My favorite car song?

"One Piece at a Time" - Johnny Cash

-Rusty

P.S. "Low Rider", by War... second place.

"Fuel" by Mettalica

"Radar love" (White Lion version)

There is a another Mettalica cover that goes "East of Omaha.. I smoked the days last cigarette..." I forget the name of the song.

I think that's a cover of an old Bob Seger song, Turn the Page.

Roll me Away was a good one by Seger, too.

-Rusty

One toke over the line

I like hip hop, my favorite is EggMan, or High Plains Drifter. Beastie Boys

Ah yes.. that is it LB. Turn the Page (Metallica version)

Pulling trailers to the MUSR in Texas and many race tracks.. you get to know a few good songs.

I CAN'T DRIVE...55
Sammy Haggar
and I have the speeding tickets to prove it.

Hmmm....

While I'm not a huge Sammy Hagar fan I'm surprised nobody voted for "I can't drive 55".

At age 14 I'd had my drivers licence for about 2 weeks when my Mom's cousin took me for a drive in his new RX-7. He put me in the drivers seat for some high speed canyon carving up the Salmon River from Salmon to North Fork. (Gorgious country if you've not seen it) He put me through some intense instruction (He races bikes, carts, and cars) . I've never sweated that much in my life and won't ever forget it. Hagar was in the tape deck, so the experience is burned into my brain with that soundtrack. I still sweat when I hear that song.

-Ben M.

Don't forget that song by Chuck Barry. What's the name of it... is it Maybeleen?

"Eat a Peach" Allman Bros -The whole CD for a long drive
I think only JP would be the other lister who would remember "Lil Nash Ramber" Dad Roberts!
I can't believe Brad knows "Bitchin Camero"
"Little Red Covette" what is his name now?
Geoff

How could I forget about Red Barchetta... I think that's tied for second for me.

-Rusty

"Cross Town Traffic" from Jimi
the version by the Peppers is good too

jimmy buffett rules!!!!!

John Cougar- Cherry Bomb and Ain't Even Done With The Night.

I’m a rock ‘n roll type of guy, but today it’s …

“On the road again, I’m so glad to be on the road again”

I don’t know the rest of the song but I don’t give a shit because….

“On the road again, I’m so glad my 914 is on the road again”


YEEE-HAA!!! WOO-HOO!!! FUCKIN’ -A- BUBBA!!!

Yes, I may be just a tad happy today.

I am 50, dude. Atleast I am younger than JP, he is old!!
Jimi went to Garfield HS in Seattle, a few years before I did although his brother was there when I was.
Geoff

I forgot...

"Shakin" by Eddie Money.

-Rusty

Favorite driving song: Radar Love (Golden Earring version)
Ury - Dixie Chicken, a car song? I don't know about that but one of my favorites just the same!!

Or what about that song "Hot Rod Lincoln"?
He said, "Son, you're gonna drive me to drinkin' if you don't stop drivin that hot rod Lincoln"

On the road again Willie Nelson

Used to take the motor home out for 4 weeks at a time and loved to drive across the USA to that song.
I couldn't wait to be on the road again.

Bernie

I can't remember the name of the song - I thought it was from David Wilcox - something about a radar gun.

It's radar gun by the Bottle Rockets. Listen to a clip of it here http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000...5868011-3361666 .

Nobody's gonna take my car, it's gonna break the speed of sound!

I LOVE it, I NEED it, I BLEED it!

(sounds like most of the lister's here)

Radar Love
Jessica
Who Do You Love?

You doan wana be listening to any of these while driving around cops.

Dumbshit

I don't see why you guys like "radar love" so much...

Maybe it's because I've seen the Golden Earing (it's a Dutch band) and know they're a very uninspired bunch of jaded old farts...

Or maybe I've played the stoopid song too many times (wake me up in the middle of the night and put a guitar in my hands and I'll play it without opening my eyes)

cheers,

Jeroen

More and more I find myself diggng up and listening to old tunes I used to hear on the radio in my teenage days (and my 20's - Love 80's tunes). Radar Love was one of 'em. Can't help it.

Meatloaf - Paradise By The Dashboard Light

Round & Round - Ratt

Sorry folks - I dig the 80's glam.

Send me your avatar pic (not the small one) Rob.

My vote goes for Red Barchetta, but Radar Love is up there too. Actually, I don't usually listen to music while I drive. It drives people that ride with me crazy. I like just listening to the car. I'm not even going to put a stereo in my 914 I don't think. Maybe a removable unit in place of the center console........got to eliminate some more rust first.

Crawling in the Dark by Hoobastank - I love that song.

Hey, it could be about a guy trying to put his 914 back together "show me what it's for, make me understand it ..."

Sheryl Crow - Steve McQueen
