Songs You Love Driving To (1 Viewer)

Back in high school I had a buddy that drove a Z-24 convertible. (ok, not a great car but a hot rod to high schoolers.) 

He had a section of road where he would put in Metallica's  Enter Sandman, and the road matched perfectly with the song. Hit it hard in spots, tight turns, then calm down for a bit. It was awesome to ride with him, and it's the epitome of this thread. 

Good times...

I didn't think anyone would mention Radar Love, already.  :thumbup:
Radar Love was the theme song of every band who toured when i was in the biz. For mid-level acts like those i worked with, the best $$ came from playing colleges, but there was no central booking @ the time. Managers took whatever gigs they thought we could get to. I remember Bonnie Raitt played UMaine, UIndiana & SUNY New Paltz in a five day span. And there werent tour buses then - when Bonnie & the major players couldnt fly, Freebo (the bass player) drove a station wagon and everyone else rode/slept in the truck. We were all sore as hell and had sour guts from greenies & whiskey and tweakyass songs like Radar Love coming on the radio were the only time you'd see some spirit. That's one of the reasons i HATE Almost Famous soooo hard. Tiny Dancer, my road-bounced ###....

Nightrain (GnR) and Photograph (Def Leppard) are good one's I haven't seen mentioned.

My all-time favorite from HS, though, is Seven Bridges Road.

 
Blow Your Mind - Jamiroquoi (a great cruising song)

I'm Goin Home - Ten Years After, live at Woodstock

Beautiful Girls - Van Halen (hard to be sad or mad with this song going)

Illmerica - Wolfgang Gartner. TRUST ME. Put this on. Go 100+ mph. Hard not to

Doo doo doo doo doo - Stones. Drive fast, drive hard, drive angry. But dammit, drive. 

The Distance - Cake. Still angry. Must drive more. 

Love is Like Oxygen - Break out the '77 Camaro, pump the base, cruise the pop hair metal boulevard. Not enough? Your gonna die.

Green Onions - Booker T & the MGs. Get in your MG, smoke a joint, amp the base, smile with the wind rushing through your hair and bugs into your teeth 

Rockstar - N.E.R.D. - now wake the #### up hippie; time for lines. Coke and cruising.  Maybe a lil E, too

Around the World - Daft Punk.  Just E will do, thank you. Ooohhh! Glitter! Nm, just a traffic light. Duuuuude.

BYOB - System of a Down. Must. Smash. Asphalt.

will go through rest of Spotify later.
