Music That Suits The Car

Featured Replies

Been thinking about this for a while. We love music in the car, it makes you drive fast, or makes the drive bliss. Some prefer the exhaust note, like the guy who gave me phooey. 2 inch loud exhaust and am radio!

 

Now for my cars

 

In the hardtop, tape deck with the 1980 tape, the Angels, Dark Room. It's also got a radio transmitter so I can listen to usbs, sd's etc.

 

In the Valiant, CD, Iggy and the Stooges, 1969....

 

In the 'Cruiser, Franz Ferdinand, song Jacqueline, because as the song says, it's always better on holidays, so much better on holidays

 

 

What's your thing?

LMAO. I used to put a portable CD player in Val on the back seat. Then I mounted some under seat speakers and the CD under the dash.

 

Picked up the old am radio in the dash for 5 bucks because the wrecker classed it as an am radio.

 

He didn't really look and note it's ancient with all the old stations written on it. Out of a VF!

Initial D soundtrack :(

 

Just depends what mood I'm in.

Lets see where to start....

The Beach Boys

The Corrs

Aqua

Tommy Emmeanuel

The Traveling Wilburys

Shania Twain

Queen

 

But mostly stuff from around the 60's 70's. You know, good ol' rock n roll

:( Always suspected your a barbie girl....LMAO thanks for your input

I seem to attract cars without working stereos :(

 

That is all about to change :)

Is this thread about what music you listen to when driving, or what songs/genre you think best suits the style of your car?

 

Either way, here's my response.

Generally listening to one of the following:

Faith No More

Opeth

Dream Theater

Prodigy

Crystal Method

Chemical Brothers

Metallics

sonicanimation

General 80s and hard-rock/metal compilations

Old-skool hip-hop like De La Soul and Afrika Bambaata

Old-skool rock like AC/DC, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, The Who etc

 

As for what suits the car best, I'd say Faith No More's Album Of The Year. Released in 1997 (so the same year as the car was made), it was the last album from one of the most popular and prominent bands of the 80s and 90s (just as the AE102 was the last locally made Corolla which dominated the small-car market in the 80s and 90s), it's under-rated compared to the hey-day of The Real Thing and Angel Dust (the AE82 and AE92 respectively) but is surprisingly solid, well produced, and capable of blowing you away as long as you look past some of the stigma and accept it for what it is.

 

It also happens to be one of my favourite albums of all time, just as the AE10x is one of my favourite Corolla series of all time.

Nice....either!!!

As some have said it depends on the mood.

 

I find listening to banging tracks with some serious energy results in speeding, and listening to aggressive music results in aggressive driving and behaver.

 

So I tend towards more chilled songs... usually something with good lyirics in my vocal range so I can "sing" along... thank God for Dynamat

 

:(

Ah, you're a funny man :bash:

 

I'm enjoying listening to the 'We Are Young Money' album, not bad to chill to behind the wheel, be even better when i get my license next month :yes:
