Driving in a car can be pretty fun, especially when you have music to listen and sing along to. Although, listening to the radio can get boring from time to time.
Having a music app like Spotify or even making a CD to play in your car could help you come up with new songs to listen to on a road trip without the constant 5 songs playing in a row. When it comes to coming up with good road trip music, always look towards the classics.
Everything from the 70's through the early 20's; feel good songs that will bring you back to the days of your childhood. Here is a list of a few songs that could liven up any road trip playlist.
