Road trip music

[enigmatictraveler22]

Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and I was wondering if anyone has any favorite songs or music they listen to on road trips. I plan to go on one in late June after I get out of college. I am currently making a list of songs for the journey. The songs listed below is what I have listed so far.

1. Go your own way by fleetwood mac
2. Running up that hill by kate bush
3. 500 miles by the proclaimers
4. Building A Mystery by Sarah McLachlan
5. American Pie by Don McLean

I am open to suggestions if anyone has any. ;)

I have quite a few songs that get played on a regular basis when out on the road. However, almost every trip can be brought back to mind by some unexpected song that I heard on the trip. One time (Yellowstone, '97) it was a hard rock version of "Ring of Fire" by Johnny Cash -and- "One Piece at a Time", also by Johnny Cash. Usually these songs end up in the play list as well, keeping fresh the memories of trips past while encountering new and strange locations.

I am happy to note that one more member has joined our forum. I would welcome him with open hands. I am delighted to note that he is a music enthusiast. Regarding road trip music my all time favorite will be “Everybody wants to rule the world” by Tears for Fears. It is an amazing track.
