5 Songs for your Commute to Work in Door County Traffic

1. Grace Potter and the Nocturnals – “Paris (Ooh La La)”
This sexy, fun and funky song has a groovy beat that will keep your foot tapping while stuck in traffic. Her lyrics, “If I was a man I’d make my move, if I was a blade I’d shave you smooth, if I was a judge I’d break the law,” are provocative and totally rockin’.

2. Cage the Elephant – “In One Ear”

Totally cathartic for mounting annoyance at people who don’t use turn signals. Hip and catchy, you’ll be singing it as you punch your time card.

3. Arctic Monkeys – “Reckless Serenade”

From Sheffield, England, Alex Turner’s witty lyrics and poppy songs will keep the punch in the music and not in an offending minivan’s face.

4. Wild Flag – “Romance”
These ladies know how to rock. You can hear the energy coming out of the speakers, the burst of sound and fever on the guitar solos almost makes you want the commute to be a little longer, so you can listen again.

5. Michael Franti & Spearhead – “The Sound of Sunshine”
I dare you to listen to this song and tell me it doesn’t make you feel happier. This is the song of the summer for every Door County working person. Don’t let your dancing feet carry you away from the gas pedal. There’s a real danger of playing hooky after listening to Franti’s sunshine.
