[V8] Roger's Ten Best Cars List #1

[diemarthadie at aol.com]

PLEASE don't start a car song list... I do a radio show and ever few 
months we do a car-special... there are SO many great car songs.  Last 
time I did an hour of nothing but Cadillac referencing songs...  But if 
we're going down that road I get to quote the Dead Milken "No one will 
ever right a song about a nitro-burning funny car", then there's their 
"Bitchin' Camaro".  Don't forget "Beep, Beep", or "Making Love in a 
Subaru" or "Crown Victoria Custom '51" or "Hey Little Cobra" or... augh!

Bored?  Here's a recent show playlist for your research :)

Taj Mahal - Mercedes Benz
Warren Zevon - Studebaker
Steve Earle - Copperhead Road
Counting Crows - St. Robinson In His Cadillac
John Hiatt - Tennessee Plates
Rush - Red Barchetta

Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs - Back of a Car
Alice Cooper - Steal That Car
Quiet Riot - Slick Black Cadillac

Can't you just smell the apple pie? (through the cigar smoke that is...)

Remember the Flying Nun TV show?  Very cute and young Sally Field
drove a Jeepster in it.
And lets not forget the hit song "Jeepster For Your Love" by T-Rex.

Roger - I think you should make a requirement for your list that any
vehicle have a song written about it.

...great - now I have the words to "Hot Rod Lincoln" stuck in my head...
