Shelby Tunes?!

Recommended Posts

Those on the board lucky enough to have orders in will soon be driving their dream car. :shift:

 

Your car will have 3 "voices":

 

first will be the 500HP monster under the hood... growling and "whining" in all it's supercharged glory!

second will be the rear tires screaming for help as you pour on the power! :burnout:

third will be the sound system! :yahoo:

 

here is my question to you all:

What is the "perfect" song to be played as we drive our shelby's home?

 

interested to hear your responses. I plan to use your suggestions (and a few of my own) to compile a CD with some @$$-kickin tunes to make the drive even more incredible and memorable!

 

Remember, your first drive will only happen once... be prepared with some tunes that get your juices flowing...doctor's orders!

Wasn't planning on listening to the radio on the drive home when I eventually get the car, but if I was going to listen to a song, probably Bad Motor Scooter by Montrose. Try driving to that slow! (Only good thing Sammy did)

C'mon, Bone Doc - tell 'em where you got this idea from!

 

Plagiarism! :happy feet:

 

BUSTED! :censored::doh:

 

reminds me of my college days... :hysterical::party:

 

Of course, your post got me going on this topic, professor!

 

i thought it needed a dedicated thread though....

 

let's see what we get out of this "call for tunes"

 

i'll bet before the thread is done, we'll have a rockin' soundtrack worthy of the beast!

 

we'll all benefit!

Ian Hunter - You're Never Alone With A Schizophrenic

Steve Forbert - JackRabbit Slim

My choices:

1. Radar Love. (Golden Earring).

2. Born to Run. (B. Springsteen).

3. Hey, little Cobra. (Beach Boys).

4. And around dusk, near the end of the drive, when I'm getting close to home:

"Green Onions". (Booker T and the MG's).

:rockon:

(son of GT - Hey Little Cobra was Ronnie & the Datyonas!)

 

Bone doc: Gotcha! :happy feet:

 

Yes - I agree - this deserves a stand-alone thread.

 

Tunes and cars go together - like whiskey and beer.

 

When I picked up my '03 Mach 1 (now gone) in Richmond, I had Bad to the Bone ready to slip into the CD, but found myself lowering the windows for the ride home - just listening to the 32V engine make sounds of joy.

 

For your pennance - at least go read my 10 ways to alleviate PSDS on that thread! :shift:

 

ps - Nationwide by ZZTop has to be mentioned.

All good tunes so far... :party:

(I'm kind of glad no one's said "Mustang Sally" - good song, but way too clichéd for this modern car!)

 

 

That'll be perfect when we can order the Grande version with the halo vinyl roof.

 

:shift:

Oh my..........I can't believe nobody has mentioned *the* best Mustang song ever.........

 

Black Sunshine - White Zombie

 

Additionally, I'd recommend Walk by Pantera for those of you with the Shaker system. Might wanna add Mannish boy, as well. Just my helpful suggestions. :)

 

*edit* I believe that last song is by Muddy Waters

Cliched or not it's still a great song and great for just cruising ,since I wont be letting it rip until after the break in it's my choise for the drive home.

"Get over it" by the Eagles after the break in . [ can't wait ]

I think the first song I'll crank while driving (and it will likely be used sparingly thereafter) is Oh Yeah, by Yellow (from the movie Secret of My Success). Then, I might have to fire up the theme from The Sopranos.

 

After that it will be mostly Sirius channel 15.
