I recently updated all my iPod playlists, which got me thinking about the best music for cooking. I like to cook to upbeat music that I can sing along to and that gives me energy. The music doesn’t have to be about food or cooking, but it’s fun when it is.
Here is my personal cooking music playlist:
- “Honey Pie” by the Beatle
- “Strawberry Letter 23″ by The Brothers Johnson
- “Sheep Go to Heaven” by Cake
- “Happy Meal” by The Cardigans
- “Soul Kitchen” by The Doors
- “Rotten Peaches” by Elton John
- “Extraordinary Machine” by Fiona Apple
- “Sugar Magnolia” by The Grateful Dead
- “Coconut” by Harry Nilsson
- “Jambalaya” by John Fogerty
- “Yummy Yummy Yummy” covered by Julie London
- “Dixie Chicken” by Little Feat
- “Sweet Side” by Lucinda Williams
- “Church” by Lyle Lovet
- “Breakfast in America” by Supertramp
- “Burning Down the House” by The Talking Heads
- “This Must Be the Place” by The Talking Heads
- “Honey Bee” by Tom Petty
- “And It Stoned Me” by Van Morrison
- “One More Cup of Coffee” covered by The White Stripes
What are your favorite songs to cook to?

Burning Down the House would cause me concern to play while cooking. Just in case i did just that. but i’ve always been paranoid of songs about houses burning down, in case they jinx me.
