This weekend my partner and I are heading to Castellane for 2 days camping, kayaking and outdoor activities. I like traveling – whether I am the driver or the passenger, getting to the destination can be as enjoyable as arriving at the destination.
As we will not be traveling with our son (thanks to his grandmother babysitting him while we are away), our music tastes for the journey will be extended beyond child-friendly CD’s and catchy songs involving ‘A, B, C’s’ or ‘Name that animal’. Here is my playlist compilation of road trip songs that I like for various reasons (in no particular order):
- You and Me song – The Wannadies
- Scar tissue – Red Hot Chili Peppers
- Canned heat – Jamiroquai
- Just like heaven – The Cure
- Get a move on – Mr Scruff
- Your Song – Elton John
- Free fallin’ – Tom Petty
- Here’s where the story ends – The Sundays
- Superstylin’ – Groove Armada
- Arizona – Kings of Leon
- Sunshine – P. Digss and Drumagick
- Luna – Smashing Pumpkins
- Born slippy – Underworld
- Every day is a winding road – Sheryl Crow
- So true – The Black Seeds
- Starlight – Muse
- Last request – Paolo Nutini
- Dakota – Stereophonics
- Love is a losing game – Amy Winehouse
- Brazilian hipster – Fort Knox Five
- You’ve got the love – Florence and the Machine
I would love to hear from anyone what you would include on your road trip playlist!
Happy traveling!
