Inspired by Adrian's thread, obviously. When I'm driving, I like mellow music. Keeps me from getting all aggro'd by the bad drivers.
Let's put forward some examples of good chilled-out driving songs. I can always use some more! Here's some of my standards for driving:
American Analog Set, Hard to Find
Folk Implosion, Natural One
Morcheeba, Trigger Hippie
That's a starter set ...
Cardigans, some is rocky, but must is like this;

these guys are great as well

For me.. it would be Led Zepplin(What Is And Should Never Be), ZZ Top(Sharp Dressed Man), The Eagles(Life in the Fast Lane), AC/DC(Highway to Hell:laugh4: )
Just to name a few bands and songs.
Well, I usually prefer more up tempo stuff for driving, but then I think I like getting aggro on the road. ~DQuote:

Oh no! There goes...
When 'chilling' 'out', suitable ones on my iPod right now (which is hooked up to my speakers) are Boards of Canada, Nick Drake, David Byrne (Young Adam cd), Eels (Blinking Lights), Boduf Songs, Sigur Ros, Bonnie Prince Billy, Nico, The Notwist, Quiet Sun, Maps, Les Négresses Verts.
I can't believe nobody has mentioned Pink Floyd. You cant talk about mellowing out without mentioning the Floyd.
I love the Bee Gee's, Eagles (Hotel California), ABBA among some. It sends me to sleep, and its good when travelling to work on a busy day.
Anything Floyd or Portishead, particularly Dummy.
Dummy is a great album. Here's a live track from it.
Can't talk about chilling music without mentioning Massive Attack as well. Their song Angel always slays me. When that guitar comes in out of nowhere ... man. Teardrop is an amazing song as well.
By chilling out, I assume keeping calm?
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole
Hawai'ian singer (massive dude), great songs including 'Wonderful World'.
My brother is a big fan of his. And yeah, his Over the Rainbow/Wonderful World mashup is one for the ages.
Creedence.
Tiger lillies. :clown:
Well, if it is chillin then it is Morcheeba. "Fregments of Freedom" and well "Big Calm". ~;)
or this guy, IMO no one can beat him, I listen his music each and every day:

Anything by Mazzy Star.
Otis Redding.:yes:
My favorite on this album is "All I need", great chillout music.
