Chicago: Lake Shore Drive at Night - Southbound REMIX

[@InetteMotoBiker]

Driving southbound on Lake Shore Drive is truely one of my favorite things to do. It doesn't matter if it's night or day.

Chicago really is the most beautiful city there is!

[@PRHILL9696]

@@samberfpppo1014 Goo cry to your mommy little one. What I said is a fact. You sad Troll

[@Djchicago1]

Texas is trash

[@Peepininmywindow]

Can't believe I only just found this. Some nights I like to do this in Houston, just hop in the Caddy, put this on repeat and just drive for no reason. I can see why most people don't do it considering we are a city of 3-4 million people, but you'd be surprised what you can catch and how mind clearing it is. Man kudos for this, a great great video.

[@WendyOWilbury]

A dream commute and a Friday night drive with great music ❤

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you!

[@ChiTownBallin2]

Such a great song to an even GREATER drive! Thanks for the compliment. And well done on the cruise! I love and appreciate how beautiful you make my city look. Keep it up. You've got a subscriber!!!

[@AlvinHDavernport]

Words just don't do this justice. Thanks for uploading again, Jim. This is arguably my favorite video of yours, if not my favorite freeway/highway video, period. And the song is also a fantastic fit. I'd give it ten stars out of five if I could, but there's no such thing and KZbin doesn't do stars anymore. Phenomenal!

[@expresswayjess]

Amazing how just a change in music alters the feel of a video. Thumbs up.

[@Plum56Chevy]

@Freewayjim Thank you, for sharing this poignant video via the KZbin media. Your magnificent images of Chicago’s Lake Shore Drive plus the City skylights @ night including “Summer Madness” by Kool & The Gang is so fitting for a long gone Chicago friend - Bless you & your Son for your vision & creativity. Gato.

[@cjs121675]

I was wondering when we'd see you again! I love watching your vids man! I can't wait to see what new routes you have for this year!!!!

[@PopLightBrown]

What a classic you chose for this remix! Big ups...

[@remixedv]

This is so weird. The other day I was thinking about your videos and how you should do one to Dave Grusin - Mountain Dance. Glad to see you posting.

[@Jazzman7893]

When this song came on I couldn't believe it! It was one of my favorite songs of last years and it still is. So glad to see it on one of your vids. ps: you must like the LSD drive alot!

[@GSDadd]

I know this is Chicago but I can’t help feeling like I’m in Philadelphia as this cool & the gang track was in the original Rocky movie. Taking me back to a good time!

[@Freewayjim]

@AlvinHDavernport Thank you so much, glad you like it!

[@jovanmallard567]

Great video and the music. Do some more like this in in real times bro!!

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you, I don't do "real time" they are boring, 50 MPH looks and feels like 25 MPH on video.

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you very much! I enjoy a good spin around Atlanta at night for the same reasons you mentioned.

[@norman6694]

Beautiful, brings back memories

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you! I was only in Chicago for the one night so I don't have any real insight as to wether it's a great place to live or not. I imagine it would be though.

[@AlabamaElevators]

i love the music it was stuck in my head all day

[@2004JETTA]

That was really really awesome, keep up the great work!!!!!

[@Freewayjim]

@4CNathan Thanks and yes you are correct, it was blocked in so many countries I decided to take it down and replace it with something that wouldn't be blocked.

[@Freewayjim]

@xDxVxDxfan Thanks, I don't live in Chicago and it will be a few years before I probably come back but thanks for the suggestion.

[@Abcgum64]

Oh I so wish... I have been through a lot the past few months, and decided it's not my time yet. However, it is still on my future wish list, and I know I will make happen in the future!!!

[@Freewayjim]

@ChiTownBallin2 Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@jaarmen3]

Great video. Perfect Kool and the Gang groove for this ride.

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you!

[@THEJOKER440]

chicago is really great city i love it i was there :(

[@Freewayjim]

@RT378 Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@Freewayjim]

@GigaElectricBird It is GORGEOUS at night, hope you enjoy a great trip.

[@Freewayjim]

@Jazzman7893 Thanks, yes I loved cruising LSD, I drove it a few times in different light settings from dusk to dark.

[@Freewayjim]

@cjs121675 Thanks, I probably won't film anything new until the spring but I might do a few other remixes for videos that got taken down by the music police :)

[@Freewayjim]

Summer Madness by Kool & The Gang, it was mentioned at 0:58 and in the closing credits.

[@haytnas]

omg haven't heard that song since vice city! Perfect choice

[@Jazzmaster1992]

SUMMER MADNESS! Out of season but who cares..great freaking song and video!!

[@pimpHO87]

He's back!

[@Freewayjim]

@arian50 I really don't do that much driving, this was part of one 6 day trip I did over the summer, that was it for 2011. Yes it is expensive but I try to make the most of the time I get to be out on the road.

[@empresslisa6875]

Beautiful lights

[@Freewayjim]

@ljr3000onforesthill Thanks, Happy New Years to you!

[@bbranda1]

god i love you. Thank you for this.

[@Freewayjim]

@PelicanGuy Thank you!

[@101southsideboy]

Prior 1989 the north bounds lanes ran to the east of the Field Museum and soldier field and south bound lanes ran to the west side of the the places mentioned . When both the S/B and N/B Lanes were shifted to the west side This created what is today known as the MUSEUM CAMPUS which connects 3 of Chicago's museums ( Field Museum , Adler Planetarium , and Shedd Aquarium) along with Northern Island , Soldier ' Field & McCormick Place

[@GunsNRosesbitches]

Chicago has the best cityscape in the country, not New York, not SF..

[@buzzerbeater37]

Is that Soldier Field on the left at 4:00?

[@Freewayjim]

@TheRandallExperience Thank you!

[@Freewayjim]

@Plum56Chevy Thank you so much!

[@Freewayjim]

@SnowWhiteDove7 Thank you!

[@Freewayjim]

You are very welcome!

[@Freewayjim]

@Suproctologo Thank you!

[@mickeydii]

I noticed that most of the streetlighting along the way looks like LED, Light Emitting Diodes. Could that be what it is? Only very little streetlighting looked like High Pressure Sodium.

[@Freewayjim]

Love Jamiroquai and that whole CD is great.

[@Freewayjim]

@bsdpowa Thanks, and yes you are correct, no tolls.

[@Freewayjim]

@2004JETTA Thank you!

[@szmitz]

beautiful city

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you!

[@Freewayjim]

@CAMINOANDALUZ Thank you!

[@Freewayjim]

@THEJOKER440 Olive Park and Gateway Park I think, not from Chicago so I just looked at a map.

[@TheRandallExperience]

yea as a chicagoan we def drive a bit fast but i must say lovely song to add to the video

[@ChrisIaM]

AHH Chicago home to water ice,hotdogs, and the tallest skyscraper in the us.

[@Freewayjim]

I think I might agree with you on that.

[@StukInBuf]

This is like driving on FDR Drive(Manhattan), or the Storrow Drive(Boston).

[@TracyAllen]

Yep... your video made the song I'm telling you about HOT! You may not like the music (Jamiroqui's "Traveling Without Moving") but, it flows with the video really nicely.

[@lyricsfromsweden]

heey, youre back!

[@Freewayjim]

@gladef Thank you!

[@screwedupguymiddleschool4613]

one of the best city in america. Lake shore drive is so fun just take away the people who cut you off and flip you off then it may be the best in the country!

[@Freewayjim]

@Yoshiisland12345 Thank you!

[@Freewayjim]

@buzzerbeater37 Yes it is.

[@Freewayjim]

@expresswayjess Very true, thanks!

[@alex9ap1]

AWESOME

[@Freewayjim]

@eluko79 Thanks!

[@Freewayjim]

@alex9ap1 Thanks!

[@THEJOKER440]

what is name of the park ( left video ) at 3:00 ?

[@arian50]

How do you afford all this driving?

[@Freewayjim]

I love Jamiroquai! I've used several of their songs in my vids.

[@GertLadefoged]

Great video

[@jorrogboe]

what car do you drive?

[@12x]

smooth

[@101southsideboy]

the land surrounding ( and including) LSD did not exist until after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 . IT is all land fill from the 1971 G. C.F . the original shore was just east of the Illinois Central RR tracks ( now called the Canadian National RR or CN for short )

[@breebrooks5294]

this were i used to leave but i live in georgia now

[@lyricsfromsweden]

i thought the song you played was Get Your Groove On by Mad Skillz at first so i was like "WOAW!" but then i realized it was the song he sampled for his own so then i was like "yeah!" lol, you will probably read this comment like a marijuana addict

[@charlestonchewy]

That's Navy Pier.

[@WendyOWilbury]

❤❤❤

[@Suproctologo]

YOU rock!

[@nicholasreese7837]

ROLLIN ON LSD.

[@Freewayjim]

@remixedv I do like that song, maybe someday :)

[@TracyAllen]

Love it! Another song you should check out while watching this is Jamiroqui's "Traveling Without Moving". I love to watch driving at night videos while listening to music. I like the Summer Madness! Check it out though! I would love to know what you think! Thank you for sharing!

[@breebrooks5294]

im fron chicago

[@SansAziza]

I can't suggest a move here if you smoke.

[@Spillinsanity72]

Why in the hell would you not use the Aliotta Haynes & Jeremiah song "Lake Shore Drive"..... just slipping on by on LSD.... Missed the boat on that one my friend.

[@Freewayjim]

+Craig Spiller There are a lot of songs to pick from that would have worked, I felt the mood of this footage did not fit with that song, and FYI I was not aware of that song at the time I made this video so sue me and spare me the "why in the hell....", what is obvious to you is not obvious to everyone else. The video turned out fine, so IMO I did miss the boat on anything.

[@Freewayjim]

+Craig Spiller BTW I'm not from Chicago and I had only spent a few hours there prior to this trip so I'm not keen on all the local ins and outs, again, what is obvious to you is not obvious to everyone else.

[@Spillinsanity72]

I'm just busting your chops. I'm a lifelong Chicagoan.....sometimes we forget that it was just a regional hit song.

[@Spillinsanity72]

Hopefully you were able to stop and enjoy some of the great food we have here.

[@Freewayjim]

+Craig Spiller That's cool...chop busting tends to go over better in person than in text :)
