Great road trips are all about the scenery – and the company. But the music you listen is a major factor, too – and a study commissioned by TomTom has found that one in eight people (13%) think that a successful road trip comes down to getting the trip’s tunes right. Its own playlist starts with Michael Jackson’s Beat It – a favourite among the 5,000 people it surveyed.

We’d love to hear about your musical choices for long road trips, whatever the genre. Your favourites may make it on to our Guardian Travel road trip playlist.
