Queen - I'm In Love With My Car (A Night At The Opera - 1975)

The machine of a dream
Such a clean machine
With the pistons a pumpin
And the hub caps all gleam

When Im holdin your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When my hands on your grease gun
Oh its like a disease son

Im in love with my car
Gotta feel for my automobile
Get a grip on my boy racer rollbar
Such a thrill when your radials squeal

Told my girl Ill have to forget her
Rather buy me a new carburetor
So she made tracks sayin
This is the end now
Cars dont talk back
Theyre just four wheeled friends now

When Im holdin your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When Im cruisin in overdrive
Dont have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive

Im in love with my car
Gotta feel for my automobile
Im in love with my car
String back gloves in my automolove

Not sung by Freddie but by the drummer, Roger Taylor, who was a car fanatic, apparently.

I made a car music CD before aswell, but I have a CD player in the car that can support MP3 files, so I was able to put over 8 hours of music on one CD. Far handier than having to change between CD's.

Dennis Leary - I'm An Asshole.

Great one for doing 50mph in the overtaking lane of a motorway!

Data Cds FTW!!! Seriously, nothing beats just throwing a few of your favorite albums on to one cd then putting the stereo on random...

Den Den

Are you trying to tell me that you have a CDR player in your car in Limerick. I did'nt think the instructions for Traffic Lights had arrived yet. :rolleyes:

Its NOT about Quantity, its about QUALITY!
This thread is about quality!
And most posters so far are getting that vibe.

What?

You still get good 'quality' music from MP3's, AND you can fit more on the disc.

No need to jump down someones throat for making a suggestion.

I wasnt refering to sound quality. But quality music.
Remeber the days of making tapes? I mean you really had to think about it unless you were real lazy.
