Crank It Up!
 

Crank it up... Again!

NHRA Drag Racing - Hell Yeah! - YouTube

While I was out on a solo drive the other night, I started feeling sentimental about how long the Dangermobile and I have been together now.

HELEN REDDY LIVE! - YOU AND ME AGAINST THE WORLD - THE QUEEN OF 70s POP - PAUL WILLIAMS - YouTube

Or if you're square like me you'll enjoy a little Udo Jürgens :-)
Aber Bitte mit Sahne - Udo Jürgens - YouTube

How do you say, "what crap" in German ?

Now we're talking !



Mac Davis - Baby Don't Get Hooked on Me - YouTube

I couldnt help but throw something odd in there hahaha "So ein Mist" is what you could say in German...

This song is almost as good as having Litronics !


DEBBIE BOONE SINGS " YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE " STEREO - YouTube

How about some German lounge kitsch !

Peter Thomas Sound Orchestra feat. Senta Berger - Vergiss Mich, Wenn Du Kannst - YouTube

That's Nice!

No, I don't have a life. Just spent my Saturday night watching everyone of these videos (had to watch "Jeannie" twice).

Here's my contribution. And how uncool was it to be in a band and have to wear glasses.

Hard to look bad, even with glasses, when you are rockin' a Les Paul!

Embarrassing Ommissions
 

I am seriously disheartened and disappointed that NOBODY, especially one whose initials are "J" and "D", has yet offered this: JOHNNY RIVERS - Secret Agent Man 1966 - YouTube

Surely JD listened to that at least once whilst pursuing an arch nemesis through the Alps or making a getaway through an Eastern European city with stolen top-secret microfilm?

You all ought to be ashamed! Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Now for the really cheesy ones, try any one of these:
Jim Stafford-Spiders and Snakes - YouTube

Shaving Cream Song - YouTube

Maureen Mcgovern - "The Morning After" from the Poseidon Adventure - YouTube

Brand New Key - YouTube

DBear

Great choice in music. I thought that I was the only one who liked the "Gouda" ! As far as Johnny Rivers is concern, nice enough guy, but he was never anything more than a wannabe "square badge" in the world of secret agents.

More driving music.... Happy T day to everyone... :D

Whoa ! What a gem !



You Take My Breath Away - Rex Smith - YouTube

Right up your listening alley JD

Boobs A Lot - The Holy Modal Rounders - YouTube

My choice of music when driving my Porsche is this:

Best Progressive Vocal House and Trance 2011 (45 min mix by Dr. Christ) - Part 1 of 4 - YouTube

Nothing like progressive trance to keep the rhythm high!!!!

Great choice of some progressive House Music...
Just perfect for a nice drive in the city at Night when everybody is sleeping and the roads are almost empty !

♫ Best Progressive House Mix 2012 Vol. #7 [HD] ♫ Meets Sunset Melodies - YouTube

Wow, what talent !


Olivia Newton-John Have You Never Been Mellow (Live 1975) - YouTube

Totally agree... Everyone loves Olivia.

Here is also awesome talent, same era:

Carpenters - Top Of The World - 1978 - YouTube

Carpenters (Quad Mix) Only Yesterday RARE HQ Sound - YouTube

In The Air Tonight - Miami Vice Style!
 

Now this is styling !





Paul Mauriat - "Love Is Blue" (1968) - YouTube

The boys of summer REMIX

Dj Sammy - The Boys Of Summer (HQ) - YouTube

Come on... We all know Don Henley's original version of the Boys of Summer is the one and only! And a great driving song.

But here are a couple of my suggestions:

Golden Earring - Radar love - YouTube

U2 - Beautiful Day - YouTube

It's just like having the top down !



Fifth Dimension - Up Up And Away -1969 - YouTube

I submit the following classic with lyrics EVERYBODY can sing along to.

Muppet Show - Mahna Mahna...m HD 720p bacco... Original! - YouTube

I'll bet that neither you or anyone else on this forum knows the origins of that song. In fact, I bet the folks at Sesame Street don't either. Otherwise they would never have used it on the show !

Actually, I'm willing to offer one of my special Johnny Danger Keychains to any member who can explain the origins of that song !!!!

Weirdly enough, the original song is from an Italian soft-core porno movie called "Sweden - Heaven and Hell". Here is the link explaining the origins and incorporation into the Muppet song:

&ldquo;Mahna Mahna&rdquo;: How a ditty from a soft-core Italian movie became the Muppets&rsquo; catchiest tune. - Slate Magazine

Either Jim Henson and his staff were in the dark as to the true origins of the song or they were perpetrating a clever inside joke for the adults "in the know" to enjoy while they were forced to listen to the Muppet songs ad nauseum.

RIP, JH!

This is "Drivin'" music...... Driving..Pearl Harbor & The Explosions-..79'....Girl Geo's TV - YouTube

Ah, this one works for me everytime I drive ...

The B-52's - Roam [Official Music Video] - YouTube

Awwww... I was going to guess it started as the background music to a Johnny Danger bedroom scene.
