Car Music

[6speed]

Of course there are always those songs that talk about cars, like black cars look better in the shade and stuff, but then there are real car songs.

I have a few to put on a disc for my friends like you to enjoy.



Carla Vallet- Streets Of Tomorrow
Junkie XL- Today
Jurassic 5- Where we at
Kora Jazz Trio- Sindi

Share some of your own. They don't have to be songs about cars, just some driving music

[KonaGreen]

Cars - Gary Numan (Dave Clarke remix)
Just Ride - Dave Clarke

I know more, but my brain is shot right now.

[6speed]

So it's not the original cars? That's what I mean. I don't want something about cars, I want something that can make you feel confident to be in a car.

[Nazmacher]

Queen- Dont Stop Me Now
Van Halen- Jump, Dreams
Aerosmith- Girls Of Summer (dunno y)
Deep Purple- Highway Star

[6speed]

That's what I like to see

[blingbling]

It is impossible to cruise to any type of rock music, honestly.

When I am in a sporty car, I like my trance
When I am in a tourer/cruiser, I like my R&B
When I am in a truck, I like my southern hip-hop

[ribatejo69]

Janis Joplin, 'Mercedes Benz'

[6speed]

Janis Joplin, 'Mercedes Benz'

That's a song about a car.

[Suka]

Poison - Talk Dity To Me...

[Klemmel]

The Highwaymen - Highwayman

[Nazmacher]

It is impossible to cruise to any type of rock music, honestly.

Maybe certain types of rock, but not all. That's a generalisation.

The Distance - Cake

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
Engines pumping and thumping in time
The green light flashes, the flags go up
Churning and burning they yearn for the cup

They deftly manuver and muscle for rank
Fuels burning fast on an empty tank
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns
Their prowess is potent and secretly stern

As they speed through the finish, the flags go down
The fans get up and they get out of town
The arena is empty except for one man
Still driving and striving as fast as he can

The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
Not long ago somebody left with the cup
But he's driving and striving an hugging the turns
And thinking of someone for who he still burns

He's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone, all alone, all alone in a time of need

Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's going the distance

No trophies, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no lime
He's haunted by something he cannot define
Bowel shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse
Assail him and bail him with monster truck force

In his mind he's still driving, still making the grade
She's hoping in time that her memories will fade
'Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse

The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
Not long ago somebody left with the cup
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns
And thinking of someone for who he still burns

'Cause he's going the distance,
He's going for speed
She's all alone
All alone
All alone
In a time of need

Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and ridding on his horse
He's going the distance
He's going for speed
He's going the distance

Also, Stickshifts and Safetybelts and Satan Is My Motor by Cake. Oh and Race Car Ya-Yas and Long Line of Cars. Car nuts those guys.

But The Distance is the only "driving-song" though.

[6speed]

That's a song about driving. I think you misunderstand me. I meant songs that have nothing to do with cars but have to do with feeling good while driving.

[ScionDriver]

I have a whole CD, some songs about cars/driving, others figurative (Highway 61 by Bob Dylan, Life in the Fast Lane - Ealgles) but other songs I enjoy driving to:

Yeah I understood but you wanted. And The Distance is a good driving song like I said in my post.
