5 Best Songs To Listen To On A Car Ride With Your Dad

In This Article:

This week I decided to come home from college for a few days, and it has already been so relaxing for the 12 hours I've been home. My dad came to pick me up last night and we didn't get home until about 10pm, which is fairly late. During the car ride home, I always like to play to music. Music always helps to pass the time, fill some awkward silence, and helps to keep you entertained during the ride. Here are some of my favorite songs to play on a long car ride.

The Spins by Mac Miller

This song is such a jam! Especially since I was driving home to Pittsburgh, it only felt right to play some Mac Miller on the way home. This song is so upbeat, and just radiates good vibes, its the perfect pump up song to drive to!

Come On Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners

Come On Eileen is one of my go-to songs currently. I have always wanted to create the school dance scene in Perks Of Being A Wallflower to this song, it looks like it was so much fun to dance to. This song is catchy, upbeat, and an easy sing along song for anyone!

Rock the Casbah by The Clash

This is one of my dad's favorite songs of all time. He always talks about it, and he was so happy I put it on last night! He sang almost every word (which doesn't happen too much), and it was such a fun song to listen to!

You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) by Dead Or Alive

As soon as this song came up, my dad almost immediately turned up the volume, he was so excited. The 80's had a lot of very odd and experimental music, and this song is exactly that. It feels like its all over the place, but in the best way possible!

Talk by Khalid

Khalid is such a soothing artist to listen to, I usually listen to him while I'm studying, but when I'm in the car with my dad, I always make sure to play at least one song by him. The beats are calming but still upbeat, and all of his songs just radiate good vibes.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
