I have two---Radar Love by Golden Earring and Can't Drive 55 by Sammy Hager.
My right foot just naturally goes down to the floor when these start playing..

Here's another vote for Radar Love... :iagree:
Runnin' Down a Dream by Tom Petty. I want to make a video with that song next summer.
Wow, so many! "When the Bullit Hits the Bone" by Golden Earring and "Roll Me Away" by Bib Seger "I could go east I could go west it was all up to me to decide." 8) 8)
Gimme Fuel Gimme Fire .... :burnout:
Foghat- Driving Wheel
Best of ZZ Top :banana:
Genre of cruise music depends on my mood...
Crazy Bitch by Buckcherry provides a little excitement
Green Onions by Booker T and the MG's is good for the mellow times
For cruising along a highway....
Driven by RUSH. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5jPondwDDOE
Awake and Alive by Skillet. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2aJUnltwsqs
Train kept a rollin by Aerosmith https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_EvGn22Mplg (Awesome)
Ms Hyde by Halestorm. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=j2OD-dV7j_I
Really a lot of songs are great as long as there is energy in the music! :bigthumb:
Without a doubt for me it's Rev on the Redline by Foreigner
Yes I'm an old street racer :cheers:

Two in a row, everybody knows
At the green light you rev it on the red line
Been waitin' all week to get my wheels on the street
Get my hands on the wheel, slide down in the seat
She's wearin' new colors and runnin' pretty good
I got four hundred horses tucked under the hood
But there's no need to panic, it's under control
We're aerodynamic and ready to roll
Rev on the red line
You're on your own
Rev on the red line
Just let it go
Runnin' all night on lake avenue
It's a piece of cake
If you know what to do
You've got to lose a few
'til the stakes get high
When the odds are right
You just blow by
And make no mistake, there's women who just wait
For the man and machine with the best time
Rev on the red line
You're on your own
Feels like a lifetime
But soon you'll know
Wasn't long ago I could've lost my wheels
Had to outrun the law, it was no big deal
I guess they had a grudge, they were hot on my tracks
I had to pay off the judge to get my license back
Now I need to pin those needles, got to feel that heat
Hear my motor screamin' while I'm tearin' up the street
Rev on the red line
You're on your own
Rev on the red line
Just let it go
Rev on, rev on
Rev on, rev on
Don't think I'll ever learn to slow down
Rev on, you'll still be here and I'll be gone
Rev on, rev on
Try driving slow listening to either Space Truckin' or Highway Star by Deep Purple
Those are all great cruising songs.
I don't know if I have a favorite.
I usually crank out
Zep
Pink Floyd
Black Sabbath
Aerosmith
Hendrix
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Jethro Tull
Allman Brothers
Deep Purple
And the list goes on.
This one, but it's something wrong with this picture... :D
Always loved the need for speed when the original Layla by Clapton was played on the 8-track!

Thunder struck AC/DC

Thunder struck AC/DC
:iagree:
Our '74 Challenger came with the factory stereo (not hooked up) installed. I told my wife that when I finally had a new stereo system installed, that Thunderstruck would be THE first song I played.
Sure enough, that's exactly the song I played. I purchased a very nice Kenwood stereo/receiver, wired it into the aftermarket Pioneer 6x9's that already came in the car, and then topped it off by installing a Kicker amp and subwoofer, and man is it LOUD and sounds great.
Any and all AC/DC songs, Shoot to Thrill would be second.
And then from there, as many '80's heavy metal/hair band songs as you can name, followed by the grunge rock of the early 90's....and yep, you can guess when I grew up. lol

Ya know, I am one that has been stuck in the past with classic rock! I love it! As a teenager in the Detroit area, in our spare time, we went to concerts! EVERY WEEKEND! Didn't matter really who was playing . . . we went! There is an out door venue called PINE KNOB and we spent so much time there . . it was like a second home! Back in the day, we were allowed to take kegs of beer into the venue and sit on the hill and drink and watch the show! AMAZING times . . . but that has passed.
So many times my wife would say . . . "How can you listen to those songs over and over again?? Me being a guitar player . . . I would breakdown the song and determine who played what part of the song and how it all came together. I would know every note!
I think I have moved on now . . . I really don't listen to the older classic rock anymore and although I would never tell her . . . but she was right. I was getting bored with the classis music as I had already deciphered the whole song many times . . . how many times can you listen to the same song over and over again. Me?? ALOT!
Classic rock is still AWESOME but I am now into a lot of the new rock music and that is what I listen to these days with all the stations that stream music . . Pandora is my new best friend when it comes to music! When we get together with friends, I let everyone pick a station on Pandora and then shuffle them . . . works great! Everyone will get to hear something that they like sooner or later!
Classic rock will always be a large part of my music heritage . . . but at some point, I needed to move on and expand my music library . . .
:bigthumb:
I agree completely , I love complicated music , but I have moved on & listen to a lot more of the newer hard rock , I still visit some of the classics but I don't live there :ohyeah:
One I like is Breaking the Law Judas Priest.
Especially when the sirens and roaring cars sound in the song.

When I was playing in a band back in my younger years, that was a song we would play . . . Have seen Judas Priest 6 or 7 times. Having 2 lead guitars can make it challenging!
Any of these cranked up to 10:
Thin Lizzy - Don't Believe A Word
Van Halen - Light Up the Sky
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Poison Whiskey
Slow Ride - Foghat
Stranglehold - Ted Nugent
I know Cuda Hunter likes this song a lot too.
Several of my favorites are Outta hell in my Dodge by Lynyrd Skynyrd, I'm in love with my car by Queen, and Heading out to the Highway by Judas Priest :burnout:
