Hi Jane . 2112 is the best by rush hands down . I think in the over 500 cds i have only three came after 1975 . I was always different and more underground and harder rock . yes they do stay in our hearts and memories . Your hubby has great taste . hugs and love and peace

If you’re not singing in the car, you’re not trying hard enough to have fun! I’m a rocker, but I like other music too. I’ll sing along with whatever’s playing - as long as I’m alone in the car. 😁

Im so embarrassed about the Eagles. That was one of the bands that whenever they came on my Mom had to start singing them when I was a kid to an adult. But they're catchy, except hotel California I hate that song. Always will. But lying eyes, new kid in town, desperado-- man, golden hits of The 70s... alright I gotta get my Steeley Dan fix now 😂

The hubs and I went to a bar to hear a local band last weekend, and they played "Take on Me" -- And I belted it at the top of my lungs... in public! But how can you *not* sing along to that song (while visualizing the music video)...

I ALWAYS sing in the car....when I'm alone. 😂 Usually, I'm head banging to something heavy. Although Mary Chapin Carpenter is in my key! But she doesnt need to worry! HAHA

Yes, I sing in the car! Chief thing I miss about my hubby - we both sang along. In the car, in the house, in the yard…! Many years together, and a constant soundtrack. I have eclectic, wide-ranging taste in music, and No Guilt.

Oh yeah, when I make the 7 hour drive to visit friends and family, I have the radio on a bit of the ride and belt my favorites. I have a few cd’s and change channels until I find something I like. A lot of the trip is silent though.

My kiddo refuses to change the channel having a favorite channel is tough. They would rather turn the radio off if a “bad” song comes on rather than changing it. lol

A 7 hour drive?1 You definitely you need some good jams. We try to compromise. Occasionally we will belt out a song together, my son and I. Those times are precious

When my kiddo goes with me, we have our favorite CD’s that we sing along with. We’ve been making that trip for about 7 years now. I go more often than they go though. Belting out the song together is so much fun!

You shook me is a good one. Speakers have to be busted on that one! Anything ACDC! There are songs that get me too, maybe that's why I've been listening to more podcasts
