Vette songs
Since I finalized my build with MacMulkin today, AND assuming that they get at least 70 allocations for next month, I'm hoping for my car to be delivered in September. So I was thinking of the songs I will play on my 1 hour rider home from MacMulkin. First one is Prince's Red Corvette (cause that's the only Corvette song I know and I'm getting a Red Mist).
Anyone else have any suggestions for songs with Corvette in them? Don;t care of the genre. Might even put a Spotify play list together

If you are under 50 years old this is the song for you.... If you are over 60, and want to roll the dice, take your geritol and blood pressure medicine if you are going to listen to this 
.
This is the first song I am playing.

Ok, the playlist is up on Spotify. Search for Corvette Driving Music. I tried to keep it to songs about or with Corvette in them but added some other stuff as posted above. Keep sending suggestions.
There is another Corvette playlist on Spotify that I may "borrow" some songs from.

Corvette song
The infamous "Little Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic Corvette". I think it was the original title but Prince was forced to change it by the Record Execs and this led to his parting with the record company!!!

Tach it up, tach it up
Buddy gonna shut you down
It happened on the strip where the road is wide
(Ooh, rev it up now)
Two cool shorts standin' side by side
(Ooh, rev it up now)
Yeah, my fuel injected Stingray and a four-thirteen
(Ooh, rev it up now)
Revvin' up our engines and it sounds real mean
(Ooh, rev it up now)
Tach it up, tach it up, tach it up
Buddy gonna shut you down
Declinin' numbers at an even rate
(Ooh, rev it up now)
At the count of one we both accelerate
(Ooh, rev it up now)
My Stingray is light the slicks are startin' to spin
(Ooh, rev it up now)
But the four-thirteen's really diggin' in
(Ooh, rev it up now)
Gotta be cool now power shift here we go
Superstock Dodge is windin' out and low
But my fuel injected Stingray's really startin' to go
To get the traction I'm ridin' the clutch
My pressure plate's burnin' that machine's too much

Not a Corvette Song but one that makes you think about how a Corvette feels:
Steppenwolf Magic Carpet Ride.
Dead Man's Curve by Jan and Dean was a predictor of a sad event for Jan, he totaled his 67 Vette in a horrendous crash. On April 12, 1966, Berry received severe head injuries in an automobile accident on Whittier Drive, just a short distance from Dead Man's Curve in Beverly Hills, California, two years after the song had become a hit. He was on his way to a business meeting when he crashed his Corvette into a parked truck on Whittier Drive, near the intersection of Sunset Boulevard, in Beverly Hills. Berry was in a coma for more than two months; he awoke on the morning of June 16, 1966.
Berry recovered from brain damage and partial paralysis. He had limited use of his right arm, and had to learn to write with his left hand and had to learn to walk again.
There are several versions of Dead Man's Curve that vary around how many taillights the Corvette had. One version, the one I first heard back then they sang Six Taillights. Everybody knows C2s only had four taillights but not everybody knows that a very popular customization for those cars was to add two more taillights so there were three on each side. It wasn't hard to do and made the cars look much better.

Beach Boys "Shut Down" references a Stingray. See below:
