This is no attempt to rip off the previous "Great Plime" mix threads. I'm not looking for Karma, in fact, I request you do not upvote this thread. Instead go upvote the original post.

Anyway, I made this thread because today was an absolutely absolutely gorgeous day (in my area of New York, anyway). Well, I had to give my sister a ride into NYC, and as I drove I realized that the time has come to put together summer driving mixes.

So let's all do this together. What songs are guaranteed to put a smile on your face as you drive in the sun with the windows down; whether you're on your way to the beach, the park, the mall, the lake, or just driving for the hell of it? You know, those songs that just have that powerful type of energy that somehow takes the weight off of your back, and sometimes transfers it to the gas pedal?

One request - If you decide to post music videos, please also post the title and artist above the video - this way we can download them, even if we aren't familiar with the name of the song or artist.

Now I'll start:

Out on the road today I saw a deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said "don't look back, you can never look back"
Thought I knew what love was, what did I know?
Those days are gone forever, I should just let them go.
But I can still see you, your brown skin shining in the sun.
You've got the top pulled down and radio on...

In a place you only dream of
Where your soul is always free
Silver stages, golden curtains
Filled my head, plain as can be
As a rainbow grew round the sun
All the stars I've love who died
Came from somewhere beyond the scene you see
These lovely people played just for me
Now if I let you see this place
Where stories all ring true
Will you let me past your face
To see what's really you
It's not for me I ask these questions
As though I were a king
For you have to love, believe and feel
Before the burst of tamborines take you there

(chorus)
Green grass and high tides forever
Castles of stone souls and glory
Lost faces say we adore you
As kings and queens bow and play for you

Those who don't believe me
Find your souls and set them free
Those who do, believe and love
As time will be your key
Time and time again I've thanked them
For a piece of mind
They helped me find myself
Amongst the music and the rhyme
That enchants you there

Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen

<a href='http://www.plime.com/redir.p?http://youtube.com/watch?v=W6yCSxdH4Lw' class='plime' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'><b>flash video</b></a>



In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway american dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on highway 9,
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin out over the line
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
Its a death trap, its a suicide rap
We gotta get out while were young
`cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims
And strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
Well run till we drop, baby well never go back
Will you walk with me out on the wire
`cause baby Im just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta now how it feels
I want to know if love is wild Babe, I want to know if love is real

Beyond the palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
And the boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
I wanna die with you wendy on the streets tonight
In an everlasting kiss

The highways jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybodys out on the run tonight but theres no place left to hide
Together wendy we can live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl I dont know when were gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go and well walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us baby we were born to run

No, don't stop!

And Springsteen might be the the best summer music out there and especially the Born to Run album.
