I got sent it on MSN, played it a couple times because it was essential 80s cheeze, but i've come to like it. Works as a road-tune and good to sing along to
Jam the Breeze - Chris Richards (tumlers & grit album)
Jonny B Goode - Chuck Berry or a million others
Rockin' and Rollin' - Tommy Scott
The Jealous Kind - Chris Knight
are you 70 years old and listen to radio 2?
I admit it was because mum had put radio 2 on in the kitchen, and it was the bob harris (what an ugly MFer he is
) country music program. But 3 of them were what kicked off my train of thought here so i can't diss em. (Johnny B Goode... well, it just sounds like the tommy scott record)
i have the original pull out stereo in mine and the eject buttons missing on the tape player
I've got a replacement for that if you want it, fully functional - only a tenner plus postage
... original speakers, too.
anyooo back to the flow... not too sure on the crip chop turn this thing's taking, but, who'm i to censor
commentary... i find five major categories with what's been said so far
Surprise..
Otis Reading
kanye west, mario winans (who? time to get on t'file share)
Yes! (good)
the cardigans - my favourite game (maybe 'obvious')
warren g - regulate (the original song it sampled is right-on as well, but more chilled and less gangsta)
California Love - 2Pac
AC/DC - Highway to Hell (and Whole Lotta Woman
)
Yes!! (cheese)
White Snake - Here I go again.
Bon Jovi - Livin on a Prayer
Maybe..
dmx - x gonna give it to ya
Nooo!
Return of the Mack - Mark Morrison
See you when you get There - Coolio
Old people and cars - Dont mix.
Calâ„¢
Hehehe well it depends but i think that's a good general one! Lot of respect for those who give up their car and license because they know they can't handle it any more... tis a bit sad, but who knows what joy cybernetics might bring.
Can we get a law passed that once and for all makes wearing chequered or tartan headgear of any kind a more serious offense than travelling at 100 on a clear 4-lane (if you count the shoulder) strip of tarmac? Its certainly more dangerous.
OK I think i need to have a dig thru my tape and minidisc box now to see what other favourites I can find...
(here's one - Your Horoscope For Today by Wierd Al Yankovic (or several others by that wizard of odd). Fun, but maybe too extreme for everyday driving - attracts some odd stares, and it's too easy to get too far into being silly with it and forget to concentrate on the road)
.... but now i got to go to work
