This is one of many from a video game called Gran Turismo 5.
You play this thing for a year and the music becomes familiar.
Really amazing for a video game, they also have classical music, and of course techo-electronic for those into that style music.
The songs play throughout the game, at random.

Bert Kaempfert -- That Happy Feeling (1962)
When I was a kid back in the '70s one of the local TV stations used to play this song in a continuous loop for an hour before beginning their broadcast day which began at 2:00 PM in the afternoon. I used to get antsy listening to this song while waiting for Speed Racer, Kimba, The Three Stooges and The Little Rascals which this station used to air. lol

One of my very favorite songs.

[video=youtube_share;qvVAc8ef9vI]http://youtu.be/qvVAc8ef9vI[/video]

She weren't much to look at, she weren't much to ride
She was missing a window on her passenger side
The floorboard was patched up with paper and tar
But I really was something in my old yellow car

An American boy with his hands on the wheel
Of a dream that was made of American steel
Though the seats had the smell of a nickel cigar
I really was something in my old yellow car

Somewhere in a pile of rubber and steel
Thee's a rusty old shell of an automobile
And if engines could run on desire alone
That old yellow car would be driving me home

There's the seat where poor Billy threw up in his date
And where Larry and Sally could no longer wait
There was no road too winding and nowhere too far

With two bucks of gas and my old yellow car

Somewhere in a pile of rubber and steel
Thee's a rusty old shell of an automobile
And if engines could run on desire alone
That old yellow car would be driving me home

Take a look at me now throwing money around
I'm paying somebody to drive me downtown
Got a Mercedes Benz with a TV and bar
And God I wish I was driving my old yellow car
God I wish I was driving my old yellow car

You get up every morning 'fore the sun comes up
Toss a lunchbox into a pickup truck
A long, hard day sure ain't much fun
But you've gotta get it started if you wanna get it done
You set your mind and roll up your sleeves
You're workin' on a working man's Ph.D.

With your heart in your hands and the sweat on your brow
You build the things that really make the world go around
If it works, if it runs, if it lasts for years
You bet your bottom dollar it was made right here
With pride, honor and dignity
From a man with a working man's Ph.D.

Now there ain't no shame in a job well done
From driving a nail to driving a truck
As a matter of fact I'd like to set things straight
A few more people should be pullin' their weight
If you wanna crash course in reality
You get yourself a working man's Ph.D.

When the quittin' whistle blows and the dust settles down
There ain't no trophies or cheering crowds
You'll face yourself at the end of the day
And be damn proud of whatever you've made
Can't hang it on the wall for the world to see
But you've got yourself a working man's Ph.D.

Now there ain't no shame in a job well done
From driving a nail to driving a truck
As a matter of fact I'd like to set things straight
A few more people should be pullin' their weight
If you wanna crash course in reality
You get yourself a working man's Ph.D.

And here's a take on yet another kind of schooling...
Tsai Chin -- School In Cheltenham

[video=youtube;5fZUdwIo9LM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fZUdwIo9LM[/video]

I went to school in Cheltenham
At a fashionable ladies' college
Where I learned what's what and acquired a lot
Of exceedingly practical knowledge

Our reading, writing, 'rithmetic
Was positively mediocre
But we got pretty slick at the three-card trick
And we played a pretty hand of poker

We were rather weak at the Latin and Greek
But we worked with considerable fervor
And we had to cram for an English exam
On "Lady Chatterley's Lover"

I loved my school in Cheltenham
With a chestnut tree so shady
And I now embrace all the charm and grace
Of a typical English Lady

I shared a room in Cheltenham
With a daughter of the landed gentry
Whose most refined little one-track mind
Was completely elementary

Our marks in French and Algebra
Were a series of disasters
But at forging checks or at S-E-X
We were absolute past masters

In the Upper Sixth Form we were studying form
And we put all the money with the porter
And at night the Head used to tuck us in bed
With an outsized whiskey and water

Let us give three cheers for Cheltenhan
Where the chestnut trees are shady
Where I learnt of vice and all things nice
Like a typical English Lady

Joel David -- Old Bones
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIJYR27QMhM

Old bones inside of old raincoats
Old bones inside of old shoes
Old friends at the hotel stop by the wishing well
And keep me up to date with all the old news

Sometimes I have a little whiskey
And I fall asleep in my chair
Then I dream that I'm a man much younger than I am
But I guess you think by now that I wouldn't care

But I love life, I want to do it again
Though I might not be much more than I've ever been
Just to have a chance to turn back the hands and let me live again
Yes, I love life, I want to do it again

It's time for taking it easy
And it's time to take it real slow
Cause old bones don't move so fast
As they did once in the past
Now if have to run I simply don't go

But I love life, I want to do it again
Though I might not be much more than I've ever been
Just to have a chance to turn back the hands and let me live again
Yes, I love life, I want to do it again
