Hi Denis…thanks for stopping by. Yeah, those are two great tunes. I think I will create a “user” suggested post of songs and add yours there. Thanks again. Cheers.
Great list! I must add 2: Truckin& Goin Down the Road Feelin Bad by the Grateful Dead though. Both upbeat to help you stay awake, good for singing along to, and obviously related to road tripping!
Hi Ali! Thanks so much! Yeah, it’s really tough to narrow down a list like this to just 20. Thanks for your suggestions! Cheers, Mike
Nice list Mike…I would also like to sing and drive along to Diary Beneath the Tree by Bread, but I’m really showing my age here!!!
Thanks so much Cindy…love getting additional suggestions for readers to consider. Cheers!
On the Who, might have gone with Magic Bus for theme purposes. Got to have (Get Your Kicks) Route 66 on the list (any number of versions). And La Grange from ZZ Top would make my road trip list
Hey Joe! Some good suggestions! Thanks for stopping by and sharing. Cheers!
Simple Minds – Don’t you forget about me
Tears for Fears – Shout
INXS – The one thing
David Bowie – China Girl
REM – Driver 8
Peter Schilling – Major Tom
Oh my gosh, those are some great suggestions…love all of those artists and songs. You have good taste Dana! Thanks for chiming in. 😉
