Kerrang! looks for the best driving song

Kerrang! Radio has teamed up with fellow Bauer brand CAR to find the ultimate driving song.

To celebrate CAR Magazine’s 50th birthday, the Birmingham-based station aims to find the top fifty best road trip songs of the past fifty years.

Supported online by CAR, Kerrang! presenters are showcasing suggestions each day, with the top fifty featuring in a special programme next month.

Meanwhile CAR Magazine will print the final list in its 50th anniversary issue later this year.

“With us being part of the same family in Bauer, it’s great to be able to support a legendary motoring publication like CAR” said Programme Director James Walshe. “It makes sense for us all to support each other – driving sales at the newsagents whilst generating new listening – particularly in a landmark year for the best car magazine in the world.”

He added: “Suggestions so far include classics from AC/DC and The Who, to the likes of Muse, Biffy Clyro and Arctic Monkeys. Seems rock is still very much alive in the driving seats of Britain!”

    Guns’n roses, you could be mine. Quality track but for some reason makes my right foot feel heavy when driving!
