My 75mph Playlist

Hey there! I haven't really blogged in a while. Partly because of work and writer's block. I was thinking about making a movie review but I needed some more time before I put in on paper. And lately, all I could manage to squeeze in while working would be listening to music. It was then that I realized that it's been a while since I shared a playlist. Inspired by my recent dream where I was driving a bright yellow Porsche turbo in France's beautiful countryside, I now present to you...

My 75mph Playlist

A quick confession though before I continue: I don't drive. I haven't touched a stick shift and closest experience I'd have to driving would be in a bumper car (which I'm actually good at, both offensive and defensive). But I frequently find myself being the designated navigator during road trips with friends, with an added responsibility of picking out the music to keep the driver awake. Every single time we hit the expressways, I find myself playing certain songs and start to wonder what it feels like behind the wheel. And these songs... well... some of them are not exactly for the faint of heart...

  1. Song 2 by Blur
  2. Nice To Know You by Incubus
  3. Low Rider by War
  4. Tick, Tick, Boom by The Hives
  5. Midnight Show by The Killers
  6. Twenty-Twenty Surgery by Taking Back Sunday
  7. Typical by MuteMath
  8. Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is by Jet
  9. Push It by Garbage
  10. The Shock of the Lightning by Oasis
  11. Massive Crush by The Barbs
  12. Dropped by Phantom Planet
  13. Great DJ by The Ting Tings
  14. Is It Any Wonder by Keane
  15. One Week of Danger by The Virgins
  16. Sugar, We're Going Down by Fall Out Boy
  17. Last Day of Magic by The Kills
  18. New Again by Taking Back Sunday

Whew! I could add a few more songs but if the car only had audio disc player, I think 18 tracks will cut it. LOL. Hmm... What if I had a car and knew how to drive? That list would probably be longer than EDSA. By a mile. Hehe.

    Ooooh I have a playlist like this too! I used to play it a lot when I got my first car, but then I... grew up? Now I don't play it too much for fear of vehicular accidents, unless I'm really really hyped up, really really pissed off, or both. Haha!

    Agree on "Song 2" by Blur! That one also reminds me of my teen angst. Hahaha. Here are some of my faves:

    1. "Born Too Slow" - The Crystal Method (this was from the game Need For Speed Underground so it's just MEANT to be on a list like this haha)
    2. "Get Free" - The Vines
    3. "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" - Jet
    4. "Sabotage" - Beastie Boys (thanks to Star Trek, haha)

    I love this post! I love posts about playlists. Hahaha.
