In a few days, my family and I will be setting off on our annual 12-hour car ride to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Hours and hours of straight driving grows to be boring and exhausting. The go-to way for anyone to pass time is to listen to music. However, with so many hours to waste, it’s easy to get tired of the same old songs. How many times can you listen to Don’t Let Me Down or One Dance before you’ve had enough? (Don’t get me wrong I’m obsessed with these songs but even I can only listen to them so many times). Luckily for all of you who will be experiencing a long car ride, I have put together a list of some great throwbacks that will hopefully make your ride a bit more bearable.
