Default Does your Beetle have a song?

Bluebonnet has a theme song. "Feelin' Groovy" by Simon and Garfunkle. The 59th St. Bridge Song. We love to hear it when it plays on the 60's station.

Lady's got a thing for Lady songs of course - her favorite is "Lady in Red" - but for actual driving she prefers "Bad Case of Loving You" by Robert Palmer.

I suspect so, but I'm not sure what it is. Very likely Mariachi music, perhaps "Camino a Guanajuato" (The Road to Guanajuato). If not that, perhaps something 'Cadien (Cajun).

When I went for the initial test drive in my '98, back in '98, I took the Heavy Metal movie sound track with me and played Heavy Metal (Takin' A Ride) to the surprise of the salesmen... was not his cup of tea.

it is Video killed the radio star by the Buggles it was playing on the radio when I brought her home That is also how she got her name, I said out loud what should I call you and that is when the song came on. For real hard core driving she likes Life is a highway or Running down a dream by Tom Petty

Titan's has 4 different songs! When he feels like going fast and making use of that turbo, he likes I've Got a Feeling by Black Eyed Peas

When he is driving lazily and being a boulevard cruiser, his song is New York by Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys

When its late at night, then he likes I Can't Stop Loving You by Kem.

Finally, when he is just doing stuff, his song is Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger by Daft Punk.

Oh, and the song we share is You and I by Anarbor!

New member here! *waves to all*

My car definitely has a song. It's funny, I just told someone it did today so when I saw this thread I had to register!

I just got my car Monday. It's not "new" as it's a 2001 but it's in great shape and I love it. I had a classic Beetle as a kid and almost 30 years later I now have another one!

The song is Brand New Day by Van Morrison. (it's linked in case you wnat to listen to it)

Quote:
When all the dark clouds roll away
And the sun begins to shine
I see my freedom from across the way
And it comes right in on time
Well it shines so bright and it gives so much light
And it comes from the sky above
Makes me feel so free makes me feel like me
And lights my life with love

[Chorus:]
And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day oh

I was lost and double crossed
With my hands behind my back
I was longtime hurt and thrown in the dirt
Shoved out on the railroad track
I've been used, abused and so confused
And I had nowhere to run
But I stood and looked
And my eyes got hooked
On that beautiful morning sun

[Chorus]

And the sun shines down all on the ground
Yeah and the grass is oh so green
And my heart is still and I've got the will
And I don't really feel so mean
Here it comes, here it comes
0 here it comes right now
And it comes right in on time
Well it eases me and it pleases me
And it satisfies my mind

[Chorus]
This song is exactly how I feel about my car.. "my eyes got hooked on that beautiful morning sun" - my bright yellow car lol

"makes me free and makes me feel like me"

"it eases me and it pleases me and it satisfies my mind"

I think the car's name is in here somewhere too. I just haven't figured it out yet
