Car-tunes

[Fox Is Openly Deceptive]

I drive a lot as many of you I'm sure can relate, and it's not very fun what with all the traffic slowing you down and the monotony of driving to the same places every day. It's very simple really, I want to put together 'the ultimate driving cd' to distract me from the boring chore of driving. The problem is, whenever I sit down to get some songs, I can't think of any, let alone what the song is called or anything. This is where the beloved aus smash community comes in to save the day.

Just post what songs you like to listen to while driving. If you don't drive, maybe you like to listen to songs as a passenger or maybe you listen to something on the bus/train to pass the time. So help me out guys, post a song or many songs that you would recommend and if possible a youtube link to it.

(Extra incentive to all those who get a lift in my car every now and then for obvious reasons.)

[luke_atyeo]

Toto - Rosana
Toto - africa
Dire straights - sultans of swing
Alien ant farm - Glow (catchy jazz song, you wouldnt even know its from alien ant farm)
Cold Chisel - Bow river
Judas Priest - Electric eye
An Endless Sporadic - Sun of pearl

lots more delicious songs where those come from

 

[Richard7]

Is there any video game music you like? Download / grab some soundtracks off some people. Once I have a car that has a CD player or Ipod connecter, I know thats what I'll be listening to.

 

[J-Birds]

I generally listen to Ska when i ride

Try some Reel big fish or Catch 22

 

[undead_moose]

It's raining men!

 

[luke_atyeo]

what do you think of streetlight manifesto james?

also I got spam loads of good vg music that I'll pass your way next time I'm up there

 

[J-Birds]

I like them.
I quite enjoy Everything Goes Numb but apart from that i dont have much else of theirs.
I suppose i prefer the rawness of the older recording of Keasbey Knights but i can understand their reasoning for wanting to re-do it.

 

[C~Dog]

Drum and Bass.

It's always drum and bass...

 

[Marteh]

^ I approve

It's raining men!

^ I also approve

what do you think of streetlight manifesto james?

^ Approval some more




Anyway, I say Initial D music

 

[luke_atyeo]

fun fact

every single initial d song ever is either about love, racing or fire
usually all three

 

[asianaussie]

triple baka is horrible.

you made a certain canberran incredibly angry

triple baka has a cool chorus, but thats all

 

[TakFR]

fun fact

every single initial d song ever is either about love, racing or fire
usually all three

this is 100% true btw, Luke's not trolling

 

[Fox Is Openly Deceptive]

Great responses so far! Luke knows how I like it
There's so many bands and songs I've never heard the names of but I know their music, so this info is good.

I like pretty much any style/genre of music tbh, old and new. I also have an amazing sound system if that helps. The video game music is an interesting idea, I know I loved the Wind Waker music, and Luke also has great game music possibly from Final Fantasy, I'm not sure.

I'm still waiting on some people who get lifts with me (when they dare) to recomend some songs.

Keep it coming guys.

 

[luke_atyeo]

well considering how you drive foxy, I think you should just have push it to the limit on endless loop

 

[ciaza]

triple baka is horrible.

I will murder you in your sleep.

To everyone else who said Ska: I love you guys. Streetlight Manifesto is amazing, personal favourites being The Receiving End of it All, Here's to Life and Somewhere in the Between.

Sublime is an amazing band. (Wrong Way)

 

[Richard7]

Gotta say, I only have 2 Initial D songs, listening to "Break in2 the Nite" while driving would be pretty epic.

 

[Splice]

I like listening to
Dire Straits - Money for Nothing
when I drive.

Little Splice has grown up and is driving?! You're lucky to have a car that can play discs / has an ipod connector while you're on your L's.

 

[EverAlert]

yeah seriously splice is old enough to drive wtf?

 

[Marteh]

Isn't Splice like 12 though?

 

[luke_atyeo]

[luke_atyeo]

me too, and none of those pieces of **** are on my list

 

[luke_atyeo]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYk1Eks00Tw& - only of you have a red car

 

[Technodeath]

You guys are just butthurt that I don't listen to the same droney **** you guys listen to.

 

[TakFR]

Devildriver and Metallica are the only ones i'd rate there, and even then they are just average (Old Metallica is good though sometimes =P)

 

[Technodeath]

Old metallica is all I have on the disc from them. Of course Devildriver and whatnot aren't exactly 'high grade' material, but it's down to the listener to like what they like

 

[luke_atyeo]

**** for instance

 

[Technodeath]

Get back under your bridge, yo
