15 Songs We Listened To While Dramatically Staring Out Of Windows

By Moojan |

What's a road trip without a good playlist?

Most people say the most enjoyable thing about car rides is listening to awesome music. Sometimes we listened to dance tracks and sang along with our friends or siblings, but other times, especially if it was raining, we'd play emotional music and dramatically look out the window daydreaming.

Here are 15 songs we listened to as we emotionally looked out the window. Most of these tracks are from the late '90s or early 2000s.

1. "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey

Did you also imagine your whole life playing out perfectly with this song?

2. "Breakaway" by Kelly Clarkson

"I just stare out my window." It's even in the lyrics.  

3. "Lucky" by Britney Spears

It's nice to look at the window and feel like Britney.

4. "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion

You'd look out your window mournfully and think about Jack's untimely death, I know. It's sad.

5. "Wonderwall" by Oasis

This song is just perfect 'looking out your window dramatically' material.

6. "When A Man Loves A Woman" by Michael Bolton

Even if you don't love somebody, this song makes you feel ways.

7. "My Immortal" by Evanescence

Every Evanescence song should be on this list, but this one is probably the most popular.

Keep going, these next ones will make you want to rest your head on the window ledge too.

8. "The Reason" by Hoobastank

"I'm not a perfect personnnnnnnn."

9. "Helena" by My Chemical Romance

We all had that one rage song.

10. "Truly Madly Deeply" by Savage Garden

What better song to listen to when you're madly in love but that significant other doesn't even know you exist.

11. "From This Moment On" by Shania Twain

More like, from the moment you looked out the window.

12. "Adam's Song" by Blink-182

This was everyone's go-to song when it was raining. Just crank up that slow melody and singalong to those depressing lyrics.

13. "Perfect" by Hedley

The chorus is very 'look out your window' worthy.

14. "I'm With You" by Avril Lavigne

This song will make you feel lost, even if you don't feel it.

15. "Wonderful" by Everclear

Pretty deep stuff.

Remembering NFL in the 90's

By Jordan N
NFL in the 90s. The Golden Years of FootballIf you can cast your mind back to what the NFL was like in the 90’s, you can perhaps remember some of the great teams and players of the time, not to mention some of the important milestones as well. Maybe you remember the Dallas Cowboys winning three Super Bowls in four years or when the Denver Broncos won a perfect season in 1998. Of course, there are plenty of memorable player moments too. Like when Dan Marino won the title of the best all-time passing leader. Or when Jerry Rice

Brace Yourself: The Backstreet Boys Released A New Song And Are Going On A World Tour

By Tanya
The Backstreet Boys have been one of the biggest bands in the country, well, the world for several decades now. After getting their start in the early 90s, they've managed to be one of the very few bands that has stuck together and continued performing. They didn't need a big reunion, because they didn't break up. Well, let's just pretend like that whole Kevin fiasco didn't happen. But anyways, they've been putting out music and performing together for 25 years now, and they have no intention of stopping. To be fair, they did warn of this two decades ago. They

Lip Smacker's New Christmas Collection Brings Back Your 90s Favorites. All Of Them.

By Tanya
If there was one product that you had to pick that would best represent what it was like to be a preteen in the 90s, I think a lot of us girls would agree that Lip Smackers would be the best choice. These little tubes of oftentimes glittered, scented, colorful lip-balm made us all feel like the fanciest of ladies, totally ready to grab our purses and do whatever it is that our moms did when they weren't paying attention to us. You had so many different choices too. You'd have a classic berry scented red Lip Smacker, you'd have

Top 3 Gambling Movies Of The Noughties

The 2000s was a huge decade in terms of world events, cultural breakthroughs and the steady advance of technology. In music it was the decade that Beyoncé broke through, making Crazy In Love arguably the defining song of her career. On TV The Office changed the face of comedy forever, going on to reach even greater heights than its UK debut when it underwent a US transformation and introduced Dunder Mifflin to the world. It was also the decade that saw the very first iPod launched, changing forever the way that we buy and listen to music.It was also

Mike Meyers Shared An Update About 'Austin Powers 4' And It's Totally "Groovy, Baby"

By Tanya
When you think of the ultimate man of mystery, who do you think of? James Bond? No of course not. Ethan Hunt? Nope, not even close. The obvious answer is Austin Powers. When Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery came out back in 1997, it felt almost like there was a shift in the world. Suddenly, this ridiculous comedy became all anyone could talk about. It was unexpected, but you know what, it was worth it because the movie was awesome. Making references and jokes to the movie became common place, and you couldn't really ever say the words "one

All of us who would consider ourselves to be 80s and 90s kids aren't really that old, right? We are still in the prime of our lives, and a lot of us still feel like we're just getting started on our path to being a "real grown-up." Maybe it's not the greatest that a lot of us still feel young, but times have changed since our parents were in their 30s. We've learned how to chill out and take our time in our lives. There's no rush, so let's all just relax and try to stay young longer.Here's the
