Ok, i know theres a thread about racing music, but its more oriented towards fast music thats good to listen to when youre racing or driving.

However what im looking for is songs that are actually ABOUT racing or driving in general. Honestly, i know I must be wrong, but i can only thkink of a few off the top of head. Thats why im asking this in the first place, i want to know if theres possibly more car oriented music out there. Music type doesnt matter realy, so long as its ABOUT racing/cars.

Metalica : Fuel
Offspring : Bad Attitude
Rob Zombie : (damn i forget, Black something? He's chanting about his V8 in it.)
Revrend Horton Heat : The NASCAR song (pretty funny actually, and its older)

Anyothers that anybody knows? Im honestly at a loss myself...
 
I hate to say it but some of the rap songs on the NFS underground games that were produced for the game actually sound pretty good. Not all of them were produced for the game thou.
 
I know there's already a thread on this..I'm having a hell of a time finding it though. I'm sure somebody else will remember it.

I believe it was a little different though..somebody would post the lyrics to a song, and the rest of us had to guess which 'car song' it was. I'll find it eventually though, damnit...you bet your ass...

ok im gonna say that take the money and run, ramblin man, highway to hell, and gasoline have nothing to do with driving or cars, you could consider ramblin man it but its not its more about girls, and take the money and run isnt even close although it is a damn good song.
