Default Your favorite music for driving

If there are any two things I like doing the most, its listening to music, and driving. They also go hand in hand. So for those of you who drive, what are your favorite beats to have playing while you drive?

Here's my mix:

"Sad But True" and "Master of Puppets" by Metallica
"Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd
"Rear View Mirror" by Pearl Jam
"Shakin'" by Eddie Money
"Smoke On The Water" by Deep Purple
"House of the Rising Sun" by The Animals
"Sometimes A Fantasy" by Billy Joel
"I Wear My Sunglasses At Night" by Corey Hart
"Everybody Wants To Rule The World" by Tears For Fears
"Road Trippin" by Red Hot Chili Peppers
"Bigmouth Strikes Again" by The Smiths
"Photograph" by Def Leppard
"Machinehead" by Bush
"Headstrong" by Trapt
"Plowed" by Sponge

I also like to listen to the classical music station when I'm driving. Especially when I'm driving at night. Don't ask why. I just do.

Well, in the morning when I need to wake up, I like anything by The Offspring or AC/DC or The Misfits or Slayer.

In the afternoon, I'm pretty much wide awake and ready for anything, ranging from Tool to Fantomas to Pink Floyd to Faith No More.

At night, I like to listen to Radiohead, Sigur Ros, Queensryche, and other more spaced out bands.

Rush is a favorite too.

House of the Rising Sun...very nice

Free Bird is great, of course
Somtimes I like listening to early-mid 90's rap

but mostly classic rock...especially partial to guitar solos

Nothing like bobbing your head to some good reggae while cruisin'.

I really like the peaceful drive, so I rock out anything from Matthew Good Band to Neutral Milk Hotel.

Classical, or Jazz.

I'm unconventional. I like a good Canon or Woodchopper's Ball.

On long drives I like to listen to stuff that I can sing along to, like:
Matchbox 20
Counting Crows
Supertones
12 Stones
Chevelle
Greenwheel
Blindside
AFI

Just driving around town, driving short distances, etc I like to listen to pretty much anything in my (or jeepnut's collection) which includes metal,rock, classic rock, and some alternative.

Led Zeppelin seems to be the band I listen to the most when I'm driving. It's usually more heavy stuff, so I only listen to the later albums of the Beatles and some songs of The Who as well. I guess I do listen to some classic rock music that's not as heavy, in the car, such as ELO, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, The Doors, but not as much as Led Zeppelin. If there is one song that's GREAT for the car, it's Spirit in the Sky by Norman Greenbaum.
