Hidden In Plain View - Innocent Ones

The bridge of this song is a drawn out instrumental and it makes cruising around feel pretty good

Don't know who that band is, but LOL.

I haven't decided exactly what makes for good driving music except for (sometimes) lyrics about the road, cars, driving, etc. I think it's driving guitars and an upbeat tempo for the most part, though. So, here you go.

The first song I think of is The Distance by Cake.

Foo Fighters - Learn to Fly
Bachman Turner Overdrive - Takin' Care of Business
Bachman Turner Overdrive - You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet
Limbeck - Honk and Wave
The Eagles - Life in the Fast Lane
The Eagles - Take It Easy
Metallica - Enter the Sandman
The Cardigans - My Favorite Game (stolen from GT2 soundtrack)
Stone Temple Pilots - Sex Type Thing (stolen from GT2 soundtrack)
Steppenwolf - Magic Carpet Ride
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Sikimanico (stolen from Wayne's World soundtrack)
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Runnin' Down a Dream
Rhino Bucket - Ride With Yourself (stolen from Wayne's World soundtrack)
Jimmy Eat World - Futures
Boston - More Than a Feeling
Tom Cochrane - Life is a Highway
AC/DC - Highway to Hell
Eve 6 - Open Road Song

Not saying all of these songs go together, but I think they'd all be good to drive to.

Anything New Found Glory is perfect for driving. Also, Silverstein, Anberlin, Senses Fail, and Lucky Boys Confusion.

Brand New is not good for driving at all.

I definitely agree with YFW. Especially Jude Law, Sudden Death, Shower Scene and 70x7. After that though, their albums are much better to listen to at home with headphones.

The last one I made was a little all over the place, but I didn't want to fall asleep.

Fake Problems - Songs For Teenagers
Nada Surf - Blankest Year
Bayside - Duality
Brand New - Failure By Design
Set Your Goals - to be continued
Polar Bear Club - Living Saints
Brighten - Swing

There were more, but those are probably my favorites to listen to in the car.
