If you are looking for a song to drive to with a lot of groove, Sympathy for the Devil is just the ticket. We’ve been lucky enough to see the Rolling Stones in concert three times. Dave even met the band way back in 2003 when he shot a media blitz they did in Toronto. This is by far our favorite Rolling Stones song for aroad trip. Even if we have t...
I didn’t know a lot about Lynyrd Skynyrd until I watched the documentary Muscle Shoals. It’s a music biography about one of the most innovative sound studios of the 60s featuring the Rolling Stones and Lynard Skynyrd. But I have always known the song Sweet Home Alabama, and there is something about this song’s beat that make it the perfect driving ...
One of the best driving songs ever is Little Red Corvette by Prince. Who wouldn’t want to be driving a red corvette through the streets. The song is filled with metaphors, but when I sing it, I just think about driving. It is sad to see another legend lost, but his music lives on. Buy Little Red Corvette $1.29 Pick up a copy ofPrince’s Greatest Hit...
Queen is my ultimate favourite band. Metallica is Dave’s. I could have just said, “buy Queen’s greatest hits and you’ll have the perfect Road Trip playlist”. However, I can only choose one, and if you want a song that picks you up when you’re feeling a little groggy on the road, Another One Bites the Dust does the trick. Man, I love the bass in thi...
While spending a summer in Spain and driving around Costa Bravathis Mark Ronson/Bruno Mars tune was was our go-to road trip song. We called it the song of summer and whenever it came on, we’d jive and jam in the car. Dave and I love to sing during a road trip and this one makes you want to wail at the top of your lungs. “We’re gonna Uptown Funk you...
This roadtrip song by Canada’s Spirit of the West always makes me want to go to London, England, and hang out in the pubs. I think about all the travels we have done, and when we do come home, we really do need a rest. Travelis exhausting and when you add pub crawling to the mix, it is doubly exhausting. Spirit of the West captured the spirit of tr...
How does one choose a favourite Red Hot Chili Pepper’s song? They have so many great albums. But Californication is the perfect tune for a road trip. Heck, even the video is all about driving. I used to say, “How can anyone not name Red Hot Chili Peppers as one of the greatest bands of all time?” I mean, everything is perfection. Anthony Kiedis is ...
There’s nothing really amazing musically about this song by the ScottishBand, the Proclaimers, but when it comes to road trip music, it has the perfect beat. When comes up on the playlist, everyone stops to sing along. This song was made to be a song to drive to! It’s one of those songs that you can’t help but love. Even if you hate it! I’m Gonna B...
Remember when Elaine’s boyfriend refused to speak to anyone when Desperado came on the radio during a classic Seinfeld episode? When it comes to the Eagles,Hotel California is our song. But when it comes to road trip songs by The Eagles,Take it Easy is Number one. See a great California Road Trip at17 Mile Drive in Monterey “Well I’m a runnin’ down...
I bet you didn’t know that Jackson Browne played a huge role in making the Eagles famous. He was roommates with Glen Frey and Don Henley at one point. Heck, for the longest time when I was a kid, I thought Running on Empty was performed by the Eagles. They have similar sounds because Jackson Browne actually co-wrote a lot of the Eagles songs. How d...

- "Gimme Shelter" (1969) It takes just the opening notes of "Gimme Shelter" to be transported to another time in American history. Off the 1969 album Let It Bleed, the soothing-yet-haunting harmonies and crescendoing riffs build tension to later relinquish it.
- "Jumpin' Jack Flash" (1968) Of all the greatest songs in music, few open with a line as defining as Jagger's drawling assertion: "I was born in a crossfire hurricane."
- "Paint It, Black" (1966) The 1966 U.S. release of the Rolling Stones' Aftermath starts off with a pounding rhythm and beautiful — yet decidedly menacing and anxiety-inducing — guitar picking that confused music fans as much as it enticed them.
- "Wild Horses" (1971) Recorded at Alabama's Muscle Shoals studio at the close of the '60s, "Wild Horses" is made of the magic only found in the most vulnerable moments of a raucous rockstar's subdued reflection.
