Do you listen to your own songs while driving?
Well? Do you?

Just did today, lol.......... I'm trying to get it ready to post on the October SOTM club.
But, I always leave room for talk radio, and professional Music. Cuz, I gotta keep it varied.
If you've ever listened to my output on here you'd realise this would be a very bad idea, particularly if I have passengers.
that's how I test out all my mixes - in the car! I usually export an mp3 and listen to a track in my car several times, making mental notes about mix and arrangement. Then I go back and make changes and export another mp3 and listen again in the car...

I listen to a lot of music in the car, so it one of my most reliable ways of testing a mix. As @Halftone says above, I will burn a CD master, go and drive round the country lanes for a bit and head home to make some adjustments.
I still suck composing, but I do listen to my songs while driving sometimes. Car speakers have something special that helps me noticing mistakes or things I can improve.
while walking with super crappy earbuds
What @xen said :-)
Good idea to check a mix in the car, but for social listening, no never!
Yup!
I play tracks in the car and come up with other parts or instruments or words to add to it. Get most of my ideas that way.
For pleasure, as I would any one else's songs; or, as analysis of a work in progress?
I've got some audio files through iCloud .
This is what i've been meaning to do but i keep forgetting to pick up some earbuds! But yeah listening to you tracks in different environments is and different playback systems a great thing to do. If you're talking about finished tracks no.
Sometimes. Don't drive that much though since I live in London.
I occasionally slip a track on the work stereo (without anyone knowing its my track). I find this to be the best test because:
you get an idea of how it sounds sandwiched between two professional tracks
you get an idea of how it cuts through other ambient noise and still 'works' (or not)
you get that moment of clarity you get when realising that other people are listening.
I can't be in the room when other people are listening to my music. Kinda puts a limitation on live performance.
I like to drive while listening to old songs that I deleted all the project files for, makes me soak in the impermanence of everything, or something...
I separate music 'genres' by listening environments, not styles. And I make a lot of good windows-down driving music, so the final mixes always get the car test just before they're sent to mastering.
Only when they come on the radio.
Same as many of the above, whenever I'm working on a mix. For one, I have an absolutely bitchin' stereo in the Mitsubishi. Two, I have a hell of a time making it sound good in my good earphones, ear buds, on the iPad, and in the mitsu. When I get it sounding decent on all of them, I'm getting close.
Test my mixes and yes.
+1 - as Tony Stark once said, "I swear he beat me by like, one second."
I tend to listen to my tracks in my car (plugging my iPhone into the AUX jack) but not necessarily while driving, since being able to fiddle with the controls with the short cable is troublesome. My Element has a pretty decent sound system (for my noob ears) so I can get a decent take on the mix at any rate.
The system in my AMC Gremlin is terrible, so no.
Bass, bass, bass, the harbinger of us all, if it's got good bass response use it, then you need to feel it not hear it.
Varieties of Motion, title of Santiago's sex tape.
One of my musical playgrounds is parody songs (a la 'Weird Al'), directed mostly at the various talk radio shows on a local radio station (and all of this came from my starting out tweeting cartoons I would draw on the fly while listening). The first one of these was a cover of Devo's 'Don't Shoot' that I renamed after a show catch-phrase for a certain population of callers dubbed 'dumb dicks'.
One evenings they had just played an original homage song by one of the listeners, and the disparaging review calls started rolling in. Since I had weeks before posted the song to Soundcloud I retweeted the link, and the show host read my tweet on air ('Play 'Dumb Dicks') and proceeded to do just that. The whole song! They were laughing their asses off the whole time! Such a great feeling...
