Top 5 Fan Favorite Country Songs For Road Trips
Below are the top songs that were favored by all the country fans who partook in the discussion. As there are just so many songs to choose from, don't treat this like a definitive list. Take it as a chance to revisit some popular tunes you may have forgotten about.
"It's A Great Day To Be Alive"
"It's A Great Day To Be Alive" by Travis Tritt was the top acknowledged song in the discussion. It's not as punchy as I prefer songs on the road to be, but it provides solemn and grateful vibes that go great with the wind.
"Blue Clear Sky"
"Blue Clear Sky" by George Strait is a summertime bop. Again, it's a little more relaxed than I prefer, but it's undeniably a chill song that will complement the road (and the blue sky).
"Old Alabama"
"Old Alabama" by Brad Paisley and Alabama is a brilliant song for a road trip. It's hard not to tap your feet or bop your head to the song.
"Should've Been A Cowboy"
It surprised me to see "Should've Been A Cowboy" by the Big Dog Daddy (Toby Keith) in the discussion. Although it's a great song, it's not one I'd typically associate with barreling down the highway with the windows down. But after listening to it again, I can see why it's here.
"Summer's Comin'"
Out of the five killer hits on this list, this would be my personal favorite. "Summer's Comin'" by Clint Black is the sorta song I go to when out on the road. It's upbeat, fun, and immediately boosts the mood.
