"Select a Song" Road-Trip Game



Road-trip sunset sights from the car

Road-tripping across the country, you have to face several long stretches across the most boring highways you can imagine. Determined not to let the big obstacle (AKA the drive across the Arkansas plains) bring us down, I created a game for us to burn up a few hours.


We created a long list of music prompts, and before the trip, we had to find a song that matched each. During the drive, we took turns queuing up the songs we selected. Not only was this entertaining, but it was cool to see which categories we chose the same song and which selections led to unearthing old memories.


Here is the list of music prompts we created we created:


  • Song You Got From a Parent

  • From a Sibling

  • From the 50's

  • From the 60's

  • From the 70's

  • From the 80's

  • From the 90's

  • From the 00's

  • From the 10's

  • Old School Disney

  • New School Disney

  • From a James Bond Movie

  • From Elementry School

  • From Middle School

  • From High School

  • From College/Post High School

  • When It's Raining

  • International

  • Only Instrumental

  • Name Has to Include a Color

  • Name Has to Include a Season

  • Name Has to Include a Year

  • From a Musical

  • Guilty Pleasure

  • Psychedelic

  • Classic Rock

  • I Should Be/I Am Crying

  • On the Beach

  • Pregame Starter

  • After Party Closer

  • About an Animal

  • From a Movie Soundtrack

  • Unnecessarily Granola (Indie)

  • Comedy

  • "This Remix Shouldn't Have Been Made"

  • "I'm Ordering a Martini"

  • From an Artist From the 27 Club

  • Boy Band

  • Feeling Myself

  • I'm Going to Win You Over (Boombox Under the Window Vibes)

  • Your Life's Final Credits


Long list - I know (and that's with cutting some of the holiday and gross couple's content), but hey, it's a great way to kill several hours and we had a ton of fun.
