Driving FAAAAAAAST

Got this idea from Carby's thread. Which song raises the hair on the back of your neck and makes your right foot the heaviest?

For me it's gotta be Highway Star (live version) from Deep Purple, Made in Japan.

Whoa!

Has anyone heard Faithless - Insomnia?

That song is a baddddd when I play it in my BMW.

The fcar doesnt have much of a radio to speak of.

 

I know this one sounds crazy but>>>>>the Theme from Zorba the Greek, performed by Herb Alpert and the Tiajuana Brass. It starts out with a slow definite Greek sounding beat and continually speeds up during the whole song until it is beating quicker than can be at the end. If you use the throttle the same way you will driving real fasssssssssstttt by the time it ends.

 

The Minuet (3rd Movement) from Haydn's 94th Symphony in G major (The Suprise Symphony).

Man I need help

some great songs in there

 

Man, there are sooo many! Lemme think, Lemme think!!! Hmmmm...

There are so many for fast driving and what shall I say "DRAMATIC driving".
Don't make fun of me but here's some Judas Priest's "Turbo Lover" & "You got Another Thing Coming",& "Breaking the Law".
Also alot of Iron Maiden's songs for fast freeway driving, such as "Ace's High", "Trooper", "2 minutes to Midnight", "Caught Somewhere in Time".
I know I know, they are all old songs and are heavy metal but what can I say? The drum beats are AWESOME and fast paced and the bass, guitar, vocals awesome!!! Oh also there is Queen's "Don't stop me now" , Def Leppard's "Photograph"(I think that one is more for the dramatic feel=P) and Ozzy's "Crazy Train" and also "Shot in the Dark". Man, try some of those songs! Especially Iron Maiden songs! I owe all my tickets to them!!!HA!

 

Wait! 1 MORE!!! Iron Maiden's "Waisted years" The beginning is nice!!!
Oh wait another 1! Motley Crue's "Livewire" and "She's got the Looks that Kill"!
And also alot of Van Halen songs!!! Especially from "Top Gun" and also that movie "Iron Eagle"!

 

kick start my heart-motley crue

 

Yea and also Motely Crue's "Wild Side"!

 

Steppenwolf's Magic Carpet Ride.

 

Funny. I either drive fast or I am listening to music. Maybe it´s because I am a musician myself.
