Name songs that are fitting to be heard at a desolate gas station

Hotel California
Duke

 

Obviously…you need gas…

 

"The Way," by Fastball. Though, again, I might just be influenced by my memory of the video.

 

I'm going to say anything by ZZ Top.

 

This sounds all kinds of desolate, and even mentions an endless highway:




Alternately:

 

The song whose lyrics contain “Is there gas in the car?”

 

Riders on the storm

 

First thing that came to mind

 

That wicked song by Chris Isaak

 

Or . . .

But I'd bet money on this one . . .

But you never know . . .

. . . . and then again . . . .


Although it's hard to meld this thinking of my local Stop and Drop Mart with Hindustani proprietor, with the Hindi images and incense behind the counter, and his Vietnamese wife selling spring rolls next to the Lotto counter. Probably not gonna have Dixie Beer or a fried bologna biscuit . . . .

 

Came in expecting to see early love for that little ol' band from Texas, leaving satisfied...

 

Only the first 15 seconds of the first one.

 

Signed, sealed and delivered.

 

I'm thinkin Tom Waits - Burma Shave. "Hell Marysville ain’t nothing but a wide spot in the road"
Or Joni Mitchell - Paprika Plains.
Both such atmospheric songs.
