One For The Road - Song at 1:26 (after crossing the lake)

Posted by madein___@reddit | thegrandtour | View on Reddit | 23 comments

I finally gathered myself and watched last evening.

Does anyone happen to know the song playing at the 1hr 26min mark? They've just crossed the lake and decided to finish the trip in Botswana.

If looked for it on other soundtrack posts but have not had much luck.

Thank you, also been trying to find this

This is it!

How did you manage to find it?

I'm glad! I used the AHA Music song finder (Chrome extension). It sounded like stock music and this finder does pretty well at identifying them, even with voices overlaid (I had to play the scene a few times before it picked it up).

Thank you. I'll give that song finder a try.

On another note what’s up with that garbage red state rap Monte Carlo song? It was so garbage and felt so out of place

You’re looking for Brothers in Arms or Monte Carlo

Unfortunately it's not either of those songs.

It is an upbeat drum / guitar riff just as they start driving. You see someone sitting in the trunk of a sedan and it stops as they hit a road withassive potholes.

Try Celluoid Skies by Vasco and Pat

Not that one either, but it's a similar sound. I think they used Celluloid skies in the Vietnam Seamen special.

I'm starting to think it is stock music.

Shazam it?

[-]

I tried Shazam first and then looked at other soundtrack posts.

Unfortunately, neither option had the answer.

I can’t quite remember if it’s this one but is it love will tear us apart - joy division.

James is wearing a joy division t shirt and I remember they played one of their songs after showing that.

That scene with Joy Division came a bit earlier in the special.

I'm starting to think it is just stock music they've played in other episodes.

I can’t check the timestamp currently but is this the slow song at the end? If so it’s Brothers in Arms by Dire Straights

[-]

madein___@reddit (OP)

I don't think that's it.

It is an upbeat drum / guitar riff just as they start driving. You see someone sitting/waving in the trunk of a sedan and the song stops as they hit a road withassive potholes.

Shazam it

Shazam was my first move before posting. It couldn't find it.

I appreciate the suggesteed songs though.
