    If I were to limit "driving" music to songs that explicitly mention driving a vehicle, I'd have to say that my favorites are:
    -Radar Love = Golden Earring
    -Asleep at the Wheel = The Bloodhound Gang
    -Hit and Run Holiday = The Thrill Kill Kult
    -Jesus Built My Hotrod = Ministry
    -40 Miles to Vegas = Southern Culture on the Skids

    ...and some more that escape me at the moment. I really should sit down with the collection and burn a real driving CD.

    in ipod i trust...

    according to my ipod here are the top 10 most (randomly) played songs in the VX... so I guess by default they're my current 'driving songs'...

    Sigur Ros: Untitled #8
    Beck: Girl
    Young Jeezy: Gangsta Music
    The Wrens: This Boy Is Exhausted
    At the Drive-In: One Armed Scissor
    Band of Horses: The Funeral
    Slim Thug: Already Platinum
    Built to Spill: Car
    Nirvana: Radio Friendly Unit Shifter
    Radiohead: There There

    Never played Ed Hunter. Have every CD. Iron Maiden. Hands-down, the best band ever. Up the Irons!

    I flew to Denver yesterday to pick up my 01 VX and drive it back to Park City, UT... Altogether right under 500 miles. My music line up was by album, not individual song because I had 7 or so hours of driving.

    Black Sabbath - Paranoid
    David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust
    Billy Idol - Best Hits
    Nightwish - Wishmaster & Once
    Lacuna Coil - All 4 albums (first time listening to Karmacode and it rocked!)
    Kidney Thieves - Trickstereprocess and some of Zer0space
    A Perfect Circle - Mer De Noms
    Nirvana - Nevermind & In Utero
    Tool - First 4 albums
    Theatre of Tragedy - Aegis

    I'd have to say the Black Sabbath, David Bowie, and Nightwish were the best albums for the ride.

    So, is it just me, or has anyone else ever had their CD changer loaded full of Tom Waits?







    Yeah, I guess it’s just me, isn’t it?
