or Fule would be a KICK *** song...have you seen the video to that...its all about racing...

 

I agree about AC/DC Back in Black but I just have to go with Deep Purple - Highway Star

Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power, big fat tires
and everything

I love it and I need it
I bleed it yeah it's a wild hurricane
Alright hold tight
I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my girl
I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl
She stays close on every bend
Oooh she's a killing machine
She's got everything
Like a moving mouth body control
and everything

I love her I need her
I seed her
Yeah She turns me on
Alright hold on tight
I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my head
I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head
Now that I'm on the road again
Oooh I'm in heaven again I've got everything
Like a moving ground an open road
and everything

I love it and I need it
I seed it
Eight cylinders all mine
Alright hold on tight
I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power big
fat tyres and everything

I love it and I need it
I bleed it
Yeah it's a wild hurricane
Alright hold on tight
I'm a highway star
I'm a highway star
I'm a highway star


This just screams cool! and it lends itself well to the older generation, the gen Xers and the newest generation's... Plus I can just see the cool commercials they could do with that song...

 

I dunno, some really good ideas here, but if I had my choice and I don't know if it came up or not, but...... Seek and Destroy by Metallica.....

alright....
scanning the scene in the city tonight
We are looking for you to start up a fight
There is an evil feeling in our brains
But it is nothing new you know it drives us insane

Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy

.... y'all get the idea. The perfect predatory song for the perfect street predator... Camaro.

 

^ ^ ^ I just don't see how that would appeal to a "broad" audience? It still screams "I love long hair and tatoos, and where's a good place to stash a 6-pack in the car where I can reach it?"

 

Bob Segur - Old Kind of Rock and Roll

Since it's retro, and since people already associate Bob with Chevy (from the truck commercials).

 

everybody loves metallica.

 

Dunno if anyone said this one, but
Lynard Skynard- Black Betty.
Thought about it after hearing the Dukes of Hazard movie use it. I figured it would go great with a fast action commercial as the car slides around the track.
I also like the one Spiderbait did which is a bit more modern.

and haha...it would be sweet. Duel of the Fates to play. Would make for a good song for Top Gear to play if they do a review of teh Mustang GT, Camaro SS and Challenger RT.

 

First of all, it's Lynyrd Skynyrd (replace ALL vowels with Y and you're good), and second of all, they didn't do Black Betty. The original is by Ram Jam, and I like the Spiderbait remake too.

 

Well now that the Camaro Concept was intro'd.. how did you guys like the music?

Honestly, I was too busy paying attention to the car..

but I do remember it being some really wierd sounding almost "future-scaryvibe" electronic (not exactly genre of "techno") music...

It kinda fit though!

 

Trance/Techno is the sound of the future. Back in Black is for honky tonk bars.

 

I want to know the name of the song playing when Bob is driving it out and around.

 

ever seen the mustang commercial where they used the engine to play the national anthem? too bad ford thought it up first. that would've been badass. i had the same idea when i heard a formula 1 car play 'when the saints come marching in' several years ago...

 

Actually it's 1, 2, 3, 12. Doce is twelve. Living in California where English is a second language you pick on these things.

 

Actually U2 sucks and that's the last band I want associated with my new car...I hate that vertigo song...and the biggest problem with using music to advertise cars is that the commercials get played so often and for so long that I end up hating the song they use to death. I swear, after all the Led Zeppelin they played in the recent Cadillac commercials, I can no longer stand Led Zeppelin...and I used to love 'em. Man advertising ruins a lot of good music.

Somebody here has to agree with that.

 

If you had really picked up on Spanish over there, you wouldn't need some nerd from Michigan to tell you that he's saying "catorce", not "doce", and that it is indeed 14.
