Nomination no. 1 Tesla music

[meloccom]

For my "Golden Brown" Model S when it arrives in a month, I have selected for my first song:

Golden Brown by the Stranglers

 

[shrink]

Agreed. Modern Day Cowboy by Tesla

Yes! Highly underrated 80s hair band ... Five Man Acoustical Jam one of my favorite all time albums.

And ANYTHING by Queen ... Car related or not.

YES! We must be about the same age. I LOVED the band Tesla. In fact, their Great Radio Controversy album first taught me about Tesla vs. Marconi patent battle. Great "Signs"/Five Man Electrical Band reference. I had forgotten about that.

At the time, I thought the band Tesla might be the classic rock of the future. Unfortunately, I don't think their music has aged that well, but it's still quite solid and respectable. There was a lot of bad music during that time.

I also don't think the band Tesla makes great Tesla Motors music. From that era I think AC/DC fits a little better - "Thunderstruck" seems to fit well.

Something more modern and catchy, like the Kia Soul EV - Maroon 5 Animals commercial is memorable and fun. I have no other Tesla music nominees at the moment though, so keep the ideas coming. I think this is a fun discussion.

On 2nd thought, I nominate:

Linkin Park featuring Steve Aoki - "A Light that Never Comes" from the album, "Recharged"

Electric Feel by MGMT
My go-to song when cruising down a nice road in an overly-happy mood.

Your guys taste in music is as good as your taste in cars!! I'm loving the diversity and suggestions in this thread thus far. I'd like to add Rocketeer by Far East Movement.

Definitely Die Mensch-Maschine (The Man-Machine) by Kraftwerk
Great fit for the mood and the technology of the Model S...

 

[Xenoilphobe]

surprised that the last three songs are all on my favorite station list!

My vote goes to the 1987 Electric album, by The Cult

A great piece to listen to in the Model S is Keyboard Milk by Röyksopp--very cool...I actually learned about it from another thread on this very forum, as I'd never even heard about it previously.

My First MAJOR problem @ 10,000 km

"Battery"

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay

Smashing through the boundaries
Lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the Battery
Pounding out aggression
Turns into obsession
Cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me

Battery




-- Metallica

Am I the only fan of Supertroopers bold enough to suggest "Bidibodi Bidibu" from Bubbles?

The intro is the best part... if you can time it right, and do a launch right as the music kicks in... just warn your passengers first so you don't snap their necks if you do it in a P85D.

Enjoy the silence by depeche mode sounds good on the uhf sound system.

All I ever wanted, all I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Comfortably numb, Pink Floyd. That's how I feel in my Model S.
