Best Driving Song | Ping Island

The iPod has inspired yet another post with it's shuffle feature. Whilst driving, "Ping Island" by Mark Mothersbaugh came on. I used to have this song on a mix CD in my car and the memories came flooding back of how much I love driving to this song. It just pumps me up like no other and makes me want to speed and weave in and out of cars. But since I was driving downtown and hitting every red light, my urges were crushed. Some day I want to just really go out there are tear it up with this song on repeat.

A couple songs after "Ping Island," "My Favorite Game" by the Cardigans came on, which is another great driving song, thanks to Gran Turismo. It is more of a chill, highway driving song and doesn't quite match the energy of the Ping. Here is a cheesy YouTube video thingy were the song is played and just shows an image. I don't really know how to embed mp3s yet but I am working on it. In the meantime, play the song, close your eyes and imagine yourself in the drivers seat while this song guides you through traffic.

I put this song on whenever I'm weaving in and out of traffic in my MINI Cooper S. Glad to hear someone else out there knows the feeling!
