Lindsay Buckingham's song "Holiday Road", originally written for the soundtrack to National Lampoon's Vacation, was a super-concentrated ball of power-pop bliss that packed catchy riffs and an irresistible singalong chorus into a two minute jam, sort of like suitcases crammed in the back of the Griswolds’ Ford Country Squire Wagon.
Norwegian husband and wife Andre and Line Dahlmann, under the super creative moniker The Dahlmanns, released a version that was even poppier and rockier than the Fleetwood Mac alum's. Playing this one at full volume is a surefire way to start off any road trip on the right foot.
"I found out long ago, oooohhhh/ It's a long way down the Holiday Road, oooohhhh"
I found out yesterday, actually, just how far down the Holiday Road is.
It's 1,018.6 miles.(1639.3 kilometers, for the rest of the world).
Here we go on our East Coast kick!
Holiday Rooooo-OOOOOO-OOOOO-OOOOO-OOOO-woah-OOOO-OOOOO-OOOO-oad!
