in no particular order :
1. Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple
2. Money for nothing - Dire straits
3. Poison - Alice Cooper
4. Eye of the Tiger - Survivor
5. Hurts so good - John Mellencamp

I only have personal faves, not really general public ones:
1. Monopoly on Sorrow - Suicidal Tendencies
2. Mighty Fine Pie - Endless Boogie
3. Anything by Clutch
4. Servo - Brian Jonestown Massacre
5........
This list could go on for a long time. I cut 70-100 song MP3 discs, all of which are good for driving music ???
Edit: in the spirit of the thread though I would add:
All Day and All of the Night - The Kinks
My Sharona - The Knack
White Room - Cream
Alive - Pearl Jam
Superunknown - Soundgarden
Feel Good Time - Pink

Well I started typing up a list - a sort of alternate top 20 because I find most of that classic rock stuff quite boring. But it would also have made me look like a pretentious merchant banker so I canned it.
But I will offer one or three suggestions
1) For a John Mellencamp song I'd have "Little Pink Houses"
2) For a Springsteen song for a motorvating type compliation I'd go for "Darlington County"
3) There must surely be a place for "Waterloo Sunset". If that's not classic pop I don't know what is.

The above playlists would mostly drive me around the bend!!!! May a s well put Heart or Meatloaf on repeat. Meh. I'm more of an album fan, never take a band seriously based on a single.
When I need to get somewhere, the following applies.
-Decapitated: Nihility
-Pantera: Far beyond driven
-Ministry: Jesus built my Hotrod
-Fear Factory: Demanufacture
On long drives in the countryside the following applies
-Portishead; Dummy
-Fields of the Nephilim: Elizium
-Wolves in the Throne Room: The Two Hunters
-Opeth: Blackwater Park

I understand power ballads as a soppy song with rock guitars ?
At the moment my car playlist runds, from Original Fleetwood Mac, to Chemical Romance to buck Cherry. And I have a bit of Meatloaf in there too :-[

Ok, I would not quite open the door and jump out to end my suffering if I where your passenger. At least your car would'nt bounce down the highway. Doef doef. Kurdt Daaaren.
