Posted by A few days ago I put up a thread on the We Like L.A. Facebook soliciting community song choices for a playlist I was going to call “Songs You Listen to When You’re Stuck on the 405.”
We got tons of comments with song suggestions, but I knew right away it was going to take a minute to sort through and actually put a playlist together.

Welp, I took my Sunday morning, listened to a bunch of the tracks, then compiled this below playlist on the We Like L.A. Spotify account (yes, we’re even on Spotify). The result is an eccletic little mix of 2+ hours of music which will hopefully make your daily L.A. commute (whether it’s on the 405 or some other freeway) suck just a little bit less. Kudos to everyone who made awesome suggestions and for helping compile such a sweet playlist!
Oh, and I even made few call-outs (you’ll see after the jump) to some of the best suggestions made by our readers. Call it my ‘playlist awards’ section.
In any case, enjoy the tunes!
