I was thinking about this today on a drive down to Caffeine and The Machine (The Bowl) about the song I played when I picked up my Porsche. It was “Running to you” by Chike and Simi.

It is a banal point but I cannot be the only one who thinks about what song they want to play when they pick up their new car.

It was far too heavy for me to pick up. But when I collected it I didn't play any song because all the music I needed was coming out of the air intakes and exhaust.

When I collected mine, I was somewhat nervous and spent the 50 mile trip fighting the appalling (lack of) GEO and stupidly heavy wheels, and all I could hear was my heartbeat alternated with the voice in my head saying 'you idiot, this car is awful'.

Nowadays, I alternate between just two songs.

Where's your head at.

Where is my mind?

(one of the best songs ever, by the way. You kids don't know nuffink.)

I think it's a 993er thing.

Is levity only allowed if it meets your approval?

None, very poor sound system I thought. Years ago now. I think it was a 2008 or 10 Carrera S.

Yes. If that's a problem, you can always hit the report tab moan

But clearly the answer to your question is no, because we've all had to tolerate your own, unique brand of "levity" on here, for at least the last decade ... scratchchin

Unless it was yellow, then I'd play yellow submarine. I definitely wouldn't play that Coldplay tune, or the Donovan one.
