Greatest driving songs

#1 personal favorite:Ramblin' Man by the Allman Brothers.

In addition to the poll options, other favorites include:

Ain't Goin' Down till the Sun Comes Up by Garth Brooks

Let's Go by The Cars

An unconventional choice, but Fat-Bottomed Girls by Queen always makes me crank the volume and hit the gas a little harder.

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen

Paradise by the Dashboard Light by Meatloaf

Hi Fish! Let's Go, by the Cars, is a good one to start with. I also like the following:

1. "Ride My See-Saw" by the Moody Blues

2. "Don't Get Me Started" by Phil Collins

3. "In The Air" also by Phil Collins

4. "Dancing in the Dark" by Bruce Springsteen

5. "Small Town," by John Cougar Mellencamp

That's about all I can think of right now. That's my "Ocean's top 5." lol

Hey Ocean, I'm not a Springsteen fan but the other picks are great. I love the Moody Blues.

Steppenwolf and in addition:
Daytime Driving -- Anything by George Thorogood
Nighttime Driving -- Anything by Mark Lanegan

Just wait till you get some irate fundie screaming about how your poll only contains devil music. Where is "My God is an Awesome God"!?!

Wow! You even differentiate between night and day driving. You have discriminating musical driving taste.

Great song! Saw them at the Borgata in Atlantic City last summer. They played so much of their old bluesier stuff from the 70's. It was great. They saved most of the fun Eliminator stuff for the end.

1. Du Hast - Rammstein

2. Closer - Nine Inch Nails

3. Firestarter - Prodigy

I loved the Cars back in the day. I saw them in 1986 when I was 19, same year I saw Boston in concert.

I think that would make my truck slow down to a halt! But hey, it only matters that YOU like it. To each her own :)

Headlong by Queen. Another great tune.

I love Queen. Saw them with Paul Rodgers, meaning they also did Bad Company songs (!) two years ago. Last month, we saw a Queen tribute band headed by Gary Mullen, the winner of the UK's equivalent of American Idol. They were excellent and he was dead-on with the vocals and stage presence of Mercury.

Thanks for the video clip. I saw Matchbox Twenty several years ago. Good pick!

Never heard of 'em! But it definitely had a great driving song riff and beat to it.
