Here's song about my very first car. Because it was so long ago I made the music sound like back then. MORE LOOKS THAN HORSEPOWERhttps://soundclick.com/song/15258240[Instrumental Intro] [Verse] Eighteen years old in a small German town Fresh license in hand, windows rolled down Had a job to chase, a few miles far So I bought a dark red, pimped-up car [Verse] A Ford Fiesta with the rally stripes Black spoilers made it look real nice Clutch pedal shaking under nervous feet Thinking I owned every Autobahn street [Pre-chorus] Gauges telling things I didn't need to read Made a lot of noise, but didn't have the speed [Chorus] It was more looks than horsepower, of course Lowered suspension but no real force Black spoiler shining underneath the lights Flying through those small-town summer nights I learned real quick you can’t fake what’s real Dressing up the frame won’t change how you feel It still drives like any rusted ride Yeah, it was more looks than horsepower inside [Break] [Verse] That little Fiesta hardly drank a drop Ran forever on the money I got Still I’d wash and polish it every weekend Like that little Ford was my best friend [Verse] Daddy kept saying, “Son, save your cash A plain old car’ll get you there just as fast" But I was too young and too proud to hear I thought cool chrome made the road more clear [Pre-chorus] Round dash dials glowing red and green Trying way too hard to be some machine [Chorus] It was more looks than horsepower, of course Lowered suspension but no real force Black spoiler shining underneath the lights Flying through those small-town summer nights I learned real quick you can’t fake what’s real Dressing up the frame won’t change how you feel It still drives like any rusted ride Yeah, it was more looks than horsepower inside [Bridge] Funny how the things we think will make us proud Turn into the lessons we laugh about now That little Fiesta never won a race But it helped a young man find his place [Interlude] [Final chorus] It was more looks than horsepower, of course All shine and style but no real force Still I’d give anything for one more ride With those rally stripes running down the side ’Cause growing up means learning over time What turns your head won’t always change your life But every young heart needs a dream to drive Even if it’s more looks than horsepower inside [Outro] Yeah, more looks than horsepower inside

"The standard by which I now measure the things in my life is the following: If I was on my death bed, or if I knew I had a short time to live, would this issue be important? If the answer is no.. I don't sweat it at all. If the answer is Yes, you better believe it goes to the front of the order of today's business!" -Brian Austin Whitney
