Best Rock Song aobut a car?

[Lazymeatball]

the following are a bit off a stretch and are more about driving than a specific car but:

Judas Priest - Turbo Lover
Snoop Dogg - Doggs Tursimo 3 (it's funny to here him rap about a PT Cruiser)
Golden Earring - Twilight Zone
Motley Crue - Kickstart my heart

ok, none of these would be considered the Best, but all the good ones have been mentioned already, how about:

Rob Zombie - Draggula

[Al P]

Um, the clear winner is trampled under foot.


Grease me straight down, good electric
I could lay it on the road, mama, it ain’t no trick

Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout

Ooh, trouble-free transmission, helps your oil’s flow
Mama, let me pump your gas, mama, let me do it all

Talkin’ ’bout love, huh
Talkin’ ’bout love, ooh
Talkin’ ’bout

Take that heavy metal underneath your hood
Baby, I could work all night, leave a big pile of tubes

Talkin’ ’bout lo-ove
Talkin’ ’bout lo-ove
Talkin’ ’bout

Automobile club-covered, really built in style
Special is tradition, mama, let me feast my eyes

Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout

Factory air-conditioned, wind begins to rise
Guaranteed to run for hours, mama, and brand-new tires

Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout

Groovin’ on the freeway, blazes on the road
]from now on my gasoline is even gonna conk your hair

Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout

I can’t stop talkin’ about
I can’t stop talkin’ about

Ooh, yeah-yeah, yes, ah, drive on

Ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yes, I’m comin’ through

Come to me for service every hundred miles
Baby, let me check your valves, fix your overdrive

Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout

Ooh, yes, fully automatic, comes in any size
Makes me wonder what I did, before I got synchronized

Talkin’ ’bout lo-ove
Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout

Ooh, feather-light suspension, coils just couldn’t hold
I’m so glad I took a look inside your showroom doors

Talkin’ ’bout love
Talkin’ ’bout lo-oo-oh-ove
Talkin’ ’bout

Oh yeah, oh yeah

Oh, I can’t stop talkin’ about love
I can’t stop talkin’ about love
Ooh, let me go in down, go in down, go in down, go in down, go in down, yes

I can’t stop talkin’ about
I can’t stop talkin’ about lo-oh’, baby
I can’t stop talkin’ about love, or my baby
I can’t stop talkin’ about love, my baby, uh, my baby, my baby, yeah

Unnh, push, push, push it, push, push

Ounheahhonhouh

I like:
Aliotta, Haynes, and Jeremiah - "Lake Shore Drive", but I'm from Chicago, so maybe I'm biased [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Built to Spill - Car
?

Not really about the car. I guess maybe Joyride by Built to Spill is good too, but it mostly uses a car as a metaphor.

Um...as I think of them, I'll edit or reply again.

Strangely enough...The Cars have no good songs in this category.


oh, and here, I'll FMOP...

Almost forgot. Judas Priest- Freewheel Burning.

Heading to the highway... far better than free wheel burning if you are gonna include Priest songs here.

Early Cars albums were awesome (Cars, Candy-O, Panorama, Shake it up). I guess the closest they got to a song about a car is "Drive". That's about when they started to go dowhill, too. Hmmm.
