Driving Music

[Leroy Lizard]

I love songs that have that certain summer evening mood, like driving late at night with the windows down and no one bugging you. Some come to mind.

Driver's Seat by Sniff and the Tears

One of These Mornings by Moby

Amarillo by Morning by George Strait

Summer by War


Any others?

[King Crimson]

the Doors LA Woman.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

Driver's Seat by Sniff and the Tears

Summer by War


Any others?Even the evenings in summer in these parts require the windows up...but maybe, "Bang on the Drum all day" Todd Rundgren

[GKeeper316]

chronicle vol 1; creedence clearwater revival.

[sooner59]

Haha, I was actually only gonna put CCR. Nice one keeper!

[delhalew]

What was that song on the first Van Hagar album(5150)...Summer nights?
"Summer nights and my radio, that's all we need need baby...don't ya' know". hehe, I love that one.

[delhalew]

By the way, obvious classic of all time. Radar love by Golden Earring. This is also my all time favorite karaoke jam.

[Leroy Lizard]

I like Radar Love, but does it have the mood for what I described? Sure, "Born to be Wild" is a great driving song, but not for the casual hot summer's eve out on I-40 at 2 am in July.

Think: MOOD.

[Viking Kitten]

the Doors LA Woman.

This.

For me it has the right mood.

I would have to add Blinded by the Light by Manfred Mann and any number of REO Speedwagon and Journey songs.

[Soonerchaz]

The entire Trace album by Son Volt.

[soonerinkaty]

The One by Tantric

[Leroy Lizard]

For me it has the right mood.

Sure if you're trying to outrun the cops. :D

[yankee]

i could go on and on about music that must be played in the summer, windows down.

Boston- More than a feeling
Any song by the Red hot chili peppers
Sublime- What i got
Weezer- Island in the sun
AC/DC- Highway to Hell
Incubus- Wish you were here

well that's the tip of the iceberg for me...

[delhalew]

Sure if you're trying to outrun the cops. :D

:D Maybe you have a point.

[Okla-homey]

U2's Joshua Tree, the whole album is fine driving music.

Spencer Davis Group - Gimme Some Lovin'

[tommieharris91]

ZZ Top has lotsa good driving music.

[MR2-Sooner86]

[Leroy Lizard]

I should have known better.

[TUSooner]

My favorite driving music is a baseball game, any baseball game except for the New Orleans Zephyrs, whose play-by-play guy sounds like he is trying to cough up a pound of broken glass. Leroy- this is as contrarian as I could be just now, I'll try to do better later. ;) :D

[Leroy Lizard]

Actually, the only helpful suggestion was the baseball game.

May I suggest that all of you refrain from ever working in a CD store?

"Yeah, uhhh, I've got a date with a young lady and I kinda want to put her in the mood to, you know, make out on the couch, and maybe something later, if you get my drift. I've got the candles... and I want to darken the room a little..."

"Dude, buy some Dragonforce, dude!!!!"

"Yeah, and... and... and Iron Maiden! They rock!!!"

[Leroy Lizard]

Okay, I don't really like that Hollies song that much... but it least has the right feel to it.

Well, in that case, go with Cradle of Filth and Slayer. I'm sure your special lady will love it.

Phil says It will be fixed in the next 2 months er at least before Football Season :D :D :D :D :D

[thesnowbishop]

Is driving music the same as road trip music?

How about:

Deathwish by the Police
Soul music of just about any stripe: i.e. Green Onions by Booker T. and the MGs or I'm a Man by the Spencer Davis Group or....
Orange Blossom Special by so many different groups...

[olevetonahill]

Hows this LL ?

Summertime from Porgy and Bess as recorded by Ray Charles and Cleo Lane would fit your parameters Leroy, but I'd love to hear your rebuttal to olevet's Janis mention.

[Leroy Lizard]

Okay, you win! I'm sorry! Please make the music go away! Mercy! Mercy!

[tommieharris91]

Leroy, GKeeper's first link is EXACTLY what you're looking for. It's perfect pr0n music. The high, out-of-tune keyboard just makes her climax that much faster. ;)

That reminds me, "Riviera Paradise" by Stevie Ray Vaughan should make this, ahem... driving list.

[soonerhubs]

"Drive" -- Alan Jackson
"Mine" -- Kenny Chesney
"On the Road Again" --Willie Nelson
"Toes" --Zac Brown Band

There's a great scene in Kick-A$$ where the nerdy superhero Kick-A$$ and Red Mist, nerdy son of the main villian, are riding around in a Mustang in Manhattan to this tune.
