1M iPod Music List

bayer · 08-08-2011, 08:04 PM

Only a couple of days left until my PCD!!

Building my iPod Playlist for the drive home from SC. I have AC/DC "Hells Bells" leading it off

Anybody got any good suggestions??

sergeremi · 08-08-2011, 08:23 PM

i hate you. But congrats!

Um, always good for badass driving...

The Heavy - How You Like Me Now
Does It Offend You, Yeah? - We Are Rockstars (this will definitely get you a ticket)

Then you can pretty much play U2's - The Joshua Tree, start to finish at some point. Awesome road trip album.

Papethova · 08-08-2011, 10:17 PM

I cant drive 55?

v1k0d3n · 08-08-2011, 10:40 PM

Boston - Foreplay/Long Time. Great driving song! Actually just put the whole damn album on there, because Smokin' is also a great driving song.

Not sure what your music preferences are, but I'm all over the place. Gonna include some NIN, Black Crowes, Led Zepplin, Journey, Band of Horses, Mumford and Sons....those will all be playing on my way home from SC!

tkbr0wn · 08-08-2011, 10:49 PM

Ummmm, Cake's "The Distance" should be the first song you play when you crank it up to leave the Delivery Center...

....engines pumping and thumping in time...The green light flashes, the flags go up...

Artemis · 08-09-2011, 05:22 AM

Dire Straits - "Money For Nothing"
Used to death in the eighties by music shops to demonstrate hi-end hifi installations. Still rocks.
...oh wait, do you here Sting crooning in the intro "I want my M Coupé !" ?

Artemis · 08-09-2011, 05:33 AM

Dire Straits - "Planet Of New Orleans"
Another cool way to start out with IMHO (exquisite quality sound - ideal for a car hifi demo)
"If she was an ace and I was just a jack and the cards were never seen, we could have been the king and the queen."

Jerry Was a Race Car Driver - Primus

"
Jerry was a race car driver
And he drove so goddamned fast
He never did win no checkered flag
But he never did come in last
Jerry was a race car driver
He'd say "El solo number one"
With a bocephus sticker
On his 442 he'd light 'em up
Just for fun
"

A strange kind of song,... this one is good for a little head bangin'.

Great thread. I couldn't find my Boston CD, so downloaded Foreplay / Long Time and all I can say is that song never gets old!

By the way somewhat off topic, but does anyone else find the premium hifi on the 1M to be a bit artificial-sounding? The 350-watt system on the Civic Si of the past 5 years has *much* more clarity and fidelity.

T1T2GRE · 10-11-2011, 10:13 AM

anything...AC/DC
No More Tears - Ozzy Osbourne
Dance Yrself Clean - LCD Soundsystem
Girl I Love You - Massive Attack
Enter Sandman - Metallica
Just for Today - Hybrid
Kashmir - Led Zeppelin
Monsta Mack - Sir Mix-a-Lot (don't laugh!)
Mmm Skyscraper - Underworld
Radio GaGa - Queen
Sunday Drive - Stephane Pompougnac
War Pigs - Cake remake
Endless Summer of the Damned - Bauhaus

there are just too many...

Franklin Joseph · 10-11-2011, 10:43 AM

Here's a few on my burnt cd. I listen to pandora on my iphone.

Snow Patrol - Run
Adele - Someone Like You
Jon Schmidt - Pachelbel Meets U2
Adele - Make You Feel
The Section Quartet/Ben Folds - Such Great Heights
Glen Hansard - Falling Slowly
Playing for Change - Stand By Me
Hayley Westenra - Many Times Always
Vega Choir - Creep
AR Rahman - If i rise

T1T2GRE · 10-11-2011, 11:27 AM

True true...for some reason the Cake one has grown on me. It's definitely Cake-y though, not nearly as strong as the original. But if I started listing all the Judas Priest, BS, BOC, Led Zep etc. it'd be a longass list.

Hahah...what a coincidence. I am a big hybrid fan an listened to the track on my way back home from work.

I can also recommend Phil Collins -In the Air tonight (Extended Version). A very good recording for the car stereo.

DrSpock · 10-11-2011, 03:24 PM

How about Meatloaf's "I would do anything for love"?

For me personally, should I be lucky enough to get one of these cars, I plan on blasting U2's "All I want is you" upon my first drive with just me and the 1M.

Too bad you didn't get a BSM 1M, because the obvious recommendation then would be AC/DC "Back in Black".

Dee Pee · 10-11-2011, 10:45 PM

Shaft - Isaac Hayes
The Saint Theme - Orbital
On Her Majesty's Secret Service - Propellerheads
Spybreak! - Propellerheads
Battle Without Honor or Humanity - Tomayasu Hotei
Fighting 17th - Hans Zimmer
The Magnificent Seven - Elmer Bernstein
Outlands - Daft Punk

BMW Gator · 10-11-2011, 11:01 PM

Lots of great songs listed - but - Golden Earring's classic "Radar Love" has to make the list! A song that will add at least 20mph to whatever speed you're driving!

Artemis · 12-21-2012, 03:31 PM

Earlier today I tested the 2012 remaster of the 1991 "Blue Lines" album of Massive Attack on the Harman Kardon sound system of my 1M:

IndyMike · 12-21-2012, 06:16 PM

Interesting the type of tunes that people on here like.

I grew up listening to mostly just heavy metal, so this would be a list of my favorite predominately driving oriented songs in no particular order, although metal dominate:

I Can't Drive 55 - Sammy Hagar
Trans Am (Highway Wonderland) - Sammy Hagar
Runnin' with the Devil - Van Halen
Highway Star - Deep Purple
Drivin' Wheel - Foghat
Highway to Hell - AC/DC
Rocky Mountain Way - Joe Walsh
Life in the Fast Lane - The Eagles
Smokin' - Boston
Hot Rod Lincoln - Commander Cody
Souped Up Ford - Rory Gallagher
Highway 61 Revisited - Johnny Winter
Free Ride - Edgar Winter
Rev on the Red Line - Foreigner
Rock me Amadeus - Falco
Bad Motor Scooter - Montrose
Code of the Road - Nils Lofgren
Back on the Road Again - REO Speedwagon
Big City Nights - Scorpions
Rock Bottom - UFO
Run Runaway - Slade
Run Run Run - Jo Jo Gunne
Shakin' - Eddie Money
Driver's Seat - Sniff and the Tears
Heading Out to the Highway - Judas Priest

and what must be an obvious choice:

Turbo Lover - Judas Priest

ozinaldo · 12-21-2012, 06:36 PM

Heaven and Hell, full album from Black Sabbath. If M button pressed on an open highway that's Heaven and if I am in heavy traffic crawling then it is Hell.

When I get sick of it I switch to Balls to the Walls of Accept basically and go back to Black Sabbath after a while.

When there is someone else in the car I may put Argus from Wishbone Ash.

I have an extra iphone, not using it, still sticking with the CD changer

Oh yeah..... been there..................have all of that!

Also others like Dokken, Dio, Hendrix, Mott the Hoople and Thin Lizzy.

I like my music hard driving, fast and a bit loud........like my cars.

It's only by God's good grace I even have any hearing remaining at all.

Unfortunately, there's not that much in the way of new metal talent out there outside of these pioneer's of metal.
