Cruzin' Songs

[RoMax]

I'd like to enlist the help from my fellow V-Maxers. I want to start getting together some play lists for my ipod. What are some of your favorite songs to listen to while ripping up the black top. Ballads are ok if they are from rockers.

 

[The Beekeeper]

"Motor city madhouse".............Ted Nugent

 

[VMike]

"Nothing But A Good Time" by Poison always gets me going.unk:
Don't know if you like AC/DC but "Shoot To Thrill" and "Thunderstruck" are pretty jammin cruise songs at least IMO and your taste may vary! lmao!

 

[gamorg02]

[jester 42]

You can't go wrong with the whole damn soundtrack to Easy Rider.unk:

[bigrubbers4x4]

"i cant drive 55" by Sammy Hagar

Thanks guys, they are all great songs, keep them coming, i have a week long V-Max group trip to Vancouver Island this summer. I like all Rock and Metal, old and some new stuff. I've tried to think of a lot of songs, but this way i get a much broader variety.

I have an exact playlist for "this type" of music. I'd post the whole thing, except iTunes sucks and exports it as a jumbled mass of names, dates, MB sizes, file locations, and a whole other ton of crap nobody cares about that would make an absolute mess of this thread.

I'll go down it and pick a few at random

You can't go wrong by throwing some Grace Potter in the mix.

 

[mattness]

When the night falls down
I wait for you
And you come around
And the world's alive
With the sound of kids
On the street outside

When you walk into the room
You pull me close and we start to move
And we're spinning with the stars above
And you lift me up in a wave of love...

Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth ?
Ooh heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh heaven is a place on earth

When I feel alone
I reach for you
And you bring me home
When I'm lost at sea
I hear your voice
And it carries me

In this world we're just beginning
To understand the miracle of living
Baby I was afraid before
But I'm not afraid anymore

Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth ?
Ooh heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh heaven is a place on earth
