I Have spent many many MANY hours playing driver listening to music and i came to the conclusion that these are absolutely brilliant driving songs. I just seemed to drive better with this music on. i already know that Lseven7 doesn't agree with it all but what do other driver fans think.
It is still a work in progress however so i may add more to the list at a later time.

You got some good songs on the list but the lack of any Iron Maiden really hurts. Also, their should be more Deep Purple and less Bon Jovi and dare I say it...some rap for variety sakes.

No you may not say that! like i already said, this soundtrack is the result of maybe over a few hundred hours of reaserch into good music to drive to. just because the genre appears to be limited to what most will call Old School Rock, doesn't mean you should get pissy if there is no rap. you can't drive to rap music anyway. i tried, but then 50 cent started singing about blowjobs and i crashed. i respect your opinion but i render it redundant. and a note to all, the likelihood of a rap song entering this list is very very low.

Calm down man, I don't even like rap music.(hence the Maiden/Purple reference) I'm just saying that their should be some variety so that everyone can enjoy it. And if you drive better to Bon Jovi's "Living On A Prayer" then your "research" is flawed.

Like i have said. once again, this soundtrack is a work in Progress. maybe i will add saome iron maiden and more deep purple to the list. it all depends on the general consensus that i will get. and Living on a prayer is great to drive to. also there was more bon jovi on the list at one point but Lseven7 have managed to squeeze some songs off the list already. but overall i think good ol' bonnie pants is great to drive to. and why do you only complain about him. i have almost the same amount of Jimmy Barnes songs.

Fair enough, I only complain about Bon Jovi because lyrically his music is very boring. As for Jimmy Barnes, I've heard like 1 of his songs so I can't comment on him.

Another thing I noticed from your list, very few songs are agressive or fast.

That's because they are not meant to be that way. especially not the agressive part. they are up beat songs for the majority, other songs are in the list because in a game i'm designing to eventually send away, these songs lend hemselves to a certain in game movie.

If these songs lend themeselves to in game movies than that's fine, I'm saying that if your driving around/blowing stuff up your going to want to have exiting music not love songs.

Yeah But they up beat. and when i made the controls there is a next/previous song button. also if it comes out it would be realesed on PS3 therefore you would be able to put songs of the Harddrive in the game and these songs will only be a basic beggining platform, but the player can chose overall whether they want to listen to these songs or some kind of crap, nigger wanna pimp her music.

WTF! it's like 80 songs and you've only heard one. AMERICAN IDIOT isn't that bad but it was more a choice of it's a song that insults americans and considering with my game this will be pitched to an american company. i'd rather start one the right foot. but i agree, it is a good driving song

It's easy to frown on rap, the musical portion of it is very repetitive and the lyrics themselves I find are very uninspiring and boring. Everything thing is always about money, cars, pimps, drugs, and hoes. Granted, that is a stereotype and i know that some rap music is intelligent but the majority that I see on tv falls under the previously mentioned cliche.

Don't confuse new bands like Slipknot, System of a down, and Korn as metal. Screaming doesn't even happen that much in metal, for example: out of the 150 or so songs that Iron Maiden have recorded, around 5-10 have a scream and more thimes than not their appropriate because they evoke the emotion of the song. Another thing, you state that metal is dumb and pointless, that's not really fair to say because what defines dumb, is it lyrics about history, war, life/death, religion, and politics or is it lyrics about money, cars, pimps, drugs, and hoes.
ill make a poll right here:
RAP:2
ROCK:2
its a tie
DPLkicksASS, you should change that poll to:
RAP:2
ROCK:1
METAL:1


Now, i'm not saying that rap sucks or anything. I respect it and see it as a valid musical preference, I'm just saying that metal is also a respectable form of music and you shoudn't insult it by stating that mother's who listen to it are hoes. What does that then make of people who like country music?

hey DPL i jus remembered my mom listens to that music!!!!! :evil: Now one of my close friends likes metal and rock and made me listen to it and some of it wasnt bad, i dont remeber who it was or what it was but ill figure it out.

Moonchild, In ur poll, rap only has one, which it kneeds to be rap 2 because i voted for rap.

One tha screaming note, Screaming only really occurs in death/heavy metal. so really u shouldnt diss metal because it dont got dat much screaming.

You kneed 2 open yo eyes because all rap isnt about money, cars, pimps, drugs, and hos; u'd see if u listen to some of Talib Kweli, and some black Sheep, or some of lazie bones' music (no not crazie bone because he has rap about guns and hos and drugs) Or even Mobb Deep has some good muusic, so not all rap is bad and some of it even has a message, Not like NWA's message "F*** da Cops", but soem of it is good, especially old skool.

Every music is music, and even me has to say this,
If u cant respect classical music then u shouldnt listen to music at all because classical started it all, without calssical we wouldnt have Rock, Metal, Raggee, Rap, hip hop, rock, pop, dance, country and everything else. therefore everyone has their own taste in music and others shouldnt really say anything bad about music, But if u do ur just expressing an opinion and even then u shouldnt say that _____ music is bad.

Now in my personal opiniopn I HATE Country, i mean i jus cant stand it, but im not saying its bad, im jus sayin That I dont choose to listen to it, And if u like it and /or listen to i resect that because that is ur opinion on that type of music.

Well written Sedans, and your right that not all rap is about money, cars, pimps, drugs, and hos, I was just using that stereotype to combat the one about metal being only about screaming.

Oh, the poll thing was a typo that I missed but i have now fixed it.

As for country music, I hate it aswell.

Thank you, And like i said, every music is music, and I decided that i needed to make a post that actually made a point unlike mos of my posts, and i saw this as an oppertunntiy to Give a good point. It made me mad that DPL posted that (Tha whole "ur moms a ho if she likes rock or whatever") because i had forgtton that my mom is a fan of metal and all and to be honest I do like some of it.
I mean just yesterday i went to my friend andrews hous and he likes metal and he asked me to listen to a metal song he liked, i was reluctant at first, but surprisingly then, i asked him to play it again so i could recored tha song on my cell phone. hmm... mayb ill call him lata and ask him what tha song was and ill tell yall and mayb You will kno what tha song is.
Quite really I like a rock song by The Fray called "Over My Head (cablecar)". A lot of people dont realize that most genres of music have "sub genres" like for ...
Rap:
Old Skool
Gangta
Thug
Underground
Hip Hop
Hardcore

and ... (i pretty much consider rock and metal tha same but ill just compare here anyway)
Rock/ Metal
Soft Rock
Heavy Rock
Heavy Metal
Death Metal (Now this is tha stuff with tha screaming)

Now thats not all for them but just a few

I wish that people would open their eyes about rap, I have managed to convince a couple people o listen to it and they ended up pliking it but most people still hate it. heh, Tha same way my friend convinced me to listen to taht song. But like I said everyone has their own taste. I mean, i like Rap and all but I also like things like 80's songs. Like Cars and Kids in America lol
some rap is bad and i admit i listen to that to but i mean, Look at Eazy E [da guy in my avatar] he died awile back ago, How? Take a guess, But ill give you a hint: Its linked to one of those things u wrote in tha rap section combatting to dplkicksass. And he could still be alive today if he wasnt an idiot, All music has its' bad and it's good, ya kno?

I'm glad i have been the first to help sedans make a valid point for once in his life, and i respect the fact each and every person has their own tastes. therefore i would ask people to start submitting their own lists in this section. of however many songs (not that you like) but are good to drive to. and attribute them to a certain genre. and i will do my best to accomodate wishes when the final is sent to Ubisoft but no garuntees can be made. Postage to America is very expensive. and i will ask all who vote in my pole from this point forward not to vote on whether you like a song or not, but how well you drive when you listen to it. and if it doesn't work for you, then feel free to vote that its crap. and if you have never heard these songs please don't make a decision as to they all suck. the vast majority are very popular songs and i am surprised at those who have said they don't know any of them.

And a note to Sedans who i believe has voted for the majority sucks. you say you like 80's music and this is where the largest part of this playlist come from. good o'l eighties rock. And please don't insult everyone either cause my research will be useless if this page gets locked.

If you looked at my post correctly, tha 2 examples i listed for 80's music were pop.

And why do tou think im going to insult everyone?
