Do you have a song that helps you race, but you are embarrased to play it?

Heavy metal by Don Felder
Fantasy by Aldo Nova
Turn me Loose by Loverboy
Super black hole by Muse

Not too embarassing, but my menu BGM consists of the likes of Jon Legend, Enigma, Enya, and maybe some other relaxation music.

I have a decent variety of metal, alternative, and hard rock, a few songs I wouldn't walk around and brag about. Not like one can listen to Abba or Yanni whilst throttling down.
Anything nastalgic, distasteful, popular, or stupid that pumps blood to my foot is accepted.
 
Haddaway - What is love (doing the roxbury head bob while driving!)

Anything by AC/DC is great for road rage

+5 on Danger Zone
 
This song always make me want to drive fast, sweet video too
Pecussion gun - White rabbits

Not embarrassed to play any of my music, but the band that helps my racing the most is Disturbed. :D That and Soul on Display.
 
MCR - Planetary.

Don't laugh. It's actually a pretty cool song.
 
This one isn't that bad LOL:)





Anything hard rock works for me.

Embarrasing - anything dance related. I dont know why but the beat makes me drive faster

MCR's Planetary (GO!)

And Plastiscine's 'Pas Avec Toi' (which means "not with you", I'm learning French and am trying to interpret the lyrics. I think it's saying something about Dancing...)

This happens to me all the time online. My song is Paramore- Misery Buisness. Something about that song puts me in the zone, like the shaving seconds off my times and split second breakneck decisions zone:dunce:
When i play it everyones all like "WTFs someone playing?" and i quick it off.

Well, this isnt just GT5. It happens to me in Burnout too. This pic sums it up perfectly-

Does this happen to anyone else?

I have both Misery Business and That's What You Get in my race BGM. I really enjoy driving to them. I don't necessarily have music that I'm embarrassed that others know I like. However, I did have one partially embarrassing moment on GT5.

When I'm playing online I like to use the mic because I enjoy just talking about cars with other players online. I was in the race and I didn't realize how sensitive my blue-tooth really was. When I was racing I was singing this song under my breath:

I then heard someone say, "Ok, whoever is saying Taylor Swift can they please stop? It's a little distracting."

I was so surprised that everyone could hear me, I lost focus and drove my McLaren F1 right into the sand on Monza.

Honestly, I really enjoy Taylor Swift and I have as many of her songs in my race BGM as Nirvana.
 
Flash right back to GT2 and 'My Favorite Game'. If I'm in my real car and that song comes on, I'm automatically taking racing lines, apexes and the tickets account for the rest.
 
 
A few actually: The flaming lips - Race for the Prize and Fight Test
Man like Me - In the kitchen at Parties (Jonah Lewie)
Barrington Levy - Here I come (GTA SA)
Dunno why they just make me go like a rocket outta hell :dopey:
