No Picture Senour Average	#1 by Senour Dakota at Oct 3, 2007 at 10:22 AM EST
	Maybe the most political rock song of the 1980's...shows how politically unmotivated we were because this song protests the speed limit. Still, the song worked because the California speed limit is now 65. Killer song, but the speed limit change has dated it a little.

	we should turn america into the next autobahn, or however you spell it. but hell yea! this is my song!
