Yeah...I thought JJJ has been hijacked by some 40 year latinos when I first heard it because it was all that salsa rhytham and trumpets....

But the rock, salsa, hip hop mixings I think actually work well

Wagner 'dangerous to drivers'

From correspondents in London

April 15, 2004

WHEN Richard Wagner composed his powerful Ride of the Valkyries in the 1850s, he surely wasn't thinking of any danger he was posing to 21st century motorists.

Britain's RAC Foundation for Motoring today named the strident classical piece as the No 1 tune not to play while driving, based on research which the foundation says shows that loud music can cause accidents. The Dies Irae from Giuseppe Verdi's Requiem was also considered a no-no. The top five list of tunes to avoid while behind the wheel was rounded out by three modern songs - Firestarter by the Prodigy, Red Alert by Basement Jaxx and Insomnia by Faithless.

To help music-loving motorists, the foundation also provided a top five list of songs that may safely be played while driving, "albeit quietly".

Norah Jones's smash hit Come Away with Me was deemed calm enough, as was Mad World by Gary Jules. Other songs on the safe list were Another Day by R&B singer Lemar, Too Lost in You by girl group The Sugababes and Breathe Easy by boy band Blue.

It's not the first time the RAC Foundation has warned of the dangers of riding with Wagner.

Ride of the Valkyries topped the RAC Foundation list of dangerous songs two years ago, when the issue was the peril of fast tempos. Verdi's Dies Irae was No 3 on that list.

I can't think of why Ride of the Valkyries is dangerous

Why, last time I played it, my helicopter was joined by about 6 others and we flew over a beachside village. The strangest thing then happened, the villagers started shooting at us............

Maybe they didn't appreciate Wagner.

As far as music to be played in the car, there is only one band to listen to........

The hottest band in the world

KISS
