Title: GNR no 2 driving song Post by: anythinggoes on March 23, 2005, 11:43:49 AM EveningTimes.co.uk is reporting that QUEEN's "Bohemian Rhapsody" has been named the all-time best song to drive to.
A radio station poll asked voters to choose the top tune to have on the car stereo from a list of suggestions by listeners. The QUEEN track took the top spot with 16% of votes, ahead of "Sweet Child O' Mine" by GUNS N' ROSES (15%) and NIRVANA's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (11%). "Bohemian Rhapsody" was featured in a memorable driving scene in the 1990s film "Wayne's World", in which Wayne, Garth and pals were seen cruising the streets in a car headbanging to the track. When it comes to driving songs it seems fans go for the old classics ? with six of the top 10 more than 10 years old. Top 10 driving songs: 01. QUEEN ? "Bohemian Rhapsody" 02. GUNS N' ROSES ?
