My first car was the cheapest salvage title I could find, broken tape deck and radio stuck on one channel. Based on era, the first song was probably something by Nickelback.
Your comment just kept getting worse. I love it.
Please tell us that you have moved on to a better car. That was a painful read hahaha.
Ha, literally sitting by my 2012 Toyota Camry on this Friday night waiting for the AC cleaner to do its thing. I loaned it to someone while I was out of town for a couple weeks and I got it back smelling of mold and mildew. I can’t drive it a mile without feeling ill. Tomorrow I will scrub and vacuum the interior. This “someone” has already moved to my blacklist.
So an upgrade from my high school car? Yes. A good car? Not really.
In the spirit of OPs question, and very appropriate to my situation, I’m listening to C’est la Vie by The Weathers.
I don’t have a driver’s license, forget a car.
I played Royal by Deon Custom and KRNE
Heeell yes! I used to blast Italics all the time. It’s from that wonderful music era of my life from 2014-2016 where I exclusively found music on SoundCloud.
You are my people.
I haven’t yet gotten a car, nor do I plan to.
Why not?
Because if you can operate without one, life is so much better.
Cars ruin cities.
But if a city is already ruined or you live in a village without a bus station, it makes travel a lot easier.
Yep. Sounds like you can’t really operate without one. :(
That sucks. I’m sorry.
I don’t remember after my first car. But I got a really big raise at work one year and bought the new Malibu the year it was redesigned. Black with leather interior. First song played:
Radar Love by Golden Earring
It’s a great fucking song to drive too fast to.
Must have been Lee Scratch Perry. Not a song, a handful of tapes played over and over and.
Probably something by the RHCP, but I cannot remember properly
I have never been happy about driving. I probably to turned the radio on and listen to whatever was playing on the local station. Might have been Champaigne with Chris Rock.
Back in the early 2000s I bought my first own car. It had a radio with cassatte. I had a mixtape that I carried around, with a walkman (albeit not the original one from Sony). When I drove the car home - stil with temporary number plates, because I needed to register the car to my name - the song Turn The Page played a few minutes into the drive. I will always associate this song with that particular event.
Dire Straits - Money for Nothing. It was on a cassette in my parents car. Not what I normally listen to, but it’s an alright song, and after having had to endure whatever they decided to listen to, that was what I decided to turn up.
I think the first thing I brought into the car with the intent to listen to it while driving was Dream Theater - Awake, freshly recorded from CD onto tape
I stuck Oracular Spectacular by MGMT into the CD player of my Miata (second car) when I bought it. I bought it in the winter when I couldn’t drive it so the album always brings me back to working on it.
Carmageddon soundtrack
I played “Like a River” to try out the sound system in a car I got recently. Does that count?
Is that from Ocie Elliott?
Bishop Briggs
REM’s Drive, I know it’s trite but I actually liked Blossom.
Eve 6 - “Open Road Song”
