Thanks for downloading this unofficial soundtrack for the television show, Top Gear, airing on the BBC. Also known as the greatest motoring program for all time.

I have created what is probably the greatest mix CD of all time. Ever. Well, if you're me, that is. Anyways... I was up late watching some more Top Gear episodes I obtained (another 11 to be precise, bringing my total up to 34)... and I kept hearing more and more awesome music. Music I know I have on my iPod.

So I decided... in all my awesome glory... to create a mix of this music. Difficulty? Well, it has to be a song that's been played during the series. And it has to be a song I have on my iPod. Because despite the fact that I have just under 7000 songs... I don't have every bloody song in the world.

So I set out to work, scouring over my video tapes and reading over forum posts to get a good list of 20 songs to put on a mix CD. Turns out... they're almost all some of my favorite songs of all time.

Many thanks to the Final Gear forums for their dedicated topics on songs from certain episdoes, and of course, to VUK, for creating awesome high-quality rips.

And to Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May... for kicking arse.

Right.

I was going to originally do write-ups of each song (why it was chosen and blah blah blah), but decided to let the songs speak for themselves.

Although I will have to say the last two are INSANELY awesome pieces of music. They're part of the same composition (split into two songs), so make sure to listen to each one. You've probably heard them in movie trailers, but when you listen to the whole song... it creates an orgasm for your ears.

Much like the first song, which is a song so devilishly cool, that Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard should be arrest for it. And what better driving song could there be than a song composed for a Batmobile chase? None, that's what.

Yes, that is music from 24 on there too. I have the most insane taste in music.

And on that bombshell...

Remember to drive safely and courteously and always wear your seat belt and obey all posted signs.
