Driving music - Toyota Yaris Forums

Since getting my lovely Yaris I've been making mix-CD after mix-mp3-CD. What are your favourite driving songs? Gin Blossom's "Hey jealousy" is great (especially since it came out when I was learning to drive), though Feeder's "Buck Rogers" is perfect for the situation.

"He's got a brand new car.... looks like a Toyota... It's got fabric seats, it's got an MP3 player-ayer-ayer....

I always listen to the killers or between the buried and me. Or Kelly Clarkson.

Stolen Babies, Unexpect, Ayreon, Ensiferum, Haggard, Kamelot, Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, Therion, Within Temptation, etc.
For long trips I love playing Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness. The song is just over an hour long and I prefer listening to it w/o interuptions.

I haven't in this car but I used to blast Orphaned Land, a progressive metal band from Israel that has a few songs in Hebrew and overall middle eastern influences in their found. Quite a bit of growling, especially in their older material. It's amusing to exploit the lack of knowledge in this country sometimes. Can't wait till they release their next album so I can blast that.

There's one segment of my commute home where, if I play it just right and the head wind isn't too strong (which doesn't happen too often), I can FAS for almost 4 miles. That is one hella-long warp stealth.

On that stretch there's nothing better to listen to than Atom Bomb by Fluke.

Conversely, in the warmer months, on my drive up the mountain in the morning when the sunlight comes through in that beautiful yellow tone, I have the window down and I'm tooling right along, nothing hits the spot like Pachelbel's Canon in D.

Classic Rock while playing cat and mouse on the highway. Green onions - Booker T, Slow Ride - Fog Hat, Spirit in the Sky - Norman Greenbaum, Roadhouse Blues - The Doors.

and something a little newer, Fire it up by Black Label Society
