20 Songs You Should Add To Your Road Trip Playlist

As a lover of both music and driving, I never drive without music playing. If you don't listen to music while driving, you're doing it wrong. For a road trip, whether it be an hour, or five hours, a playlist is a necessity. If you add any of these songs to your road trip playlist, trust me, you won't regret it.

1. Fumes- Eden

Best for everyday driving, and of course for road trips. When the beat drops, its almost infectious.

2. Fantasy- Alina Baraz

My go to song if I'm traveling to the beach. Looking for a more upbeat version? Check out The Felix Jaehn Remix.

Favorite lyric: So you say you wanna get away, We don't need a plane.

3. Cigarette Daydreams

One of my all time favorites.

Favorite lyric: You can drive all night, Looking for answers in the pouring rain.

4. Pink Skies- LANY

This song was made for road trips.

Favorite lyric: Get ya under pink skies, I know exactly where we should go.

5. Alive- Empire of the Sun

Roll your windows down, turn this song on. There's no doubt you'll feel alive.

Favorite lyric: Loving every minute cause you make me feel so alive.

6. Drive- Halsey

I had to include this one, and not just because of the pun.

Favorite lyric: All we do is drive, All we do is think about the feelings that we hide.

7. Life Itself- Glass Animals

Great band, great song.

8. Robbers- The 1975

As one of all time favorite bands, I had to include The 1975 in this list. This song gives off the perfect summer, road trip vibe.

Favorite lyric: I'll give you one more time, We'll give you one more fight.

9. Warm Thoughts- Flume

I first listened to this song while driving, and there's no going back.

10. Cherry Hill- Russ

A beat that is perfect for driving with the top down.

11. Spirits- The Strumbellas

I been looking at the stars tonight, And I think oh, how I miss that bright sun.

12. Midnight City- M83

A recent discovery of mine, but an all-around great song to listen to while driving. If you've never heard of it, you probably recognize its beat.

13. Green Light- Lorde

That's right, I wasn't stopping at one pun.

Favorite lyric: I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it.

14. Chasing Colors- Marshmello

An upbeat, EDM song perfect for a summer drive.

Favorite lyric: We're dreaming on and on, we're dreaming on and on, We got the windows down, we got the windows down.

15. First Time- Kygo

Another great upbeat song for a drive.

Favorite lyric: Speeding for the finish line, Come until the end of our time, yeah.

16. Look Alive- Rae Sremmurd

Definitely a different vibe than the songs above, but still a necessity for a long drive.

Favorite lyric: Kill this cup, not my vibe.

17. Malibu- Miley Cyrus

A slower-paced song perfect to sing along to on your next road trip.

Favorite lyric: But here I am, next to you ,The sky's more blue in Malibu.

18. Riptide- Vance Joy

Because something about this song makes me want to go on a drive.

19. Paris- The Chainsmokers

Of course I had to include a song by The Chainsmokers. All of their songs make for a fun drive, but this one has got to be my favorite.

20. Can't Feel My Face- The Weeknd (Martin Garrix Remix)

Such a fun, pump up remix that will make you want to dance in your seat.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
