I don’t remember the first song I played, but I remember blasting Eminem’s “Without Me” at full volume with my new 12-inch subwoofer from Walmart. An officer pulled up next to me and my teenage self just about shit a brick. He just started nodding to the beat and drove off.
REM’s Drive, I know it’s trite but I actually liked Blossom.
I don’t have a driver’s license, forget a car.
Carmageddon soundtrack
What a game
Must have been Lee Scratch Perry. Not a song, a handful of tapes played over and over and.
I stuck Oracular Spectacular by MGMT into the CD player of my Miata (second car) when I bought it. I bought it in the winter when I couldn’t drive it so the album always brings me back to working on it.
Eve 6 - “Open Road Song”
Not yet there, but it will probably be something on the radio, as I don’t have any tapes (which is the only thing it supports). Could I still buy them anywhere?
No idea.
I see a lot of tapes at thrift stores or even antique stores. You could also get a Bluetooth or AUX tape adapter which are conceptually very cool
Wow, thanks. I’m kind off sceptical of the aliexpress adapters and I don’t even know if the tape player even works. I might test it with some kind of religious tape from my grandma.
Probably something by the RHCP, but I cannot remember properly

La bamba!
I have never been happy about driving. I probably to turned the radio on and listen to whatever was playing on the local station. Might have been Champaigne with Chris Rock.
It was probably something by The Used or MCR. What a time to be alive in 2008.
Back in the early 2000s I bought my first own car. It had a radio with cassatte. I had a mixtape that I carried around, with a walkman (albeit not the original one from Sony). When I drove the car home - stil with temporary number plates, because I needed to register the car to my name - the song Turn The Page played a few minutes into the drive. I will always associate this song with that particular event.
I haven’t yet gotten a car, nor do I plan to.
Why not?
Because if you can operate without one, life is so much better.
Cars ruin cities.
But if a city is already ruined or you live in a village without a bus station, it makes travel a lot easier.
Yep. Sounds like you can’t really operate without one. :(
That sucks. I’m sorry.
Well, I won’t enjoy loosing ~1060€ for the license, but I feel like I would at least enjoy driving a car.
