*Travelin' Man     Ricky Nelson   which made it to #1 in 1961

For a different approach, songs about  DISTANCES/TRAVELING...........

Radar Love live performance 

Radar Love - Golden Earring (Dutch), 1973 Single, Billboard #13, also released on the album. According to the dedicated website the song has been covered MORE THAN 500 TIMES. Yikes!

I prefer the original but . . . hey there's nothing wrong with a good cover interpretation either.

And oh by the way - Radio playing some forgotten song - Brenda Lee 'Coming on Strong' 

More than you probably want to know . . . thank you Wikipedia!

Love Shack The B-52's - 1989 on the album 'Cosmic Thing'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SOryJvTAGs
.
If you see a faded sign by the side of the road that says
Fifteen miles to the, love shack, love shack yeah
I'm headin' down the Atlanta highway

.

It's a comeback song, charted #3 in the US, following the struggle of losing Ricky Wilson in 1985 (lead guitar).

Other trivia - or why I love Wikipedia 
Apparently, RuPaul (pictured, right) was in the original video, and Shaq lip-synced it on TV (Lip Sync Battle, 2016).

It's a real tin roof shack near Athens where Kate lived for a while in the Seventies, and where they jammed sometimes. Burned down in the 80s. That cool house in the video is in upstate New York.
