Basic Rules
Connect a new song to the previously played song by name, musician, musical group, or concept. Try to use the format “Artist - Song Title” when possible. Avoid repeats, and do not make two plays back to back.
To avoid repeating past songs, it’s best to always do a quick search of the current thread as well as checking in the official Driving Game Cheat Sheet before making your play.

Rebecca Luker and George Dvorsky - No, No Nannette
/youtube Meghan Trainor - NO
Elvis Costello & the Attractions - No Action
The Who - Let’s See Action
The Action - Dustbin Full of Rubbish
@steeltoesenator Actually in my opinion the very short piano solo is the only thing this has going for it. The rest is just, well, rubbish.

@chienfou Oh, that sure brings back memories - my mother loved Shirley when she was a kid, so she got me all her records when I was a kid. I think I have all the songs memorized!

@chienfou @mossygreen Awww…
@chienfou @Kyeh Under the wire! Thanks!
@chienfou @mossygreen Yay!
/youtube stealers wheel - star
@mossygreen Funny, I was just looking at this quilt pattern, which I think is beautiful, and it also looks a bit like wheels and stars …
@Kyeh @mossygreen
Que Rod Steiger…
@chienfou @mossygreen
Do you mean Rod Serling?
Stuff like that happens to me all the time - just the tiniest little coincidences … looking at an unusual word just as someone on TV says it, etc.
@chienfou @Kyeh How could anyone mean anyone other than Rod Steiger, star of The Pawnbroker and In the Heat of the Night?
@mossygreen
/image facepalm
Grateful Dead - Dark Star
/youtube jerry paper - stargazers
Jerry Lee Lewis - Great Balls Of Fire
/youtube Jefferson Starship - Light the Sky on Fire (Star Wars Holiday Special)
A bridge!
Jefferson Airplane - Wooden Ships
Kind of picking the low hanging fruit, but I really like this song, and technically a different band with a similar name.
@chienfou A double!
Grateful Dead - Ship of Fools
Sting - The Last Ship
This entire album is excellent…
Electric Light Orchestra - Last Train to London
@ircon96
Dammit… I already played Locomotive Breath (Jethro Tull)… Back in Game 2 last MAY!!!
@chienfou @ircon96 Well, I’m GLAD because I don’t like Locomotive Breath anyway AND it compelled you to post that very cool piece below!
@ircon96 @Kyeh
back story to that piece is pretty cool.
LORD KITCHENER - London Is the Place for Me
Kris Kristofferson - Border Lord
Christopher Cross - Arthur’s Theme
/youtube Tatu - Have I crossed the line (All The Things She Said)
Tommy James and the Shondells - Draggin’ the Line
Johnny Cash - I Walk The Line
@chienfou DUPE (game 5)
@steeltoesenator
well crap. And I even checked it. (In fact it was still in the search box for my cheatsheet tab… ) not sure how that happened.
@steeltoesenator
Fixed it!
Tommy Smothers - Yo-Yo man
/youtube sandie shaw - puppet on a string
@mossygreen
Nice!
Amanda Shaw - Red Plastic Cup
man THAT was confusing… songs kept popping up and changing…
I’ve had the chance to see Amanda (and the Cute Guys) a couple of times at the Alex City Jazz fest and in Montgomery. She’s a great fiddle player.
@chienfou Yeah, I’m still confused! @ExtraMedium, things are loading pretty slowly - could we have a new thread, please?
@ExtraMedium @Kyeh
I think the BeachesBeaches poster redacted theirs rather than face the wrath of a sketchy link between Sandie and Beaches. I thought it was genius…
@chienfou @ExtraMedium Oh, okay. Especially since it gave you a chance to link your favorite Beach Boys song, huh?
@ExtraMedium @Kyeh
…which I searched for but missed finding, even though it HAD been played already…
@chienfou @ExtraMedium @Kyeh There are almost definitely songs missing from the cheat sheet. The only one I actually am aware of is Hello Mabel, which I noticed when I was checking which Bonzo Dog songs I’ve posted. That could be the only one, but it’s statistically unlikely. The only solution is a having a perfect photographic memory.
@ExtraMedium @Kyeh @mossygreen
my issue seems to be that sometimes even though I search and fail to get a hit on the terms, when I go back and try again (usually after getting called out) I find it easily !
@mossygreen
do you know which game that was in? I did find a few others that were messed up in the early going…
@chienfou Apparently it’s game 64, after The Fratellis - Mistress Mabel. The somewhat inferior live version from Do Not Adjust Your Set with Neil Innes vocal. This last part is only important to me.
@chienfou @ExtraMedium @mossygreen
I’ve missed some by simply forgetting to expand the comments in search. But I’ve also seen search skip right over words that I’m looking for - hitting one but then missing one right below it. Sometimes it’s just screwy.
@mossygreen
Pretty weird. I distinctly remember seeing that song when I created the list… must have edited it out by accident when I formatted it. I put an addendum up at the end of the list for game 64. Let me know if you find any more…
@chienfou IT’S HAUNTED.
