Aspects of the invention use music to influence a person's performance in a physical workout. A computing device receives and analyzes data indicating current physiology and movement of the user in order to provide a music piece that will influence the user to speed up, slow down, or maintain current pace so to achieve a desired exercise performance level. Information specific to the user may be considered in providing the music piece.

The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows: 1. A computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions for: identifying difference between current heart rate of a user and desired heart rate for the user; and providing a music piece that influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference based on characterizing each music piece available to the user using one or more music features, the one or more music features comprising at least one of average energy of the music piece or variance in energy of the music piece. 2. The medium of claim 1, wherein characterizing each music piece available to the user using one or more music features includes: dividing the music piece into one or more segments; and characterizing each of the one or more segments with the one or more music features. 3. The medium of claim 1, further comprising: adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece so the currently playing music piece influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 4. The medium of claim 1, further comprising: identifying a new music piece whose one or more music features can influence the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 5. The medium of claim 1, further comprising: adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece so the currently playing music piece influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference; and if adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece is not sufficient in influencing the user to exercise to diminish the difference, identifying a new music piece whose one or more music features can influence the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 6. The medium of claim 1, wherein providing the music piece includes considering information specific to the user. 7. The medium of claim 1, wherein the average energy of the music piece comprises the following function: 〈 E 〉 = 1 43 ∑ i = 0 43 E ( i ) wherein E(i) is the instantaneous sound energy. 8. The medium of claim 7, wherein the instantaneous sound energy comprises the following function: 〈 E 〉 = 1 43 ∑ i = 0 43 E ( i ) wherein a(k) comprises a list of sound amplitude values for the right channel of a stereo audio signal and b(k) comprises a list of sound amplitude values for the left channel of the stereo audio signal. 9. The medium of claim 7, wherein the variance in energy of the music piece is computed as the average of the difference between the instantaneous energy and the average energy over a certain time interval. 10. A computer system comprising a processor for executing computer-executable instructions for: identifying difference between current heart rate of a user and desired heart rate for the user; identifying a music piece that is predicted to influence the user to exercise to diminish the difference, wherein the music piece is identified by a music selection algorithm based on historical data comprising heart rates and movement speeds of the user associated with the music piece during the user's past exercise sessions; and providing the music piece to the user. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein providing the music piece to the user includes: characterizing each music piece available to the user using one or more music features. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein the one or more music features characterizing each music piece comprise at least one of average energy of the music piece, variance in energy of the music piece, beat of the music piece, and sound volume of the music piece. 13. The system of claim 11, further comprising: adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece so the currently playing music piece influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 14. The system of claim 11, further comprising: identifying a new music piece whose one or more music features can influence the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 15. The system of claim 11, further comprising: adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece so the currently playing music piece influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference; and if adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece is not sufficient in influencing the user to exercise to diminish the difference, identifying a new music piece whose one or more music features can influence the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 16. A computer-implemented method for using music to influence performance of a user during an exercise routine, the method comprising: identifying difference between a current heart rate of the user and a desired heart rate for the user; and retrieving a music piece from memory and providing the music piece to the user, wherein the music piece influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference based at least upon a function of an amount of time the user has been exercising, the current heart rate of the user, and a movement speed of the user. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein providing the music piece to the user includes: characterizing each music piece available to the user using one or more music features. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein the one or more music features characterizing each music piece comprise at least one of average energy of the music piece, variance in energy of the music piece, beat of the music piece, and sound volume of the music piece. 19. The method of claim 17, further comprising: adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece so the currently playing music piece influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 20. The method of claim 17, further comprising: identifying a new music piece whose one or more music features can influence the user to exercise to diminish the difference. 21. The method of claim 17, further comprising: adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece so the currently playing music piece influences the user to exercise to diminish the difference; and if adjusting the one or more music features of a currently playing music piece is not sufficient in influencing the user to exercise to diminish the difference, identifying a new music piece whose one or more music features can influence the user to exercise to diminish the difference.
