Nothing says summer and fun times like a good old-fashioned road trip. If you're doing life right, you know that the best part of a road trip is the playlist. Just kidding -- it's the snacks. But let's focus on the music.



The perfect playlist can help you appreciate the beauty of a scenic road or make you forget you're driving through a wasteland. You won't even have time to wonder if you're there yet because you'll be trying to sing, dance, and play air guitar between mouthfuls of snacks -- all while seated. (P.S. you sound like a mess. A beautiful mess.)



Because we love you, we've assembled the ultimate road trip movie soundtrack, comprised of the 29 best songs from movie soundtracks. Warning: you will "Lose Yourself" in this list. And no, "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" that we've started the music puns.



So pop open a bag of Bugles, get that car seat in a comfortable position, and prepare your ears for the sweet, sweet sounds of this musical treat we've whipped up for you. Singing along is mandatory.
