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.

@ircon96 This has been stuck in my head since I saw it posted! I don’t mind though.
@Kyeh It does have staying power, that’s for sure!
@ircon96 I’ve been watching the Women’s College Gynastics final (great match, BTW) and 2 girls used “As It Was” so now that’s stuck in my head.
@Kyeh Those college kids are amazing these days, they really bring it! Good thing you’re so susceptible to earworms, that way they don’t last forever!
@ircon96 Some almost do …
Yes, those gymnasts are phenomenal!

Lady Gaga - Bloody Mary
So I guess I’ll link to both entries
@hap46st A classic bridge, well done!
@hap46st Better than your original anyway - a barely audible cough on the track isn’t much of link, IMO.
@hap46st @Kyeh How did i know you were gonna say that?
Lol
@hap46st @ircon96 Mebbe cuz you thought the same thing?
@hap46st @Kyeh
@hap46st @Kyeh Yeah, if you’re going for a cough Black Sabbath’s Sweet Leaf is pretty much the only choice.

@unksol Thanks for sniping with I song that I could still use my song for.
@yakkoTDI lol sorry. All I’ve got is word association. I can definitely not do the more clever rules. Or if the repeat rule goes beyond this thread
@yakkoTDI Ahem - @unksol, this one was a dupe, but obviously it worked out! The way to check is to search in the cheat sheet; if it’s a really well-known song chances are it’s been played before, but not always! And of course, it’s no big deal; the idea is just to not fill threads with repeats.
@Kyeh @yakkoTDI ah. I missed a step my bad. First time trying. Thanks I got it now
@unksol @yakkoTDI That’s cool - I think everyone’s done it, except maybe for yakko!

/youtube the way fastball
it’s been a bit since i’ve hung out here. i recall ‘participles’ are out of bounds? i plead my case that ‘the’ at the beginning of ‘THE’ flaming lips, and ‘THE’ way deserve some kind of exception to this rule.
so say we all!
fuck, fuck, fuck, and a fuckity fuck fuck
@Yoda_Daenerys “The” is a pretty weak link, IMO - but also this is a dupe from game 25!
@carl669 can i get a ‘hell yea’?
@Yoda_Daenerys fuck yeah you can get a hell yeah!
But if you insist…
/youtube The The - Violence of Truth
@Kyeh a friend had a band called “And and the Thes” I was tempted to post them but couldn’t find a song
@metaphore Dang - that would have been perfect!
/youtube mott the hoople - violence
@mossygreen another ‘the’ link, or some other connection?
@mossygreen @Yoda_Daenerys “violence” in both.
@ExtraMedium @Yoda_Daenerys I’d take the “the” in addition, why not?
Violent Femmes - Gone Daddy Gone
Cherry Poppin’ Daddies - Concrete Man Blues
/youtube t rex - lean woman blues
