Driving Music

[RandallNeighbour]

I've taken to blaring Pavorotti's Wedding Songs as loudly as I can tolerate while driving around town with the top down. It really makes everyone around me think I'm rich and snooty.

Then when no one is around I crank up La Grange by ZZTop, my favorite song in the whole world. In fact, the day I bought the car I knew I had to crank up some tunes from my home town band with the top down.

Creed is also good, and I also like Nickelback, but the lyrics are often so offensive I can't listen to them although the music itself is excellent for downshifting through corners

Shouldn't the correct answer be (D) Any opera by Wagner? Or is that reserved for the 911 group?

I have to admit that I am a little surprised to see so many ZZ top fans driving Porsche. I guess I'm a little senesitive since I get a lot of comments when I drive my PT crusier (j/k).

My boxster build date is in December and I will likely install satellite radio (XM, I like top tracks 45, and Deep tracks, 40), but I think I'll probably keep a few Phish cds (Hoist, Round Room and Farmhouse), some Tenacious D and some Bob Segar. Wait! I think I just filled up the trunk! (j/k). Of course, Steely Dan is a must too. On a side note, I was a little surprised a few weeks ago. The Dalai Lama spoke at a Neuroscience Conference in Washingto DC and before he spoke, the lecture hall pumped out Steely Dans' "Two against Nature" cd all the way up to "Cousin Dupree". I wonder if the Lama is a Dan fan...?

Tenacious D out of a Boxster?What is this world coming to!

I'll be sure to mix in the London Philharmonic Orchestra playing the tunes of Pink Floyd with the Tenenacious D.

I love slow jazz & pop so I usually play babyface and fourplay. The babyface's newest album (grown & sexy) is quite good IMO.

Goodness I am finding this post to be most bizarre! While most of these tunes can be classified as "good music," it doesn't seem to favor the sophisication that one would expect from German Car Enthusiasts.

Is it just me, or do some of these seem PERFECT for a Camaro?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, "to each their own" "diff'rent strokes" and all that jazz... but which one doesn't belong?

If we stick to the Box's German roots, I supposed Wagner is the only way to go!

Try:

James Dean by the Eagles. Especially if you have a silver Boxster.
