Singer Amaal Mallik gives you his personal carpool karaoke playlist

Five singalong songs to keep you entertained when stuck in traffic

1. Aaj Kal Tere Mere Pyar Ke Charche (Brahmachari,1968)

Five songs to bob your head along to in the car

A classic Mohammed Rafi composition that stole our hearts. The groove of this song is something that’ll get the singers going. It’s a song everybody bobs their head to.

2. Dil Se Re (Dil Se..,1998)

This is a song that everyone knows by heart! There’s no one who doesn’t know this track by heart. The feel is enjoyable and the chorus sounds great when sung in unison. It’s a song that everybody will love.

3. O Sanam (Sunoh,1996)

The simplicity of this song is lovely. Again, it’s a song everybody sings and will enjoy singing together. Lucky Ali’s mellifluous voice, and the simple arrangement of guitars and percussion is perfect for a drive and singalong session.

4. Can’t Buy Me Love (A Hard Day’s Night, 1964)

It’s hard not to love a song by The Beatles. It’s the ultimate singalong song by The Beatles and it’ll sit well with a carpool karaoke so swing your head along to this upbeat track.

5. Count On Me (Doo-Wops & Hooligans, 2010)

This Bruno Mars track is just a personal favourite. It’s light and determines a good drive. The added company of your friends would just add to the delight of the song.
