    What song does it for you & your Ferrari? Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress by the Hollies is about how I see it.

    "Saturday night I was downtown
    Working for the FBI
    Sitting in a nest of bad men
    Whisky bottles piling high
    Bootlegging boozer on the west side,
    Full of people who are doing wrong
    Just about to call up the DA man
    When I heard this woman singing a song
    A pair of 45's made me open my eyes
    My temperature started to rise
    She was a long cool woman in a black dress,
    Just a 5-9 beautiful tall
    With just one look I was a bad mess
    'Cos that long cool woman had it all
    I saw her headed towards the table,
    Like a tall walking big black cat
    When Charlie said I hope that you're able boy
    Well I'm telling you she knows where it's at
    Then suddenly we heard the sirens,
    And everybody started to run
    A-jumping out of doors and tables
    When I heard somebody shooting a gun
    Well the DA was pumping my left hand
    And she was a-holding my right
    Well I told her don't get scared
    'Cos you're gonna be spared
    Well I've gotta be forgiven
    If I wanna spend my living
    With a long cool woman in a black dress,
    Just a 5-9 beautiful tall
    With just one look I was a bad mess
    'Cos that long cool woman had it all.
    Had it all ...
    Had it all ...
    Had it all ...
    Had it all ..

    "She Was Hot"; song and video/Mick Jagger with Anita Morris making the moves--she's like a human Ferrari should be! Erotic, long-legged, flexible, quick, steamy, powerful, responsive, a little demanding but well worth it...The car, THE CAR....

    I have always thought of classical pieces while driving mine; after all, it is a "classic". At various times the overture from "The Barber of Seville" and the triumphal/grand march from "Aida" have come to mind. Also, Mendelssohn's "Italian" Symphony.

    Of course, if I have the top off and am wearing a Hawaiian shirt, then the theme from "Magnum P.I." comes to the fore!

    The Wheel is turning and you can't slow down
    You can't let go and you can't hold on
    You can't go back and you can't stand still
    If the thunder don't get you then the lightning will

    Chorus:
    Won't you try just a little bit harder,
    Couldn't you try just a little bit more?
    (Repeat)

    Round round robin run around
    Gotta get back where you belong
    Little bit harder just a little bit more
    Little bit further than you've gone before

    Small wheel turn by the fire and rod
    Big wheel turn by the grace of God
    Every time that wheel turn 'round
    Bound to cover just a little more ground


    "The Wheel", words by Robert Hunter, music by Jerry Garcia

    Andrea Bocelli, no question.
    Sempre sempre

    Dopo un giorno cosi
    Come e dolce la sera stare qui con te
    Questa notte verra come un pegno d’amore
    Dopo tanta aridita
    La tua acqua bagnera
    La riva mia si plachera
    Ti cercavo da sempre,
    Sempre, sempre, sempre sempre
    Sognavo I tuoi sapori
    Camminando fianco I muri
    E adesso che mi stai
    Vicina piu che mai
    O sforio piano al buio
    Il rosa caldo del mondo tuo

    Mi dimentico gli inverni
    Che ti trovi nei ritorni
    Sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre
    E forse piu importante il domani del presente
    Sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre
    E una parola sola...c’e tutto quella che vorrei
    Viviamo in velocita consumando
    Di fretta tutto quanto ma
    Questo istante vedrai non potra mai finere
    Tanta gente intorno a me
    Ed ognuno pensa a se
    Tu dove sei? mi manchi sai.

    Sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre
    La vita dura un niente
    Sara piu grande insieme sempre,
    Sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre
    In questa mia parola c’e una promessa
    Solati daro ogni istante
    Perche tu sei grande piu del cuore
    Mio aperto e vigile saro
    Sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre
    E forse piu importante
    Il domani del presente sempre,
    Sempre, sempre, sempre, sempre
    E una parola sola ma e una scommessa
    Sai sara sempre cosi
    Cosi dolce la sera stare qui
    Con te e la notte verra
    Come un pegno d’amore.

    And for the home folks:
    "They call me the breeze" - Lynard Skynard

    Call me the breeze
    I keep blowin’ down the road
    Well now they call me the breeze
    I keep blowin’ down the road
    I ain’t got me nobody
    I don’t carry me no load

    Ain’t no change in the weather
    Ain’t no changes in me
    Well there ain’t no change in the weather
    Ain’t no changes in me
    And I ain’t hidin’ from nobody
    Nobody’s hidin’ from me
    Oh, that’s the way it’s supposed to be

    Well I got that green light baby
    I got to keep movin’ on
    Well I got that green light baby
    I got to keep movin’ on
    Well I might go out to california
    Might go down to georgia
    I don’t know

    Well I dig you georgia peaches
    Makes me feel right at home
    Well now I dig you georgia peaches
    Makes me feel right at home
    But I don’t love me no one woman
    So I can’t stay in georgia long

    Well now they call me the breeze
    I keep blowin’ down the road
    Well now they call me the breeze
    I keep blowin’ down the road
    I ain’t got me nobody
    I don’t carry me no load
    Oooh mr breeze

    Well, as my 348 has been in the shop for a month, and since I'm a Todd Rundgren fan, the car has most certainly been singing "Broke Down and Busted" from Runt.

    Hopefully soon we will be hearing "Can't Stop Running" from Nearly Human.

    Cheers
