Obviously I don't mean when I'm driving (I'm 15 by the way) but when my mum's driving and we're listening to whatever music is on!
10. Kids by MGMT - ok so after the first couple of minutes, the lyrics seem to go exactly the same and I get bored but the tune and the opening are so awesome I just listen to the start again and again and again until my mum insists we change the song. It's a great, upbeat tune and you'll be humming the opening literally at THE MOST random points of the day (like when you're in a queue at the supermarket!).
9. Just Can't Get Enough by The Saturdays - this song is played so often on the radio that i think every teenager in the UK at least has to know it. The perfect song to play when zooming down a road in a convertible (I wish).
8. Ruby by Kaiser Chiefs - I remember this song coming out and my mum singing it constantly which seriously embarrassed me at the time but now I think she's actually pretty cool! Whenever this song comes on, the two us sing with the volume on full, so to me it's a great song to zoom down the motorway on.
7. So What by P!nk - fab, girly-rock song! THE song I sing with my best friends at school or on the bus! Upbeat and unusually uplifting!
6. The Theme to St. Trinians by Girls Aloud - this film came out over 3 years ago (wow, that makes me feel old!) and if you haven't seen it, is it one of the funniest, feel-good films I have ever seen! This song is one of those that you can scream from the rooftops and not die of embassment because everyone else joins in with you!
5. Sherry Darling by Bruce Springsteen - my parents used to play Springsteen constantly when I was younger (or at least in my memories they did) and I love driving along singing his music. I like his modern slow stuff but I think it's his older stuff which is perfect for a long car journey in summer, especially the awesome chorus of this song!
4. Shut up and Drive by Rihanna - just great girly pop. Something to dance to that keeps you going!
3. Sit Down by James - this is a fairly old song (well, 1989 so not that old but it's older than me) but I love it! It's one of those songs that you can almost instantaneously pick up the chorus of and then sing along to all the time. The perfect song for a road trip!
2. There She Goes by The La's - ok, god knows how many times I have put this song down but it really does fit most categories. Whenever it's a sunny day though and I'm driving along a country road and this song comes on, it just finishes the scene off perfectly, so that it's practically a movie moment!
1. Headlong by Queen - awesomely, increibly fantabulous rock song... what more can I say! The We Will Rock You version is also incredibly awesome!

Top 10 summer songs
I was bored of getting sun-burnt and so decided to make a list of the songs that sum up summer the best. So here is my list of the top 10 summer songs:
1.Summer of '69 by Bryan Adams - how could I not include this!?
2. Boys in the Summer by Jessie James - not Jessie J but Jessie James the American country singer. I don't generally like country music but this song had me dancing crazily round the room (not something I do often, by the way).
3. Perfect Day by Hoku - so not necessarily a summer song but I always see the film Legally Blonde and the lyrics are so uplifting despite it being cheesy pop
4. Somewhere in my Heart by Aztec Camera - possibly THE most catchy song with such an epic guitar solo that can't help but bring a smile to your face. Amy MacDonald did a cover of it in 2005 which is also incredible.
5. Our Song by Taylor Swift - ok it might to be cheesy pop but it epitomises the hope of a summer romance and is seriously catchy
6. Thunder by Boys like Girls - the first slow song but an epic rock ballad that embodies the end of the summer and the end of romance. The Great Escape is also a great summer song but there's something so beautifully melancholic and poignant about Thunder
7. Don't Marry Her by The Beautiful South - not really a summer song but the light-hearted beat and tune makes me wish I was driving to the beach instead of school whenever I hear it
8. Long Hot Summer by Girls Aloud - great girly pop
9. Is this the way to Amarillo? by Tony Christie - it may not be a traditional summer song but I always see it as one or an end of school year one! It's the best song to get everyone on their feet and singing along. Can't help but smile!
10. Hotel California by The Eagles - classic summer song
1.Summer of '69 by Bryan Adams - how could I not include this!?
