Your Cruise Playlist?

We have a four hour drive from Las Vegas to Los Angeles next month, as we eagerly drive to our NCL cruise to Mexico Riveria. <3

I want to create a playlist for our drive - songs to get the family excited.

It will start with the obvious -- The Love Boat Theme. :ship:

Any other song suggestions?

What's your cruise jam? OK... go!

Styx

Come sail away.

It has kind of become a tradition for us.

Cr;uisin' by Smokey Robinson

Just a few:

Danza Kuduro by Don Omar ft. Lucenzo

It's impossible to hear this song without dancing around :D. Every time it comes on, windows down, radio up, rocking out, weird looks from other motorists...:cool:

Not many know this song " Fantastic Voyage". Originally done by R&B group Lakeside. Great for dancing on the deck during Sail Away. You can find the video on YT.

OMG, is that the song that goes "come along and riiide on the fantastic voyage! slide, slide, slippity slide.." or something like that?!

Haven't heard that song in YEARS. You totally brought me back! *adding to playlist*

I love the idea of a vacation playlist! We have a 10 hour drive to NOLA coming up soon, and this would be a great way to pass the time.

My favorite is "Island Song" by the Zac Brown Band.

Moody Blues fan here, two of the best that are sea oriented are For My Lady and Guessing Game. Doing the Caribbean I like to listen to Beach Boys, especially Sloop John B.

Fly Me To The Moon-Sinatra(it was playing when we got engaged on our first cruise)

Kokomo- Beach Boys

La Isla Bonita- Madonna

And pretty much everything already listed!
