That song must have been played every hour. I got so sick of hearing ‘music’ of guys yelling at the top of their lungs into the microphone, that I left earplugs in all day.

Yep, no fan of the song, but as with many songs it has an interesting story behind it.

Hagar should make a new version saying, “I can’t drive. I’m Joe Biiiiiiiiden”.

I think ‘I can’t drive 55’ was the admission of many guys like me, decades before anybody had heard that song.

Whether it was influenced from an actual experience or not, millions of people can relate to habitually speeding. So, nomatter how good or bad the song sounds, it had a ready following.

I just wasn’t one in the following.
