If you’re planning any long trips home or just looking for some good music to rock out to on your way to class, be sure to check out these songs: 1. “Fight Song” by Rachel Platten I love listening to this song in the car, because it’s the perfect song for motivation. The empowering lyrics, “This is my fight song. Take back my life song, prove I’m alright song,” make it a very upbeat and fun sing along song that you can sing whenever you need motivation or just want to jam with your friends. 2. “Hello” by Adele This song may not be as upbeat as “Fight Song,” but it’s the perfect song to sing along to.

3. “Same Old Love” by Selena Gomez This song is one of my favorites right now because of its unique tempo and rhythm. Its catchy melody and easy to understand words make it a good song to listen to in the car. It’s also a completely different feel for Selena Gomez, who I remember from the Disney Channel.
