Offspring - Bad Habit

 

i might be that day. just because i wear band tees, have tattoos and piercings, and listen to metal and hardcore doesn't mean i can't afford the car when it comes out. i happen to make very good money and my girlfriend makes well over $40k a year and has more ink then i do. comments like that just remind me how close minded some people can be.

 

Ummm, some of you guys really need to put down the crack pipe with the bad music you've come up with. Hiphop....NO, crazy head banging music...NO. Good ole Rock'n Roll....Yes.

Here is the introduction thats been going through my head......The room is dark, with just barely enough light, and silent. You can't see anything yet, but all of a sudden you hear a wicked V8 rumble. Then you hear the intro music to 2001 start.....As the 2001 theme music starts to build you see two HID headlight beams way back through a fog/smoke, they start to slowly move out toward center stage, with some wicked revs. Suddenly the 2001 theme hits its climax and strategicly placed strobing pyrotechnics go off with a loud bang, giving you the first look. The car rolls out to a slowly turning display, the 2001 music fades out, and a selected rock 'n roll song fades in(several have brought up Sweet Emotion). As the car gets to the turning display, spot lights from above quickly flash around the car. There are 2 passengers in the car the driver gets out and its Scott Settlemire and the passenger gets out and its Bob Lutz. Introducting the NEW CAMARO. The car stops turning and Scott steps up and breifly starts talking about the heritage of the Camaro, then Bob starts talking about the concept and what to expect in the near future. And finally invites everyone on stage for a closer look.

Man... I should be working for GM .

 

^^^that's a good one. would definetley make an impression.

know what i was thinking about before............remember the 4th gen commercial with the kids guessing what car it was by the sound. could they make a new version of that for the big screen before the car rolls out?

 

I hear ya, for what I'm imaging though it's just a a little bit too slow until Paige starts getting into it. But definitely one of the better ones for sure.

Also a good idea.

 

For Beatle fans:

1) Have a video of an illegal street race between the new Camaro and the Mustang. Of course, we know who wins the race and in the background, you hear, "Why don't We do it in the Road?" Nah.... wouldn't fly....

2) In a reference to the white album, when the car is unveiled, the only thing you hear is a voice saying, "Number Five. Number five. Number Five...." Nah... Wouldn't fly....

3) How about an instrumental version of the original "Revolution"? It's an American Revolution.

 

^^^

#2 might work, but it would get old pretty quick.

#3 is a good idea, but i think you would have to keep the lyrics or the song would lose something.

 

I absolutely hope you buy a new camaro, I fully intend to. However, you tend to not be the mainstream buyer for this car and as such, it wouldn't make much sense for GM to introduce the car by playing hardcore would it? You do want the car to sell right?

 

i never expected once to hear Hatebreed as the car rolls on stage. i know this is a corporate event that must appeal to everyone. and of course i want the car to sell, or else we won't have our 6th gen forum .

maybe i just read the comment the wrong way, but it did seem to be pointing to the fact that people like myself would not be able to afford the car. and i know people like me don't make up the "mainstream", but you'd be surprised how many gearheads there are that are into the metal/hardcore scene with money to burn. it's not like the old punk days of the late 70s anymore .

 

If it's going to be hip hop, you'd might as well go all out and pick Wu-Tang Clan's "Triumph". For bonus points, wait until after ODB's intro and then cut to instrumental. "YOU THOUGHT YALL WASN'T GON' SEE ME?! WU-TANG IS HERE FOREVER!"

Seriously though, "Are you gonna go my way" by Lenny Kravitz over racetrack/fender-cam footage.

 

I WILL BE HEARD:


now is the time for me to rise to my feet
wipe the spit from my face
wipe these tears from my eyes


now is the time for me to rise to my feet
wipe the spit from my face
wipe these tears from my eyes
i've got to take my life back
one chance to make it right
i've gotta have my voice be heard
and bring meaning to this life
cause i trusted for nothing


i've been led astray
i've been tried and tested
but i won't accept defeat
now i've done things i regret
and now it's time to reverse the rolls
i just want to make good on the promises i've made


i will be
i will be heard
i will be heard


now is the time for me to rise to my feet
wipe the spit from my face
wipe these tears from my eyes
i've got to take my life back
one chance to make it right
i've gotta have my voice be heard
and bring meaning to this life
cause i trusted for nothing
i've been led astray
i've been tried and tested
but i won't accept defeat
now i've done things i regret
and now it's time to reverse the rolls
i just want to make good on the promises i've made



i will be
i will be heard
i will be heard

 

I don't think anyone else has said this but how about Hendrix version of the star spangled banner. After all I thiknk it matches up with the American Revolution idea and you can't tell me the suits didn't used to rock out to some hendrix way back when. Hey it is our national anthem.

 

I think the 2005 Mustang used that version of the Star Spangled Banner.

 

you are my new favorite person i got to get on stage and sing that song with Jamey last January in NJ.
