Grab It! - L'Trimm My parents bought me an external Firewire CD burner for a birthday present (back in June) but the thing didn't work. When I met them for dinner last night, they gave me a new one which although is a wimpy USB 1.1 model, at least it's a name brand (Iomega Zip CD650). Turns out that it actually works. I guess there's something to be said for buying name brands.

So this morning I finally made the "Car Songs" CD that I've been thinking about since this summer! Here's what's on the CD:

  • Barenaked Ladies - In the Car

  • Beach Boys - Fun, Fun, Fun

  • Beatles - Drive My Car

  • Billy Ocean - Get Out of My Dreams Get into My Car

  • Don McLean - American Pie

  • Geggy Tah - Whoever You Are

  • L'Trimm - Cars that go boom

  • Prince - Little Red Corvette

  • Roger Miller - King of the Road

  • Rose Royce - Car Wash

  • Sammy Hagar - I Can't Drive 55

  • Tracy Chapman - Fast Car

  • Trio - Da Da Da

  • Willie Nelson - On The Road Again

Yes, I know that "Da Da Da" isn't actually a song about cars or driving, but those Volkswagen commercials have infused the song with a whole new set of car imagery. Kinda like I always think of United Airlines when I hear Rhapsody in Blue.

Sounds like a good list. I'll make one of those up soon. This is a good idea, though. I think I'll post my mix lists whenever I make them.

I ask myself this constantly on a regular basis: What ever happened to Lou Bega?
