I'm looking for a song. I know it came out 7 years ago. It was played on "alternative rock" radio, and then I think it made it onto the pop radio stations. It had like a latin feel or sound, and it was about driving or a road trip. It came out right before "How Bazaare". The song is not "you let me change lanes while I was driving in my car whoever you are". I've been looking for it forever.

How about The Men - Church of Logic Sin & Love. It was mostly narrated, with a sung refrain.
Quote:
They weren't surprised by the wind and rain
They took off anyway -- east, I think that's what they did
They were just two of the wildest, bored creatures on earth
Fed up with work, strip bars and loneliness galore
In an old oldsmobile that one of them bought off their father
They ate up so much road -- they was grinnin'
(Then they came upon the thing)
chorus
This is real -- this is now
This is the freak show baby anyhow
On the church of logic, sin and love
Heals the curious magic soul
Big top drama from head to toe
Cactus, venom, rodeo
On the church of logic, sin and love
Two hours later they decided to stop at a diner
Because they loved the smell of eggs and coffee
I just had to smoke a cigarette and wear a hat
By the time that they set off again, the sun was starting to set
It made the sky look red like a nuclear ray
One of them said "what do you want more than anything
in this whole wide world
Do you want mokey, do you want sex, or do you want all that succes?"
I thought about that myself
(Then they came upon the thing)
chorus
The thing ahead sixty miles, do no miss
Not for the squeamish or depressed, not for the unbelievers
Truly obsessed -- something you just don't wanna miss
It's the kind of place where space explorers could have landed
Around 1963 -- when John F. Kennedy was in Life Magazine
And everything was aqua marine, aque marine
chorus out...
