The songs that continually get me going..........believe it or not..........are by the Beach Boys. Little Duece Coupe comes to mind....which in it's twisted state seems to change the lyrics to "She's my Little MINI Coop-(er)....."

I Get Around seems to have a similar effect.

 

I am going to merge this thread with a venerable one from 2002.

 

Ditto!

 

man, i might scare some of you with a few of my selections...
rock:
Slipknot: Heratic Anthem
Mudvayne: Death blooms
Guns and roses: Mr Brownstone

Techno, Trance, Breakbeats:

Baby anne
Brooklyn Bounce
Lock and load
Darude
.......i usually let the albums just play through...electronica usually settles me...

 

Well I am almost embarrased to admit it but my official COOPER song is: Made in England by Elton John! LOL

 

Ok, so I don't "motor" yet, but my mp3 player has had these on repeat:

We Are Scientists
Head Automatica
Panic! At The Disco
Wilco (saw them when they were in Charlottesville - amazing)
Anna Nalick (so relaxing!)
Arcade Fire
Damone

 

My latest favorites (and that tend to make me want to speed)

Map Of The Problematique - Muse
Knights of Cydonia - Muse (I pretend my car is a horse with this one)

 

Katherine- Wilco and Arcade Fire are on my list right now too!

along with,

the Wolf Parade
the Decemberists
Clap Your Hands Say
the White Stripes
the Kings of Leon

and, most importantly,

Neutral Milk Hotel, which I often find myself not singing, but screaming along with...

Favorite Motoring Music... All starts off with one song...

The Clash - Story of the Clash
Kasabian - (sorry, I can't remember the album name off the top of my head)
The Chemical Brothers - The Singles
Gomez - Out West (Live at the Filmore)

 

For the past week it's pretty much been

The Chemical Brothers feat. Q-tip - Galvanize difinitely drive faster with this one. You've probably heard some of it in the bud select commercial with the cigarette boat.

Peaches - Rock the Shocker

 

i have been pretty happy with daedlus, aphex twin and amon tobin lately.

 

The Blue October CD, "Foiled" and anything by the Goo Goo Dolls are the current favorites.
