There was a time when songs about cars were nearly as prevalent as the cars themselves. The Beach Boys sang about their “409”, there was the “Little Old Lady From Pasadena”, and of course “Hot Rod Lincoln” by Charlie Ryan. These days we don’t get so many songs about cars. Vehicles just don’t inspire illuminated vocals anymore it seems. But if you’re a Mustang fan, have hope!
This YouTube video features Mustang fans’ two favorite things; Mustangs, and girls. Plus, it has a catchy tune that you may not like at first, but it grows on you.
Now this is hardly the most inspired song ever, and we doubt it will be eligible for a Grammy anytime soon. But it does have some rather catchy lyrics, like “The V8 growl, such a wicked sound/True competition ain’t never been found.” The singer then proceeds to warble that “The Ford Mustang makes me feel so alive/Feels like time now that I am passing you by/You want to get in and come along for the ride/You better hold tight because I’m in overdrive.”
You get the gist. Really, the video is more about the pictures and the girls than the song, though we have to admit the singer/songwriter at least sounds like he knows what he is talking about, mentioning makes like Shelby and Saleen in his lyrics. Besides, it is a song about a Mustang! It has been like, 40 years since anybody made a good car song. So we will take what we can get.
