Actually, there is an updated version of "I Can't Drive 55". Now it's "I Can't Drive 65."

Why use a CD based MP3 player, use the one like I have in the 44, a Rio Car (or EMPEG MK2a). 10gig laptop drive in there, more space with however big laptop drives get in capacity. Good luck finding one, though.

Crystal Method - Busy Child

"Ms. Christina drives a 944 . . ."

Song: Welcome to the Boomtown
Artists: David + David
Album: Boomtown
1986

Personally, I think it's one of the better albums to come out of the 80's. Although I think it's better for chilling in the house with a drink or a woman (or both) rather than driving.

I give a big thumbs up to the suggestion of "Radar Love."

How about "Detroit Rock City" by Kiss???

Wow. I remember that now. Personally, I am GLAD, and PROUD to not have known that! I respect the chilling with a woman thing, but that's what Donald Fagen is for.

Ah, and whoever suggested Speedway by Prodigy - good call, but Hyperspeed is still harder and more to the point! Granted, Music For the Jilted Generation is a highly underrated (or just generally not known/heard album), so kudos for bringing it up! Now, Fat of the Land, on the other hand...what happened?! Ughn.

T

Ah, and in regards to "I Can't Drive 55" I guess we have to give this one to the Prodigy again, if slightly out of context - "F--- 'em. And THEIR LAW!"

Man, SO many good tunes here.

I second AC/DC, The Stones, and a band that I don't think anyone has mentioned - Guns N Roses. Paradise City is my favorite.

Keep it going!
