Driving Game (Part 16)
2Original Explanation:
Basic Rules: Follow the posted music video with a different song, band, or musician tied directly to the previous post.
Example: I post Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal.
You could then post Michael Bolton, Jackson Browne, Outcast - Ms. Jackson, Alien Ant Farm - Smooth Criminal, Fun Lovin Criminals…
Create a new comment for your submission and leave replies just to talk about the comment’s connection or validity.
You can veto if you don’t agree that there’s a connection. In that case, you can post your own connection to the previous song or @ the person you’re vetoing and tell them they need to make the connection clear or replace it. No hard feelings, either way, we’re just having fun sharing music. Note: If someone has already made a new connection to the song you want to veto, you missed your chance and the song stands. You can still let the person know where you found the problem and maybe they can clear things up.
For those interested, here’s the history:
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7, Part 8, Part 9, Part 10, Part 11, Part 12, Part 13, Part 14, Part 15
Also, if you would like to just take a look at just the text version of previous submissions and connections you can see them in this thread.

Picking up where the last one left off…
M.A.R.R.S. - Pump Up the Volume
crap…none of my links work…can somebody fix it?
@januarymick On it. Thanks for jumping on the new post though.
@januarymick Someone should go through those and create an index topic to easily search for duplicates and to make seeing where this little road trip has taken us a bit easier. Bonus points for posting a Youtube tracklist (or Spotify or another tracklisting service).
@ExtraMedium appreciate the clean up!
@januarymick @mike808 Maybe a new thread called “Driving Game Cheat Sheet” that has no youtube links but a running list of what was added and in order.
@ExtraMedium @januarymick Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. I’ll see if I can start one from the desktop when I get back there.
@ExtraMedium @januarymick @mike808 I started a google spreadsheet to use as cheat sheet, leaving it open for everyone to edit.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qflzNWhLPh2LcNBlnxeYVhrWKCuVGzw8W5Ix61a1OpM/edit?usp=sharing
Anyone concerned about your email address or Google account being revealed while (or by) editing the doc can just right-click and open in an incognito tab and you can edit the spreadsheet anonymously.
@ExtraMedium @januarymick @mike808 I opted for 1 ridiculously long list instead of pages for each part, for ease of searching. If anyone would rather it be broken into parts that can happen.
@metaphore Looks good. I cleaned up the back and forth here and I’m adding your link to the main post.
@ExtraMedium @metaphore I’ll pull titles from a desktop browser, drop into a table, extract to notepad/text and mark it up with mehdown and paste into a new topic.

Spanish Love Songs - Stranger
@metaphore Eurythmics - “Love is a stranger” would have been a perfect double, but it’s a repeat.
Pearl Jam - Love, Reign O’er Me (cover of The Who)
Vedder turns his pipes up to eleven on this track.
@mike808 wow! I had not heard this, pretty bold move to cover this one but he did it well.
The Jam - Down in the Tube Station at Midnight
MC5 - Kick out the Jams
P.S. NFSW - language. Loud and proud MF at the top.
A seminal punk band before it was a genre, and this is the source of this legendary intro phrase that has been sampled by countless others.

Unless I can get 1 or 2 specific songs to fit, I might chill on more SLS

That would be great.
I’m pretty tapped out on SLS and T-rex. Maybe tell us about some other bands or grenres you like?
@metaphore @mike808 Coven is still cool, though, right?
