Music has been a constant companion on my globetrotting adventures. This post is an attempt to create a playlist of the 10 Best Songs for a Road Trip.The list is clearly subjective, but I used objective parameters to narrow the choice of songs. First, the song must be catchy. It is important on road trips to fight off fatigue by cranking the stereo and singing along. Second, the song must well known. Nothing is worse than being stuck in a car listening to the obscure songs of somebody else's favorite band. Finally, the songmust encourage an adventurous spirit.
