Whenever college students get the rare gift of a long weekend, a road trip is always in order. That extra day gives one a chance to go somewhere fun, new, and different without getting behind. Whether you are just traveling a half an hour up the road or crossing several state lines (like I did this weekend), having the perfect road trip playlist is a non-negotiable.
Worried that you don't have the right tunes to make it all the way there without pulling your hair out? No worries, I've got you covered. Planning the perfect playlist is as easy as can be with the help of my trade secrets.
1. Beach Music/Shag Music
You have to have some good old Motown classics by The Four Tops and The Foundations.
2. Throwback Songs
These are the songs that you can't forget, even when you try really hard to. Mix chill and upbeat songs for the best result.
3. Jams
What makes you get up and dance? Put that on.
4. Podcasts
People hate on podcasts, but they really are a great way to pass the time and get engaged while driving. My personal favorite is "Serial."
You're off to a good start with these ingrediants. Personalize the music to your own taste and you're good to go! Happy travels.
