What tunes are on your playlist?

[DR Buck]

While reading responses in another post I got to thinking about music while riding on the Spyder. I got a new (my 1st) Ipod for Christmas. Not my first music player, but my first Ipod. I asked for it because I could control the music selections from the Spyder's control pod and my other players only give me control of volume.

Anyway I started sorting through my 3000+ mp3 files and organizing a few play lists for the Ipod. I currently have 3 different playlists and about 1200 tunes on the Ipod. I created one I called "Bike Music". So far I have 208 files on that list. It includes lots of upbeat 60s & 70s Rock & Country.

What I am wondering is what tunes everyone else enjoys while riding. I'm sure the generation you grew up in has some bearing on your choices. ( I am also aware some of us haven't grown up yet, and some never will :roflblack:).

So the big question is what are your top 5 or 10 favorite tunes you blast while riding ? I'll start. Here are my top 10 from my current "Bike Music" playlist:

1. Magic Carpet Ride - Steppinwolf :yes:
2. Roll On Down the Highway - BTO
3. One Toke Over the Line - Brewer & Shipley
4. Goin Up Country - Canned Heat Tied with On the Road Again - Willie Nelson
5. American Pie - Don McLean :2thumbs:
6. Born To Be Wild - Steppinwolf
7. This Magic Moment - Jay and the Americans
8. Tell Her No - Zombies
9. Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox - Joe Diffie
10. Viva Las Vegas - Elvis Presley

Can my top 10 have 25 or 30 tunes? I sure could add more of my favorites. hyea:

I have about 100 playlists on my ipod. Some have 20 songs some have 300. I have playlists titled: country, classic rock, pop, classical violin, motorcycle music ( this one has classic road songs and music from Sons of Anarchy), etc... I love that I can change playlists with the RT controls. Music and motorcycles go together. My top ten change every ride!

I'm seeing a lot of my standards on here. I always end up singing "Born to be Wild" at some point. I have been known to ride through the desert blasting "blaze of glory". And The Drive By Truckers and "Carl Perkins Cadillac" are on every playlist I have. In fact, I was listening to that song this morning. Great stuff!

HANK III. Nuff said.

I seldom listen to a playlist...I just let the iPod shuffle everything that is on it. Old folk and folk-rock, 50s & 60s oldies (especially hotrod and surf music), some jazz, some patriotic songs, some bluegrass, and plenty of R&B. I couldn't pick 10 favorites (or 25 or 30) if I tried. Nancy likes the girl groups from the 60s.

Oh my!!! :shocked: You've pretty much just listed my hubby's favorite playlist. I bet you two could exchange ipods and never know the difference.

...And my Missus digs Country music... :gaah: :roflblack:

 

[bcoulter19]

I don't have a playlist on my phone but I have everything from Avril Lavigne to George thourgood and Zac Brown to Lynard Skynard. It just depends on what mood i'm in. I can also just listen to the radio on my scala rider if I don't want any of that so I'm always good.

 

[Bob Denman]

Lynryd Skynyrd... If they hadn't made that one-point landing in the swamp; I might have liked Country-Rock more... We had tickets to see them at the Spectrum in Philly when the news hit...
All of us thought about the same thing when they reported 3 fatalities; "I hope it's just the Lynettes...:shocked:"

 

[Cruzr Joe]

YEP, thats the one

 

[Bob Denman]

Hopefully she fires it up and gets to dance around a bit today... :thumbup:
