Charlie Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Got this album today and thought I'd create a thread about driving music. What music do you like to drive to? Why do you choose that particular song? Here's my driving playlist which I must've made about a year ago now and seriously needs updating... They're all fast, loud, and quite powerful songs which I can sing along to if I feel the need. The Top Gear album itself is OK, but I wouldn't really call it a driving album... Edit - Imageshack is taking an age to load images here - just be patient if it doesn't load up quickly
Jamba Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Oh yeah, get in with the pop-rock and hair-metal. Transformers soundtrack (original movie) is pretty good but probably get down to some Massive Attack if I was feeling in a more mellow mood.
Mundi Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 They left the best driving song ever. Born to be wild!
EEVILMURRAY Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 I have most of those on their original albums. Bollocks to Top Gear!
welsh_gamer Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 I find that live albums are much more enjoyable to listen to while driving.
Hellfire Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Does it come with driving sunglasses, driving scarf, driving gloves and driving sock?
Jimbob Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 All classic songs, and great to listen to on a journey. As Hellfire said, does it come with sunglasses?? Got most of these songs on original albums so not much point getting this for my collection.
DCK Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Where's Radar Love by Golden Earring? And what the hell, Summer of '69?!
Twozzok Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Haha, when i'm in a car I get the urge to listen to this hour long Hardstyle mix I have >_<
Dyson Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Freebird and Bohemian Rhapsody are two epic driving songs. I was shocked when Bohemian Rhapsody wasn't even shortlisted in their original poll.
Hem Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Um generally house, garage or trance at night... Hip hop for the summer is a must, pre-1994 especially. That's about it really. Bit of Jungle too.
Iun Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Um generally house, garage or trance at night...Hip hop for the summer is a must, pre-1994 especially. That's about it really. Bit of Jungle too. I insist you play more of It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back. Damn fine album.
Portlett Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 I havent' past my est (22 as well ) but i think My Lovely Man by RHCP would be a good driving track.
Emasher Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 The Mario Kart invincibility theme (though I don't drive yet, I'm just thinking ahead).
mcj metroid Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 i dont drive but if i did it woulnt be to that stuff haha
Mr_Odwin Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 'Don't stop me now' by Queen is an awesome choice. I try not to listen to anything with too much pace, or it makes my driving worse than it already is.
somme Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Every You Every Me by Placebo is great when driving down a freeway
danny Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 The ace of spades by motorhead. I think thats what its called and who its by. Aint my sort of music but i do think thats a cool song to drive to
jayseven Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Does it come with driving sunglasses, driving scarf, driving gloves and driving sock? Just the one sock? Dude, your kind of driving'd get your arrested. Careful, now.
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 You need to drive to Cherub Rock by The Smashing Pumpkins. Or 1979 (dunno why, but its very relaxing.) My other recommendations: Be my little baby - The Ronettes Its a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll - AC/DC Slither - Velvet Revolver Roll with it - Oasis
Noodleman Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Immigrant Song by Led Zepellin is the ultimate driving song.
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Immigrant Song by Led Zepellin is the ultimate driving song. That reminds me of School of Rock.
Noodleman Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Jack Black had to send a video begging them to let immigrant song be used in School of Rock. Its an extra on the DVD. also Master of Puppets by Metallica is pretty good.

I recommend you take a listen of that, Moria.
