Just heading home from town, windows down and tunes on as it's a lovely day.
Anyone else do automotive karaoke?
Had Bow Wow Wow's I Want Candy on the way here and got Simple. Minds Forget About Me for the return journey.
What's your driving song of choice to sing along to?

the Clash is also ever-present in the car, as is Van Halen (best of)and the Who "Quadrophenia" - music for any and every mood! I have Simple Minds in there too (New Gold Dream), oh and Lynyrd Skynyrd is fun sometimes too. Got a Somerset there and back trip this weekend so concur the vocal chords WILL be f**ked upon return |

There's just some songs that you just have to join in with, roadtrips are awesome with the right soundtrack |

If you've never heard "Spirit of Radio" by Rush, that's a classic first thing in the morning, turn it as loud as it'll go tune to start the day. Am as excited at 45 as I was at 10 when I first heard it by that song.
If it's Motorhead, it has to be "Bomber" , which is also my funeral song
And for a bit of extra punk, try "Smash It up" by the Damned and "staring at the rude boys" by the Ruts

I like Got A New Rose by the Damned, currently have Norman Greenbaums version of Spirit In the Sky to sing along to. |

The Medics version is very good, and for punky covers try Toy Dolls "Nellie the elephant" and Stranglers " Walk on by". But NOT the Damneds worst moment "Eloise" which was crap. Dr and MEdics opened for the Damned on their 10th anniversary show at Finsbury Park, I think I still have bruises from that |

"The whole "Rain" album is good, and the previous one "Dreamtime" has Spiritwalker on it, which is IMO a better tune than Sanctuary. Shame they went too far metal later on"
Spirit walker is a great tune I have to agree, just that Sanctuary has personal meaning for me |

"Muse-Plug in baby

I saw them on Dreamtime tour so Spiritwalker was first one that resonated with me. Some good taste on this forum |

"Our holiday driving CD is Dolly Parton  "
Respect! I found a box of old vinyl inherited from my uncle and in it was a late 70s album simply entitled "Dolly" in a pristine gatefold sleeve, with the lady simply a delight of hair teeth and er enormous tits! Hanging on to that vinyl! |

"Simple Minds is good...
For driving (not that I drive), I dunno, have this:-
Waylon Jennings - Dukes Of Hazzard "Good Ol' Boys ...
www.youtube.com/watch?v=qogVHlmFcx0"
Dukes of Hazzard, classic! And for good measure albeit a bit mellow , throw in the hilariously named BJ Thomas with "Raindrops keep fallin on my head" |

Do like the Rolling Stones Gimme Shelter on night time drives, never feels the same during the day for some reason.
Also Billy Idol's Catch My Fall has just come on, waiting for the Steve Stevens guitar solo so I can crank it up a bit more |

"Love singing in the car, only place I can really when you sound like a cat being strangled At 4.30 this morning the drive to work was music from the live aid concert "
Doesn't seem like 30 years ago that it was on  |
