❝ The machine of a dream
Such a clean machine
With the pistons a pumpin’
Аnd the hubcaps all gleam
When I’m holding your wheel
Аll I hear is your gear
With my hand on your grease gun
Oooh, it’s like a disease, son
I’m in love with my car
Got a feel for my automobile
Get a grip on my boy-racer rollbar
Such a thrill when your radials squeal
Told my girl I’d have to forget her
Rather buy me a new carburettor
So, she made tracks, saying
“This is the end now”
“Cars don’t talk back”
“They’re just four-wheeled friends, now”
When I’m holding your wheel
Аll I hear is your gear
When I’m cruisin’ in overdrive
Don’t have to listen
To no run-of-the-mill talk jive
I’m in love with my car
(In love with my car, in love with my car)
Got a feel for my automobile
I’m in love with my car
(In love with my car, in love with my car)
String back gloves in my automo-love ❞

Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
