Favorite car song?

imported_mab · 08-27-2008, 10:12 PM

I'm getting my car this Friday and I was wondering what song I'd listen to first while driving out of the lot (apart from the engine's melody, of course!).

What's the ultimate driving song in your opinion?

Severious · 08-27-2008, 11:27 PM

Ohh....depends on genre...what you into? Rap, Techno, Rock(60's,70's,80's,90's), Metal, Industrial, Classical, Country, Pop?

Heinzftw · 08-28-2008, 02:53 AM

War - Lowrider

Oregon · 08-28-2008, 03:25 AM

Early Tangerine Dream, oh dang, they didn't do songs. Never mind...:wink:

MikeVictor · 08-28-2008, 03:34 AM

Song no 2 by Blur

WOO OOO!

Rephlex · 08-28-2008, 07:46 AM

Underworld : Dark & Long :smile:

bluRider · 08-28-2008, 07:48 AM

Top Gear picked out Queen's Don't Stop Me Now as their favourite driving song ... although I heard ppl listening to Flight of the Valkyries are more prone to speeding ... perhaps a very dangerous combination with a 1'er :smile:

bigslick82 · 08-28-2008, 11:34 AM

Anything from the Matrix soundtrack

PA135i · 08-28-2008, 12:25 PM

Radar Love - Golden Earring

No rap for my 1er becasue it would go into limp mode for sure.

The ultimate driving song for the Ulitimate Driving Machine MUST also be German. With that said...I listened to LOVE DRIVE and COMING HOME by the Scorpions while driving home from the dealer.
(with my wife rolling her eyes through both songs!!)

Born to be Wild

Ramblin Man

King of the Road

On the Road Again

Mustang Sally or in this case (BMW Sue)

"Autobahn"

That should be enough to get you where you are going in a good mood.

I was going to say Los by Rammstein.. aka "go". Good cruising song

We need some recommended playlists - say 10-12 songs.
Doesn't have to be about cars, just the appropriate sound to go with your 1.
I'll work on one and post later.
