.
PS> Can someone point me to instructions to post the clickabout YouTube video still?
Feel the same. I never listen to Zombie off the trainer, but “Dragular”, “More Human Than Human”, “Thunderkiss '65”, and “Electric Head, pt 2” are all staples of my go-hard playlists. Same goes for Ministry (“N.W.O.”, “Thieves”, “Stigmata”, “Jesus Built my Hot Rod”, …)

I love this song, and you’re not wrong about the 50w boost when the beat drops, but for me that’s because that slow intro section is -50w of where I could be.
