Driving Music

What music do you X6 drivers listen to, if any, while driving?

For me:
1.) Wu-Tang Clan
2.) Kraftwerk. Mostly the Tour de France Soundtracks. It's a great album while driving 20+ min distances.
3.) Soundtracks: The Fountain, Broken Flowers, Kill Bill, Stranger Than Fiction, Final Fantasy VII, Jackie Brown, anything by Ennio Morricone, Lost In Translation.
4.) Bands: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Air, Days of the New, MJ, Pink Floyd, Neil Young, Moby, NIN, Metallica, Queen, Pearl Jam.

What about you?

You know it. I have ran out of post ideas while waiting to order my 2011. So this will have to tie me over. Plus it will be cool to see what people listen to while driving. I am going to iTunes some of these bands people have said. I love some good driving music. Also you might as well just wait for the 2011. You are gonna custom order right? May as well get what you want. Unless that 2010 50i black is fully loaded then I would prolly jump the gun too. May/June is soooooo faaarrr away......

@keanu1
That sounds like some pretty hardcore driving music. Do you ever find that if you play the likes of Metallica or NIN that you drive faster and sometimes even more angrier? If you have a bad day at work mixed with some high powered music it always = speeding ticket for me.
