| 5 Great Late-Night Drive Tracks
Everyone loves a late-night cruise, but the right rmusic takes it to another level. It sets the tone rfor the trip, and nothing's better than that rfeeling you can't quite put your finger on. Here rrare five great songs to turn your car into a rrocketship blasting through the ethos. | | 1 | Creedence Clearwater Revival
Lookin' Out My Back Door
Unlike the others, this track will make you feel something
quite different. Something you can't seem to comprehend. Somewhere
between total bliss and mutual acceptance of sorrow, you'll find yourself
hitting repeat until you can put your finger on it. Fogerty seems to sing of
such complacency that it's hard to say whether he's happy or sad. That
kind of open interpretation is why this song stays in your heart and
makes your late-night drive a revelation of spirituality. | | 2 | Alice In Chains
Down in a Hole
The beauty of the human emotion complex, is that you have the ability to
sympathize. You can feel every painful lament, every frail attempt at
forgiveness and acceptance. Listening to this track while driving alone at
night will alter your understanding of the nature of the human soul and
what it means to be truly desperate for a kindred spirit. | | 3 | Pearl Jam
Tremor Christ
There's something about this song that no one can explain. The melody
was written by fallen angels who possessed Vedder for all we know. It's
unreal, somehow soothing quality instills images of sailors lost at sea,
singing hymns of resilience in the wake of absolute tragedy, and this
feeling is translated through the speakers to you so well, you feel as if
you're hearing a lullaby your mother used to sing to you as a child. It's
familiar, but strange even so. | | 4 | Deftones
Change (In the House of Flies)
Blaring this track through your car's speakers while winding down an
unlit road may spook some, but that sense of fragmentation is a sense of
calm to me. Eerie, catchy and hard enough to bust your speakers, this
track offers a compelling mix of chilling tones and enlivening melodies
that'll surely keep your feet stomping on the floorboard. | | 5 | Tool
The Patient
Whether it be backroads or that empty highway 31, drifting to this track
gets your heart pumping. As it quietly builds into a crescendo of ominous
technicality, you're finding yourself lost in the dizzying, and haunting,
visions of ineptitude and self-doubt echoed through the speakers. Just
keep reminding yourself, keep your eyes on the road. | |

Phlegm, do you not like any of these songs?
The End of the Night, would be great as well. Huge Doors fan. | StormIsComing
04.26.14 | For some reason, there are a lot of "r"s in the intro. No matter how many times I edit, they're still there. Rsorry rfor rthat. | Rowan5215
04.26.14 | Gotye - Night Drive
duh | BlackLlama
04.27.14 | 2 is killer. Rainy night + Dirt and Jar of Flies = a lot of soul searching. |
