Sunshine Highway - The Dropkick Murphys

Ultimate roadtrip song, so might be of some use to you.

I love the smell of September in the morning. Once we got off at Richmond, walked up to the 'G, and there was no game on. Not one footballer in sight. But that cut grass smell, spring rain...it smelt like victory.

Dynamic. When [Kuznetsov] decided he was going to make a difference, he did it...Like Ovechkin...then you find out - he's with Washington too? You're kidding.

Thank you to everyone. I'll be working my way through the lists, but I might not mention what I thought of every single song (I have work I need to be doing :P ).

One song I've found to be totally awesome for cruising is a rap song I found somewhere: Me and Jesus the Pimp in a '79 Granada Last Night by The Coup is a wicked song. I'm going to make the intro into my ringtone, even. Real good beat to that one, but it's close to 8 minutes long. Which can be more good than bad.

Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Two words, Top Gun. :P
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."
