I was going to say yes and make a joke about song choice, but then realized that if this were actually happening then I’d probably be too distraught and focused on getting to her to queue up a sound track so was going to say no, but then I realized in my distraught state focing on getting to my kidnapped wife I probably wouldn’t bother to turn off the radio which is always on by default in my car… so basically, yes, I’d be listening to the local radio station at a moderate volume.
That’s OK. The local radio is playing Knights of Cidonia and a recent gust short circuited the volume control.
My car automatically starts my music from my phone when I plug it in for GPS. I’d probably be too distraught to turn it off.
Life is not an action movie. If that actually happened I wouldn’t be blindly throwing myself in the middle of a group of armed/dangerous guys. I’d be calling the cops (they’re more trained than I am to handle the situation) and freak out hoping nothing bad happens to her.
they’re more trained than I am to handle the situation
Whoa bold assumption there bud. You might want to recheck your math on that one.
We don’t have guns where I’m from, and I don’t have a car. So I’m more likely to get myself killed.
No no I’m pretty sure the math maths out.
So, even in your fantasies you’re ineffective and reliant?
Nah, I’m my fantasies I go Rambo style and slice everyone with a tactical knife while wearing a ghillie suit and warpaint, before carrying my wife victoriously in my arms to safety…but that wasn’t the point was it ?
I need a hero
Yessss, channel your inner Shrek.
Nah I chat with the other people in the car.
Listen I’m down to risk my life to save my wife, but I’m getting a gang together to do it. Going alone is suicide
Fucking smart. Thanks for the tip. My car is still playing music cause we need the mood, but now that my brothers are in the car the soundtrack is harder to choose.
I’m thinking Jeru the Damaja, but whatever those two dickheads can agree on should work.
Making my way downtown 🎶
Music. Need to perform at my best, after all.
Drive soundtrack intensifies
I’m going to show you where it’s dark, but have no fear…
Excuse you, I’m driving a rescue mission with my windows UP.
And the AC is BLASTING.
“So anyways I started blastin’ [the AC]”
when did i get a wife and why is she only 30 minutes away from me, and why do i know this?
Hell i should be asking where i am now.
LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOOOOOOOOORRRRRR!!!
Nope, conzentration at such stressful situations is important. Also, your adrenaline spikes up making you not even want to have music.
Nah, there’s a reason that drums have been used for war for thousands of years. You need epic battle music.
<insert darksouls boss fight music>
That’s for getting you pumped up to fight when you don’t want to and would rather just kind of wander off. The situation described, you’re fully engaged without hesitation or choice.
I’d probably have an audiobook going. Then when I got there, I would probably have to sit in the car for a few minutes to get to a good stopping point. I’m sure the kidnappers would understand.
I would be playing Holding Out for a Hero by Bonnie Tyler on repeat driving 90 mph with the windows down
Out of all the great suggestions ITT, I think I like this one the best. But I would be the kidnapped wife in this situation, so I don’t get to pick the music.
Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross - The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo soundtrack
I’d stop for trash bags and stuff on the way. My wife is the one they should be afraid of.
Not quite the music for such an occasion, but their work on The Social Network goes unreasonably hard
Yeah man, I’m cranking Bulls on Parade while I do air punches and load my pistol.
Edit: maybe followed up with some Real Muthaphuckkin G’s.
