Topic: favorite driving songs Posted: August 11 2010 at 9:33am |
I like road music also, BUT!
If you can hear it in your vette, your pipes are too soft.
J&D, BB, Prince, CCR, BTO,
You all for get the STONES, in the vette commerical, little boy dreaming about the red one and the little girl?

Long Live the Beach Boys!!!

Guaranteed to run for hours, mama, it's a perfect size
Talkin' 'bout love
Talkin' 'bout love

Groovin' on the freeway, gauge is on the red
gun down on my gasoline, believe I'm gonna crack your head
Talkin' 'bout love
Talkin' 'bout love
Talkin' 'bout
I can't stop talkin' about
I can't stop talkin' about
Ooh, yeah-ee-yeah, yes, ah, drive on
Ooh, yeah-ee-yeah-ee-yes, I'm comin' through
Come to me for service every hundred miles
Baby, let me check your points, fix your overdrive
Talkin' 'bout love
Talkin' 'bout love
Talkin' 'bout
Ooh, yes, fully automatic, comes in any size
Makes me wonder what I did before I got synchronized
Talkin' 'bout lo-ooo-ove
Talkin' 'bout love

Ooh, feather-light suspension, Konis couldn't hold
I'm so glad I took a look inside your showroom doors
Talkin' 'bout love

Ah yeah, ah yeah
Oh, I can't stop talkin' about love

That's cool you like the "oldies" and if you want to go back in time, how about retro fitting the Delorean's Flux Capacitor from the movie to work in a Vette. I sure wouldn't mind getting a few years back in this old body !

I like to play a lot of 50's and 60's music when I am cruising with the top down which really looks funny considering I'm 37. I guess I'm trying to transport myself back in time.

I was always a Doors fan, but for a kicker road song, try Prince's "Go Crazy" (... when the elevator tries to bring you down, go crazy...) (I think it was on the Purple Rain album, before he became a symbol and was still a guy) Great song, anyway.

Ride Daddy Ride, is from a song "Cold Light".. Not sure of the artist.. And being from that "older generation" you mentioned, I agree with your songs....

Numerous great ones in the lists so far, but one obvious one is missing:
Rush Red Barchetta (among other Rush songs)

Vette(s): I have a 1996 Collector Edition coupe with the LT4 engine. Looks and runs like new with 24000 miles on it. 203 coupes were imported to Canada for 1996 and only 83 of them had the Z15 option. Don't know how many of those had the LT4 engine.

Some great stuff!! Nothing like taking off/down the top on a warm summer night and throwing Meatloaf's CD, Bat Out Of Hell. In fact, anything by Meatloaf or some good old country!!
