<\/p>\nIf you were a 70s kid, chances are you got to listen to a ton of great songs on the car radio on the way to school. And I bet at least one of the following four tunes will take you straight back to your childhood.<\/p>\n
\u201cDancing Queen\u201d by ABBA from \u2018Arrival\u2019 (1976)<\/p>\n

How about a little bit of disco? This iconic tune from ABBA was inescapable on the radio, so I\u2019m going to assume you heard it at least a few times on your way to school.<\/p>\n

When this song came on the radio on the way to school, did you and your siblings decide to annoy your parents to death by attempting to harmonize with it? That\u2019s probably not that original of an experience. \u201cBohemian Rhapsody\u201d by Queen is still one of the most fun songs to sing along to, and it\u2019s over half a century old now. That\u2019s an enduring hit if I\u2019ve ever heard one.<\/p>\n
\u201cBohemian Rhapsody\u201d by Queen remains the band\u2019s most famous song, and it was quite a hit in 1975. This prog-rock operatic classic peaked at No. 9 in the US and No. 1 in the UK.<\/p>\n
\u201cHotel California\u201d by Eagles from \u2018Hotel California\u2019 (1977)<\/p>\n

Remember listening to this song as a kid and getting low-key scared? No? Just me? Either way, \u201cHotel California\u201d by Eagles was a smash hit back in 1977, and it\u2019s been virtually inescapable on classic rock radio ever since.<\/p>\n
This spooky storytelling rock song from Eagles was quite popular back in 1977. It peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and reached the Top 10 almost everywhere else.<\/p>\n
\u201cGo Your Own Way\u201d by Fleetwood Mac from \u2018Rumours\u2019 (1976)<\/p>\n

If you had a really cool mom in the 1970s, you probably got to listen to quite a bit of Fleetwood Mac on the radio on the way to school. This entry on our list of songs that 70s kid listeners likely listened to on the way to school is just one of several songs from Rumours that could have made it to this list. \u201cGo Your Own Way\u201d by Fleetwood Mac<\/a> was one of the most successful singles from that very album, in fact. It peaked at No. 10 on the Hot 100 chart.<\/p>\n Photo by Michael Ochs Archives\/Getty Images<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you were a 70s kid, chances are you got to listen to a ton of great songs…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":787998,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[2616,38598,88,216,2156],"class_list":["post-787997","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-1970s","tag-disco","tag-entertainment","tag-music","tag-rock-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=787997"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787997\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/787998"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=787997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=787997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=787997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
