Driving can be either fun or a chore, depending on your philosophical bend. That’s why they invented the radio! Is there anything more freeing than singing along to your favorite songs while driving down the highway? That joy you get when a song you like comes on? Precisely.

So, what are the best driving songs ever? Surely any song by The Eagles? Or America? Or that uplifting one by one-hit-wonder Norman Greenbaum? What are the best songs to sing along to when you’re driving? What’s the one song that just feels… right to rock out to?

From classic guitar riffs, to eerie keyboards, to great choruses, we got ’em all here! And remember, this is in no particular order and it is completely subjective.

Here we go!

2, 4, 6, 8 Motorway by Tom Robinson Band — We kick off our list with one of the greatest choruses of any UK hit from the 70s. And appropriately it’s got ‘motorway’ in the title. And ‘me and my radio trucking on through the night’ is one of the best lines ever.

Take It Easy by The Eagles — I mean, ANYTHING by The Eagles could easily be on…
