Gin Blossoms Drove My Car
Nothing’s more uplifting than listening to Gin Blossoms. I never miss their albums since they debuted in the late 80s. Actually, from the start, I bought their CDs from their very first album up to the latest.
New Miserable Experience, The Millennium Collection, Up and Crumbling, Dusted, Congratulations I’m Sorry, Major Lodge Victory etc. I have them all!
Oh yes, I’m a pure-blooded Gin Blossom fanatic! I never miss listening to one of Gin Blossoms’ tracks whenever I drive my car. I mean you should try it, too, for this group’s song are feel-good music to the soul, especially when driving during a long trip and you’ll never get bored traveling with Gin Blossoms! Just like the cooling parts in your car that give you that relaxing feeling!
I want to share one of my personal favorites with you - the song “My Car”. Try to look at the wonderful lyrics and listen to its soulful harmony. Hope you’ll like it and I’m pretty sure you’ll do!

My Car
Gin Blossoms
Streetlights on, the night air’s cool
I’m driving right past my old school
I’m looking for my pack of cigarettes
I’m thinking back on things I’ve done
I can’t forget the stupid ones
It seems I do my best by accident
What’s that sound, what’s that song
What’s this street I’m driving on
In my car
In my car
I miss her feel, her touch, her taste
I feel the distance everyplace
This distance can’t be taken casually
I take my time, just drive around
Feeling lost in my hometown
Every turn I take is comforting
What’s that sound, what’s that song
What’s this street I’m driving on
In my car
In my car
I’ll take a break from all their big plans
My first mistake was listening to them
I made a mess it’s all been proven
Over and over again
Over and over again
Streetlights on, the night air’s cool
I’m driving right past my old school
Looking for some face I can’t forget
I take my time, just drive around
Feeling lost in my hometown
Every turn I take’s an accident
What’s that sound, what’s that song…
