I was having this discussion with a friend of mine, and just found it to be an interesting topic of conversation since we spent a while going back and forth on our own ideas of what makes a good driving song.

Ultimately, I'd have to give the nod to "Go With The Flow" by QOTSA as the best driving song I've ever heard. Everything about the song makes it just feel right to listen to while I'm driving.

Going Up The Country by Canned Heat

Phaze-Two

I don't think I have seen anyone else on this forum know who Canned Heat was before. Pretty good tune.

Radar Love by Golden Earring is another killer crusing tune.

Well, if your driving on the interstate, then this song should fit it perfectly, given how dangerous driving on the interstate is and how many people have been killed from pulling over to the side of the interstate and get hit by a Cargo truck or get in a high-speed car accident and get killed....... so driving on the interstate is just like Knocking On Heavens Door Or, in some cases, its like being on the Highway To Hell But, sometimes its simply The Long Road , because after all, if your traveling..... it is a very long road. The same goes for life.

The Planet Caravan cover from Pantera is great for when driving scenic routes.

And Floating The Ionosphere from Turbid North is also great for open road driving.

Air on the G string, Ave Maria and the entirety of Mozart's Requiem. and...Mass Destruction. Subjectively Can't Stop and Under the Bridge by RHCP. The others are not subjective.

If you've seen the movie Drive, then Nightcall - Kavinsky. Or A Real Hero - Collegeand the movie-inspired The Best Thing - Electric Youth. These tracks just fit the whole headlights on the asphalt thing.

I'm heading to Seattle on a roadtrip with my friends at the end of the month, and I made a promise to them at least once we're going to play some of these songs on the drive there or back :P
