With Spring Break coming up this is just what you need to start getting prepared. Road trips can be boring and painstakingly long, but with a fire playlist it is guaranteed to make your road trips more bearable. Here are some songs to get you started.
1) Heads Carolina, Tails California by Jo Dee Messina
This song will get you excited for wherever you are going and it is also a great sing along song. It is a little bit of a country throw back but such a fun one. If your friends don't know it, make them learn it or get new friends.
2) Sunny and 75 by Joe Nichols
If you're headed to somewhere warm, or sunny and 75, this song will be perfect and have you feeling like you are already on the beach. Joe Nichols has a few light hearted upbeat songs that would be a great to sing along to. If you like this one, try "Yeah" by him also.
3) Doses and Mimosas by Cherub
If you've never heard this song, just trust me. You are not allowed to skip over it before the chorus hits because that is the best part. Literally such a freaking hype song and click on the link for the lyric video because the words can be hard to understand at first. Pro tip: all the cool kids have their hand on the ceiling and when the chorus hits, you bang on it. Don't ask, it is just a thing. True banger.
4) Stacy's Mom by Fountains of Wayne
Basically everyone and their dog knows this song. Perfect for everyone to sing and enjoy in the car. It is just a song that needs to be played.
5) Don't Stop Believing by Journey
Again, another straight banger that everyone can jam to. I know incredible. Who doesn't like to air guitar and try to hit ridiculously high notes, it a car ride classic that should never be forgotten. Sing you heart out. Journey also has plenty of other bops that would be great to add but this one is most everyone will know.
6) Young Wild Free by Wiz Khalifa ft. Snoop Dog
Even if you aren't all three, young, wild, and free, this song will make everyone feel their most youthful and badass self. Not many will most likely know the rap part, some may, but the chorus is where everyone can shine. Get your car pumped up for a crazy spring break week.
7) Right Now (Na na na) by Akon
A nice switch up of vibes but still a more upbeat fun song to sing along to. It may seem like a sadder song but the beat doesn't make it feel that way. This is a little bit of a throwback so if your friends don't know it, make them learn to love it.
8) Memories by Maroon 5
Newer songs are nice to mix it up and this is a more chill song that is good to integrate with your sing along bangers. This song will make you want to never forget the good time you have and make the most of your time wherever you may be.
9) Good As Hell by Lizzo
No matter the state of your road trip, or how many hours you've been in the car, Lizzo is here to make you feel good as hell. This song is guaranteed to get your group fire up and feelin' themselves.
10) Closer by The Chainsmokers
May no one ever forget this song and the million and a half time we have already heard it. It is just a such a good one to sing and bob your head too. It a great road trip song and it will also be a hit whenever you get to your destination. I bet when you play this song multiple people will say something like "oh shitttt I forgot this song was a thing" and then they will thank you for you dope DJ skills.
