Let’s see what we can come up with, you know the kind of thing, the kind of tracks that you’d find on those ‘driving’ albums that you could always buy on cassette (ask your dad, kids) in petrol stations and motorway service stations.

NO LINKING TO YOUTUBE, FOR THE AID OF THOSE OF US WITH OPPRESSIVE CORPORATE FIREWALLS

I’ll start with a couple:

Don Henley – Boys of Summer
Bryan Adams – Run to You

Oh, yeah, and when posting, as yourself “would DezB like this?” If the answer is yes, you probably need to try again 🙂

Kenny Loggins – Danger Zone
Meat Loaf – Bat out of Hell
Alice Cooper – Poison

Thin Lizzy – The Boys are Back in Town
Rainbow – Since You’ve Been Gone

Oh, yeah,

I was going to suggest ‘Yello – Oh Yeah’

“would DezB like this?” If the answer is yes, you probably need to try again

but fell at the first hurdle

Great driving songs:

I got bored

STW 80’s playlist

spotify app

Slackboy – good effort, but you seem to have added a lot of Big Country…

copied the damn album rather than the song.

Utah Saints – Something Good

The Prodigy – Diesel Power

Not a traditional driving track but it says diesel in the name…..

Did Tom Cochrane and Red Rider make it over here?

If so, then ‘Life is a Highway’.

It was pretty much written to be a driving anthem.

Followed!

There’s tonights drive home sorted!!

Did Tom Cochrane and Red Rider make it over here?

If so, then ‘Life is a Highway’.

Oh, well done sir, I loved (and had forgotten about) that tune

Sons of the Stage – World of Twist.

Couple of good ‘uns here –

Neil young – Keep on rockin in the free world
This Lizzy – whiskey in the jar

The Prodigy – Diesel Power

Not so much 80’s though. More ’97 ish.

Obvious ones:

Bruce Springsteen – Born to Run
Fleetwood Mac – The Chain

Not obvious, but they’re appropriate unless the point is that all tracks should be well known and well worn classics:

Cracker – Let’s Go for a Ride
Soul Asylum – Just Like Anyone
Ben Harper and Relentless 7 – Fly One Time

I don’t use Spotify so I’d appreciate it if someone can add these to the playlist for me. 🙂

Edit: Oops, I missed the decade requirement with all of my tunes!

How about the following to make up for it?

Dire Straits – Money for Nothing or Walk of Life
Yello – The Race

How about Sammy Hagar/Montrose ‘Space Station no.5’

Good one.
🙂

How about The One I Love, REM?

Air – A Horse With No Name

White stripes – Little cream skoda
Chemical brothers – Exit Planet X

Were either of those tracks released in the 80’s?

KISS – Rock and Roll all night
