Stone Temple Pilots - Interstate Love Song. By far.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Runnin' Down a Dream. Obligatory. Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - 2nd Ave., 11 am. Oh yes. |

In addition to Ride of the Valkryies, Bohemian Rhapsody is always a good one (especially with friends).

I always find it entirely depends on my mood and the traffic I'm in.
Good mood and clear roads something heavy with a lot of guitar - get the blood pumping and th etruck moving. So/so - bad mood or lots of traffic and I prefer smooth jazz or classical - keeps me calmer and allows for more behaved driving in those situations. |
oh gosh...
i can't believe i forgot "everlong" by the foo fighters. ::hangs head in shame:: |
There are plenty of good driving tunes out there, each has a time and place.
More than a decade ago, I remember I was in the car while my dad was driving and the song "In the Mood" by Robert Plant came on (Phil Collins plays the drums). It totally suited the moment, and I recall we both stopped talking to listen to the song. It still has a special place in my heart and I think it makes a beautiful late night driving song. That, and another song off the same album called "Big Log." |
Linkin Park - Meteora
Gladiator Soundtrack Loreena McKinnet Weird Al |
I saw Radar Love and anything from Weezer's Blue album listed. Both fine choices, but if you want the ultimate road trip song, it has to be Open Road Song by Eve 6. It is always the first cd in on any road trip.
|
Anything but techno.
(I personally like 112, Alicia Keys, some 80's .. the list goes on) |
I made a cruising CD that was specifically made for my friend and I to listen to on our way down and back from Houston. We were headed there for a small Mustang meet, and we didn't know if there would be any racing involved but wanted a high-energy CD to cruise with - here's what we put on there, but this isn't in order of tracklisting, it's just in alpha order, as I can't find the actual CD at the moment.
Deftones - My Own Summer Disturbed - Stupify, Voices Drowning Pool - Bodies, Tear Away Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff, Eat You Alive Linkin Park - A Place for My Head, One Step Closer Metallica - Seek and Destroy, Stone Cold Crazy Pearl Jam - Evenflow (Live from Washington DC, 7 minutes long!) Mudvayne - Dig Primer 55 - Loose Staind - Spleen, Mudshovel White Zombie - More Human Than Human We also threw some Strongbad songs on there as interludes of sorts. Other than those... I do enjoy Meteora and Hybrid Theory as cruising music but the cds are way too short for long trips, so I consolidated them onto one cd, much better! I enjoy live Pearl Jam as well... Rearviewmirror is a good driving song. I second the vote for STP's Interstate Love Song as well. The main three bands that I listen to in the car are PJ, Linkin Park, and Staind though... with the occasional Hendrix, Faith No More, or 311 thrown in there. |

Satan is My Motor - Cake The Distance - Cake Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen Lola - The Kinks Soul Bossa Nova - Quincy Jones Imperial March - Rage Against the Machine Hurt - Johnny Cash Indifference - Pearl Jam That's probably about a quarter of it...

LA Woman - The Doors
Road Angel - The Doobie Brothers Cowboy Romance - Mission of Burma Jessica - The Allman Brothers Dreams - Molly Hatchet Individual Choice - Jean Luc Ponty Child of Vision - Supertramp Santa Esmeralda - Esmeralda Suite the list goes on... I have several compilations for driving. Makes me look forward to road trips. |
Ministry - Jesus Built My Hotrod
Best fast-driving song ever. End of arguement. |
bic runga -good morning baby
|
Drum&Bass, Funky House, Trance
|
Anything with Dire Straits, especially when the weather is grey and gloomy.
|
"Ready Steady Go" by Paul Oakenfold. Was in the movie "Collateral" with Jamie Foxx and Tom Cruise. Perfect song for those long windy roads where you push your car to the limit......
|
Breath, and Firestarter, by Prodigy.
Anything with a good beat and a lot of bass. |
"Chicago" off Sufjan Stevens' Illinois works well for the road.

Full Moon Fever- Tom Petty Unbelievably great driving album. |
