Default do you ever sing to the Mark Levinson on the way to work

At the top of your lungs?

Me this AM..... "...Well I was born in the sign of water, And it's there that I feel my best, The albatross and the whales they are my brothers..."

I was also thinking, if you are not the original owner of the vehicle, there is a very good chance that the music that was played during the first 8-10 years of the vehicle's life, is very different than what is cranked today. Does the vehicle ever think dang this is absolutely crazy, I never signed up for this....

As a matter of fact...I am the 3rd owner, I guess the previous 2 doesn't do much on music to 'her", I think I am the current owner that change the vehicle's mind / lifestyle of music (if it's possible have thinking capability), so far I enjoyed every moment I turn on the tunes.

The ML system in my wife's GX certainly encourages singing. 17 speakers and it sounds orgasmic... the louder, the better.

Yesterday on the way home, I told myself chill bro, you need to chillax if you want to roll deep for cheep. But inevitably it happened again....

It started out normally, really softly... "All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see your eyes..."

But before you know it, I was almost screaming, "Meet you all the way, do do do, do do do do do do, meet you all the way, do do do, Rosah ah ah ahnna
Meet you all the way, do do do, do do do do do do, meet you all the way, do do do, Rosah ah ah ahnna"

I do it all the damn time. Any time these come on I sing the whole damn song

You get a shiver in the dark
It's raining in the park but meantime
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
You feel alright when you hear that music ring


or

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

Oh yeah babe, this is my era.....I remember as a kid, one of my rich buddies just got a brand new VW, and we drove down to Long Island to buy some high end speakers. (They fit, VWs have pretty good cargo with the hatch) Money for Nothing was cranked in the car. But this kid also loved classical, so he had this Tchaikovsky 1812 overture CD. We setup the new stereo in the apt. I had the amp cranked, and so when the cannons played, it blew out both pairs of brand new speakers. Friend not happy.

Haha, I think about that sometimes as well!

I'm the third owner and I have a feeling my car is quite confused by what it has been hearing lately. A lot of my music is in Japanese such as J-pop, Vocaloid, and some Japanese electronic music. When I'm not listening to that, I'm usually listening to the Chill or BPM channels on Sirius. Sometimes I'll jam to some Russian hard bass or just some other high energy music. I like to listen to a lot of trance remixes of anime theme songs. I've also been listening to a lot of trap, chill trap, vaporwave, and those kinds of genres lately.

I also listen to some "normal music" like '90's hits, punk, classic rock, oldies, some reggae and ska type music. Plus, I listen to a lot of news on Sirius. So I guess the car gets a break sometimes. But honestly, I listen to so many genres it is ridiculous. I have a very wide range of music types that I like.
