Datemi un benzinaio (Live version 2003) - Daniele Silvestri
...because there honestly aren't enough banging rock songs about searching for a petrol station while speeding down a rainy slippery motorway at 100km/h on a Saturday night with the headlights failing and the motor making funny noises :)

Run To The Hills - Iron Maiden

From the Top Gun soundtrack ("I feel the need, the need for speed"), Danger Zone - Kenny Loggins

A less-serious suggestion, mainly because I don't love it as a piece of music, but feel like it needs mentioning because iirc it holds the record for highest bpm of a released single:
Thousand - Moby

Dear Mr @DJDarren, I wish to protest in the strongest possible terms about the graphic for this week's #ThePlaylist, cos of wot it makes my podcast player's dropdown look like it has a glitch with a great big vertical line through it.

Yours etc etc, A Late Kate

Late Kate'ing #thePlaylist, as is my want, and Mrs Gascoigne has suggested the wonderful Bjork/Arnold collab of Play Dead.

I've always been taken with the bassline on this one...is it Jah Wobble?

since recommending this for next week’s #thePlaylist, I have been #NowPlaying this fantastic track on repeat

@WiteWulf @DJDarren who wouldn’t love to hear some Primus on #ThePlaylist? I did suggest Sailing the Seas of Cheese in cheese week, but no dice.

“This radio station was named Kowalski, in honor of the last American hero to whom speed means freedom of the soul. The question is not when he's gonna stop, but who is gonna stop him.”

NEXT WEEK ON #ThePlaylist, your theme is:

Fast

Or, for our Northern comrades, 'fast'.

Will the tunes rocket along at 300bpm, or will they be about being fast? Or a secret third option. It's entirely up to you!

Fling your ideas this way using #ThePlaylistSuggestion, and together we'll build another splendid radio show.
