Love to listen to this (and many other RD, Kishor and Gulzar masterpieces) while I'm on the road.

YouTube - Raah pe rahte hain-Namkeen

Every time I hear "Lukka Chuppi" from Rang De Basanti, tears swell up in my eyes. I've tried listening to this song on various days when I am in different moods, but this happens every time !!!

On a long ride getting back home, nothing gets me going more than Saxon's "Ride like the wind".

"...and i've got such a long way to go, to reach the border of mexico, so i ride, ride like the wind"

These days been listening to a lot of Uriah Heep, Blackfoot, Old Skool Megadeth/Metallica

Basharatu · 11th January 2011, 11:05

Rahat Fateh Ali's:- Teray Must Must do nain & Tun na Janay Aas Pass hey Khuda!

My all time favourite is the old classic from Hum Dono "Main Zindagi ka saath nibhata chala gaya"
Dev Anand is simply outstanding as a young Army officer.
I keep humming this every now and then.Life is well described in this song

1) Back to black - Amy winehouse

Awesome

Just remembered my college days, this song was the favorite pick when it came to a romantic setting. I even remember, we used this song extensively amongst others in class while helping a friend to vow his present day wife

Thanks for sharing it man.

All these days I didn't have a specific song for long drives, but now that I drive long distance on a regular basis, I have found my favourite. Not just one, but many many songs from Norah Jones. I keep on playing her albums all the way.

YouTube - Norah Jones - Don't Know Why

YouTube - norah jones - come away with me lyrics

YouTube - Norah Jones - Feeling The Same Way

jalex77 · 21st January 2011, 20:44

I guess this is what is best to be played in car with the scenario we have on the traffic situation in Kerala.

YouTube - Mexican Mariachi Music

Works best when you see a City Bus driver playing the Mexican hat dance with his bus.
