An ‘Ask MetaFilter’ thread: “What are some catchy, popular songs that have a tempo of about 100 beats per minute? Why is this health-related?

I help teach CPR (specifically ACLS and BLS for those in the know) at the medical school where I work. The latest (2005) American Heart Association guidelines specify a rate of 100 compressions/minute when doing CPR on all patients. One of the most effective ways to accomplish this is to do compressions while humming to the beat of a familiar song. One good choice is ‘Another One Bites The Dust’; however, given the emerging practice of having family members present during resuscitation, it might be inappropriate at times. ‘Onward Christian Soldiers’ is another song with a similar tempo that might also be inappropriate at times. So what are some other songs with this tempo that people delivering CPR can use to pace their compressions? The best answers will find their way into our training.”
