Best Driving Songs

You take the last corner coming home from a long day at work. Tired and grumpy, all you want to do is toss yourself on the couch and watch what ever is on the tv. Eagerly awaiting that moment, a certain song starts flowing through the speakers, and you forget that you were tired. Forget that you were grumpy. You start to nod your head to the beat, and instead of braking to turn into your driveway, you cruise right on by it. Just a lap around the block...

From the highway to the back country roads, these songs make the driving experience ultimately better. Most of them bring out the lead foot in me, which isn't saying much... but they're great to cruise to. Here goes-



Don't Stop Me Now- Queen.
Radar Love- Golden Earring
Fuel-Metallica
Wheels of Fire- Manowar
Panama- Van Halen
Kickstart my Heart- Motley Crue
Animals- Nickleback
Joker and the Thief- Wolfmother
No One Like You- Scorpions (just a great tune)
Du Hast- Rammstein
Life is a Highway- Rascal Flats (ok, not my type of music.. but nonetheless, a sweet song)
I Want to Break Free- Queen
No Easy Way Out- Survivor (If you've seen Rocky IV, you'll get this)
Turn the Page- Metallica OR Bob Seger
Wheel in the Sky- Journey
Life in the Fast Lane- Eagles
Sultans of Swing- Dire Straits
Up Around the Bend- Credence Clearwater Revival
The Boys of Summer- Don Henley
Heavy Artillery- Classified
96 Quite Bitter Beings- CKY
Smokin'- Boston


Feel free to add some... I know there's so many more than this, but here's a start!
