Motorcycle songs???
 

Hi, i want to collect al the motorcycle songs that i can get
2 is Motorbiking from billy idol
1 is motorcycle song billy joel

I need all the recomendations for my playlist ( i just found this 2 )
from any group or decade, i remenber 1 about a honda from the 60 s
and other from the pixis i think we can made a good colection, not the song from the song search on the google or yahoo music search
songs that we remember from something:ear thanks

I like Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi....

Honda Honda by Beach Boys (or is it Little Honda?) I forget the title...

I think a few Prince songs mention his motorcycle, but its not the theme of the song... (maybe he did one?) it was a purple motorcycle to be more specific :deal

Please clarify your request.

Are you talking about any song that has something to do with motorcycles? Or a song that has the specific word motorcycle / bike in it -- or about a specific brand or type of motorcycle.

e.g. Born to Be Wild by Stepenwolf or Born to Run by The Boss are general motorcycle theme songs. A Crazy Little Called Love referes to taking a long ride on a motorbike.

here's a couple good but obscure ones:

Motorcycle by Love and Rockets
Just for Kicks by Mike Sarne

Arlo Guthrie - The Motorcycle Song
Joe Satriani - Ride
Del McCoury - 1952 Vincent Black Lightning

KICK STARTING MY HEART...motley crue!!

Crazy motorcycle- Genocide Super Stars

Niel Young- Unknown Legend
Bob Seger - Roll me Away

I know it's been said, but 1952 Vincent Black Lightning. Of course I thought that was by Richard Thompson (at least the version I have says it is...)

There's also a group called Motorcycle that's done a song called "As the Rush Comes," although I think it's more about drug use. Good, mellow tune, but it's definately more techno. Most of the songs already suggested in this topic are classic rock.

Another suggestion, not about motorcycles, but if you've seen the movie "Faster," is the song "Whatever Happened to my Rock and Roll." Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. I think you want the "punk version/pung song". After watching Faster, I think I'll always associate that song with bikes.

Then there's Tom Cochrane- Life is a Highway

+1 on Steppenwolf "Born to be Wild"

Here's a couple more:

"Bad Motor Scooter" by Montrose
"Headin' out to the Highway" by Judas Preist

Would Ballad of Easy Rider by the Byrds qualify?

What about Michael Parks - Long Lonesome Highway?

Well, there's always "Leader of the Pack" by the Shangri-Las (1964).

Looks like the Del McCoury Band cover it though.....

Yeah, it was originally composed by Richard Thompson and featured on his excellent album "Rumour and Sigh" (also containing the magnificent "God Loves a Drunk"). Del McCoury released a popular cover a few years ago. A few other folks have covered this one (check your favorite P2P net) but the Thompson version remains my personal favorite.

Other good motorcycle/highway/travel/driving tracks?

Long Lonesome Highway by Dick Curless (the theme from "Then Came Bronson")
Highway Star by Deep Purple
Motorcycle Emptiness by the Manic Street Preachers
Motorbike by Sheep on Drugs
Travelling Again by Dar Williams

will post more as I think of them...
