Hey everyone! I take my NCLEX on July 27th and am in the process of making a CD for my car that I can dance and sing my heart out to on my 30 or so minute drive to the testing center. This is one of the ways for me to reduce stress before and after the test. :) Anyone have any ideas for good car singing songs? One that I thought of is Natasha Bedingfield's "Unwritten."

ROFL!! This is so funny! :)
Ok, how about Billy Joel's "My Life", or if you're into Country, Confederate Railroad's "She Took It Like A Man" or "Time Off for Bad Behavior".
Anything from Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet album :)
Enjoy!

I'm a lot older than most of you, but I'd suggest "My Future's So Bright, I've Gotta Wear Shades" or "Blinded Me with Science".

LOL.....I've got you beat, but I figured too many '80s songs would date me too badly!

How about Alice Cooper's song....."School's Out for Summer".
There's a line in the song that says "school's out forever!"

OKAY, this may sound a little bazarre but on the way to take my test I brought an Enya Cd to listen too. I calmed me down a lot and I believe lowered my pressure and pulse extremely before I went in to take the test. Anything by her is very relaxing BUT it's not really sing your heart out music. Good luck!

How about "Don't Stop" (Thinking About Tomorrow) by Fleetwood Mac?
IF YOU WAKE UP AND DON’T WANT TO SMILE,
IF IT TAKES JUST A LITTLE WHILE,
OPEN YOUR EYES AND LOOK AT THE DAY,
YOU’LL SEE THINGS IN A DIFFERENT WAY,
DON’T STOP THINKING ABOUT TOMORROW,
DON’T STOP! IT’LL SOON BE HERE,
IT’LL BE BETTER THAN BEFORE,
YESTERDAY’S GONE, YESTERDAY’S GONE!
WHY NOT THINK ABOUT TIMES TO COME,
AND NOT ABOUT THE THINGS THAT YOU’VE DONE,
IF YOUR LIFE WAS BAD TO YOU,
JUST THINK WHAT TOMORROW WILL DO,
ALL I WANT IS TO SEE YOU SMILE,
I KNOW YOU DON’T BELIEVE THAT IT’S TRUE,
I NEVER MEANT ANY HARM TO YOU,
OOH........., DON’T YOU LOOK BACK........., OOH........., DON’T YOU LOOK BACK
