Top In Car Sing-along Songs According to South Dakotans

An automobile association in the U.K. put out a list of the best in-car sing-along songs ever recorded. Not surprisingly, "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen was number one on the list, followed by Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" and Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline,"  "Dancing Queen" by ABBA, and "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey. With the exception of one person who had never heard "Bohemian Rhapsody," no one debated these songs or the others on the list of 25.

I challenged people to come up with songs that were better or could at least be considered worthy ("We're not worthy" from Wayne's World suddenly comes to mind) of being in the top ten.

Most popular songs texted in, which means they got at least three texts, were:

"Piano Man" by Billy Joel

"American Pie" by Don McLean

"Friends in Low Places" by Garth Brooks

"Free Fallin'" by Tom Petty

"I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by The Proclaimers

"Jack and Diane" by John Mellencamp

"Fishin' in the Dark" by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

"Love Shack" by The B-52's

What unexpectedly went along with the talk of "Bohemian Rhapsody" and its prominent scene in the film Wayne's World was that the most popular text message that was not a song title was "If you're gonna spew, spew into this."
