Top 5 Songs to Flee from the Police to

5.
Pearl Jam – Go

Sure it’s a little cheesy sounding. 'Go' is a muscle car anthem for Gen-X, but it’s an undeniable pulse raiser. The spiraling guitar lines and wailing solos are the perfect backdrop for a high speed car chase down urban roads. Ones preferably filled with unwitting pedestrians and plenty of other cars to hit.

4.
Rage Against the Machine – Know Your Enemy

Nowadays it's hard to believe that this once sounded different and daring, but I promise you it did. 'Know Your Enemy' is Rage at their most hard core punk inspired and their most aggressively defiant. The chugging riffs are alternately frantic feet on the pavement and punches in the face. Antiauthoritarianism at its rap-metal best.

3.
Miles Davis – Spanish Key

Now wait! I know what you’re thinking, “Miles Davis??? Has he lost his fucking mind?” I promise you, children, I have not. Go swiftly to your parent’s CD rack… or your cool uncle's… or perhaps iTunes… but go get Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew, and cue up 'Spanish Key' (bonus points if it’s on vinyl). Turn up the volume to an almost deafening level. That bass line? It's the sound of a racing heart and the horns are chaotic desperate gasps for breath. Between the 2:15 and 3:15 mark the song picks up a frantic claustrophobic pace. This song begs to be placed behind foot bound chase sequence.

2.
The Walkmen – The Rat

If you have an inexhaustible reservoir of energy -- and the lungs of an Olympic runner -- then perhaps this is the song for your run from the police. If you can keep up with the constant, almost unsustainable tempo, it's guaranteed that no donut eating cop will ever catch you. However, if you’re not in shape, the Roadrunner pace of the song may cause your heart to explode.

1.
Beastie Boys – Sabotage

Perhaps it’s the Chips-esque video that really solidifies this as number one. You can’t hear it without picturing cop mustaches and muscle cars. It’s a classic, considered by many to be the best video ever, while others think it's only the second best video ever. But the song certainly deserves to be here on its own merits. The sprinting chorded bass line is the anchor for the high adrenaline of the choppily played punk guitar and screaming testosterone of the yell-rapped vocals. The defiant lyrics are really secondary to the packaging but they certainly only bolster my argument that you couldn’t do any better than this song for the soundtrack to you flight from the authorities.
