Just shutup and drive

The song...not a comment

Hey; that was cute! I could bookend the playlist with that song, and this one (second tune):

City Of The Angels by Wang Chung
9:16 of acceleration.
Trust me.
Only short clips available, but worth the $1.99 on Amazon without reservation.

I'm listening to Stan now. I like a more driving beat for those long trips.

Bookends are nice.
You need one Bangles song-- at least, though.

I think for a road trip it would have to be "Different Light," or "Walk Like an Egyptian." Maybe "Going Down to Liverpool," in a pinch.

Here's a revelation:

The girl's got serious skills.

I'd go with "Hazy Shade of Winter," "Walk Like" and "Eternal Flame." "Cat Scratch Fever" to answer your original question. Others for your trip mix?

Moody Blues "Nights in White Satin" and "Question of Balance"

Annie Lennox "Sweet Dreams"

Golden Earing "Radar Love"

Traffic "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys"

Lara Brannigan "Gloria"

Focus "Hocus Pocus"

Emerson, Lake, and Palmer "From The Beginning"

As a start. . .

Queen "We Are The Champions" and "Who Wants To Live Forever?"

It makes your passengers nervous.

You're right: "Hazy Shade" would work out well, even without the vodka and limes. I'm not a big "Eternal Flame" girl, but I do like "Manic Monday."

Wish I could get hold of Katrina & the Waves' "Red Wine and Whiskey."

The has to be an Alice Cooper--probably "Eighteen." (Or even "School's Out.")

The Golden Earring thing is a must, and Deep Purple's "Highway Star."

I might put on AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap," because who's going to listen to this but me?

I think, with Queen, I'm more likely to go off the beaten path and either put in "Keep Yourself Alive," or one of the offbeat tracks from Sheer Heart Attack—"Brighton Rock," maybe, and/or "Flick of the Wrist." (Along with Roger Taylor's "I'm in Love with my Car," which is from Night at the Opera.)

And I need to add "Upholstery," from the Phantom of the Paradise soundtrack. And maybe "Somebody Super Like You."

Wall of Voodoo's "Call of the West" is a good one--and maybe "Lost Weekend."

I'll also need a Bowie, and a Jethro Tull. Union rules, you know.
