Is it time to hit the road with your crew for a trip up and down the Pacific Coast? While your streaming service is eager to put together a playlist for you, how do you make one that appeals to every generation riding in the SUV?
Once you have exhausted tunes for your tots and a Disney sing-along, it might be time to turn back the clock and rock out to these generational favorites. Be like James Corden with Carpool Karaoke time.
If you want to watch your grandparents come to life, turn on their favorite rock opera songs. Do they really know all the words to “Come Sail Away” by Styx, “Paradise by the Dashboard Lights” by Meatloaf, or start headbanging during “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen? Oh, you betcha.
Everyone knows these songs, from your littles right up to Uncle Jack. The whole minivan will be rocking as you belt out lyrics like, “We all live in a Yellow Submarine, Yellow Submarine, Yellow Submarine…” Slow it down and lean together as you join in, “Hey Jude. Don’t make it bad. Take a sad song….” Or make the drive-thru clerk smile as everyone gets there, “With a Little Help from My Friends.”
Bring the party back to the 21st century and pump up the bass! Roll low and slow as your seat vibrates with these road trippin’ faves.
When driving up to Redwood National Forest, it’s time to find some tunes that take you away to distant lands. Celebrate your roots and join John Denver in belting out, “Country Road Take Me Home.” Or how about the all-stars singing the mix with Willie Nelson’s “On The Road Again” and Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You.”
“Old Town Road” by Lil Nas X blends past generations with a youthful beat.
Which is your favorite – Route 66 performed by Nat King Cole or John Mayer?
Can you taste the sweet potato pie? Such a savory memory is sparked when you push play on “Song of the South” by Alabama.
Is this a girl’s shopping spree? You know they wanna start bopping around in the back, and you wouldn’t mind joining in. Add a few of their best songs ever to your list like, “Red,” “Should’ve Said No,” and “Getaway Car.”
A really great sing-a-long demands a fabulous sound system. If your car, truck, or SUV has a sad stereo under the dash, it might be time to visit the Service and Parts Department down at the Beach Boulevard of Cars and upgrade yours. A subwoofer, 1800 watts, and a dozen speakers will make this road trip as memorable as its playlist.
