I have an unsettling fondness for car crash songs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_car_crash_songs << There's a Wiki for everything, it seems.

And another one that always sticks in my head - slightly off-subject but there is a link of sorts - 'Drive' by The Cars.

Which in turn leads me to 'Drive' by REM - great track.

Paul and Linda's "backseat of my car"....
this was released as a single in the UK off "ram", but "uncle albert/admiral halsey" wasn't!

and then we also have Wings' "Helen wheels"

Chris Rea's "Daytona" - and it's not about the beach - it's about the Ferrari! Lol!
The clip is cool tho'. (Umm – I retract this statement! Only listened to, as opposed to watching the entire clip before posting! That’ll teach me. Geez! Not cool. I'm not fond of footage of any crashes at all!! :redfaceSmile

Metaphor you say??
Hmmm ... I think not.
Just listen to the love! Confusedmile:

"Diamond dream when the sun don't shine
I close my eyes to see
Twelve wild horses in silver chains
Calling out to me"

Bowie (RIP), this is a solid track off of one of his best albums!
