Sammy Hagar -- I can't drive 55


Comfort songs from my childhood -- today I heard Sammy Hagar's, "I Can't Drive 55," from his 1990 album, "VOA," on the Geffen Records label. Brought back memories of passing time by watching MTV at my grandparents' home. I loved this music video, had no idea what the politics of the song were about. Learning Sammy Hagar is a politically-aware Republican surprised me, given his wildness. I'm guessing the fiscal or social conservative platform attracts him, not the religious conservative platform. The text I read at Wikipedia doesn't say.
