My Mama had a Miniature Doberman Pinscher that had a bad habit of snapping and biting me when I would try to hug Mama, so one day I decided to bite him back just to let him know how it felt to get bit. I lightly bit down on one of his ears, not hard but just enough to make him jump. The first time didn't seem to take, so the next time he snapped at me I bit his ear again but this time a little harder. That time he got the message and from then on he never tried to bite me again.
The 80's ruled and was by far the greatest decade ever. Living in Manhattan - what a great life and the nicest people And of course the greatest music and club scene.
The double brake lights, and double headlights, were added for the film. It's really a Ford LTD wagon. I saw a stock one going down the street, and the license plate frame said" The Griswold Family Truckster"
Hard to be sad while jamming this great song. It truly conjures up grand and timeless images. Very great contribution to an out standing film. BTW, I owed the 45 back in the day, with the equally awesome b side track. You might think this is funny but I always listen for the dog barking at the very end 😆

I was born in the 90's but i always feel like the 90's and backwards were a much happier time. Or is it just me? Thb the future seems cold, colorless and depressing and it begun with the 00's..
You should check out the movie Midnight in Paris. It talks a lot about this concept. The world was always bad...just in different ways. I used to think this when I was younger, until I realized the reality.
Because stuff like this brought people to greatness and that's all people see. They think our love is a product of their fame and skill. No screw that, their fame comes from our happiness............ dumb @#$%.
Oh shoot, this is where the song's from, and who sang it...no way, I heard this somewhere other than Natl. Lampoon and totally forgot about it! And Lindsey Buckingham of all people!
There was an aviator sunglasses that folded in half and had its own vinyl carrying case with zipper. Did anyone use those sunglasses in the 80’s? I remember I got a pair when I was 7.

It was an American tradition before the song, The United States Interstate highways were built in the 1950's to facilitate the American road trip and the U.S. dependence on automobiles
I'm not on vacation right now, but I am only weeks away from publishing my first book and im stoked and this song always lifts my spirits and gets me hype! But AYWAY, I get two paid vacations from work a year and every time im going on vacation I have to play this song at least 5 times 🌴🥥👌🏾
4 lines, and a chorus. Still incredible.
yup.
Absolutely ❤❤
Great memories when with the decline of Rock and Role you know free Spirit music America is taking a hard dump,thanks to stupid politicians💩
THE ultimate travel song. Nothing else compares!
This song is to road trips what toilet paper is to shitting
L
Llllllll
On the Road Again - Willie Nelson
Hell yes!! Absolutely nothing
Truth
When Lindsey Buckingham did this, little did he know that Holiday Road would be THE vacation anthem.
"Russ, take Dinky for a walk."
"But dad, he bites!"
"Bite him back!"

Miss the 80s every single day…my GOD it was the happiest and most social time in human history !!!
What has happened to us???
th-cam.com/video/RYbe-35_BaA/w-d-xo.html - 711 in 1987 people were just different
@@nickpolizzi5897 yeah, just try to be friendly and happy again
It was, so let's do it again !

This song always makes me feel good. It's nice to hear happy songs sometimes and this one is a winner.
Happy happy holidays is pretty close. Lol.
I consider "Merry Christmas Charlie Manson ", a holiday classic in my mind. A awesome South Park episode with the song
Beautiful comment :)
"Watch the road, Clark"!!
:-)
Contender for the happiest song ever.
Currently listening to this on my way to my vacation place, and I have the biggest smile on my face☺️.
Update: Here we go again!
This song has ALWAYS given me soooo much LIFE!!!! 😂😂😂❤❤❤
It’s no longer a mission, it’s a quest! We’re on a quest to have fun😂
I'M gonna have fun, and YOU'RE gonna have fun. We're gonna have so much goddamn fun, we'll be whistling "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" out of our assholes!
I can see that big green Ford Station wagon with the double brake lights etc So FUNNY! Timeless classic from the 80’s !!

The model Queen Truckster !
The metallic pea, model queen family truckster 🤣🤣🤣🤣💀

@@TBONE_2004 🤣🤣🤣
The family truckster, you only think you hate it. But wait until you drive it.
Even the soundtraks of the 80's were well still r great...
One. Of the. Funniness. Films. Ever. Loved. Them
From simpler times.....much simpler!
Genius composer Buckingham never fails....great tune.thanks.pj.😊👋
Its only the biggest hole in America. Clark watch your language. Make that the second biggest
His wife has the biggest mouth (hole)
@Kafito Global bruh
Classic song and a cult classic movie from 1983: I remember them both!
The dog bark near the end was another part i will always love about the track
This definitely the best American road trip song!

Makes me want to drive to Walleyworld.
Member kids when I asked you the one place you wanted to go, Rusty? Hawaii? Shut up Russ.
Sorry folks, park's closed. The moose out front shoulda told ya.

I have always loved this song and I have always thought the original version was entirely too short. Thanks for extending it!
my mom showed me these movies when i was younger and i’m now 18 and still enjoy them 😭
@@alannamarie7118Great movie and song 😊
Has to be played everytime we set off on holiday in the car!
...but which holiday? 🤔
Love the movie,song,and the 80s❤😊
This is my awesome summer song of all time!!!!!!!
Gonna be driving from San Antonio back home to Chicago, definitely on the Playlist
Love the picture, a Tribute to Ash vs. The Evil Dead! Another great franchise.
What???

Loved all the National Lampoons Vacation films
i love old school 80s posters so awesome
Reminds me of the days when I'd go to my friend's house to watch these movies on VHS - good times.
I was born in the 90's but i always feel like the 90's and backwards were a much happier time. Or is it just me? Thb the future seems cold, colorless and depressing and it begun with the 00's..
We gotta change the trajectory
yeah the future is when you own nothing and will be happy lmao
You should check out the movie Midnight in Paris. It talks a lot about this concept.
The world was always bad...just in different ways. I used to think this when I was younger, until I realized the reality.
It's just you.
I agree with Jason Torrens--it is you.. The older you get the further back you look, it just seems better.
I will always watch this till I die. 😊
Why cant music and movies be like this anymore? Cpmibg from the soul instead of from the ego?
Because stuff like this brought people to greatness and that's all people see. They think our love is a product of their fame and skill. No screw that, their fame comes from our happiness............ dumb @#$%.
Booboo... Porque no me manches mi moomoo. 😁😘
Holiday road is best Holiday road ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Holiday road ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Just planned a day trip up to Put-In-Bay and this is THE song for that
I found long ago, it's a long way down the holiday road

One of the greatest songs ever written!
Everytime Anyone Takes A Vacation You Got To Play The Song Holiday Road.
This makes me cry! It's so beautiful!😊🤗
I thought the original was short lol now I know why. I'm used to the promo VINYL version!!!?? Lol

Perfect song. Enough said.

Cheers for uploading 1 of my childhood tunes 😊
Always listen to it when I go on holiday
Nothing like winding all your windows down, blasting this and speeding down a highway
Thank You TH-cam & Internet
This tune transforms "the clap" into a good thing.
If you’ve never seen this movie, you’re uncultured. If you’ve never listened to this song on a road trip, you’re also uncultured. 😂😂
But, thankfully. there is still yet hope for those poor souls. lol
if you've never been to wally world and punched a moose...you're uncultured :p
@@MrMattias87 if you’ve never held up an amusement park security guard at gunpoint to give your family the best vacation ever then your uncultured
If you’ve never French Kissed your daughter you’re cultured 😂
no, youd be sus
When I'm on a long road trip alone, I sing this song for hours.
Since the 80s. This world has gone to sh*t!!
Gr8 movie ! Ingenious!!
Russ….

Subscribed and liked and having lots of fun with song.
It's impossible to be in a bad mood when you listen to this song.

There was an aviator sunglasses that folded in half and had its own vinyl carrying case with zipper. Did anyone use those sunglasses in the 80’s? I remember I got a pair when I was 7.

Great movie & Love this song, especially the dog at the end !! That was dinky. Lol
I can travel everywhere during the pandemic in my imagination with this song. Take a ride on a West Coast kick, rooooaaddd
Love the bass and drums! They drive the song.
This is the family vacation anthem. Just came back from taking the family to Busch Gardens singing this song. The movie inspired an American Tradition
It was an American tradition before the song, The United States Interstate highways were built in the 1950's to facilitate the American road trip and the U.S. dependence on automobiles
@@playboymaxim if there was a song to compliment the tradition, I would pick this one
Im playing this song like crazy as f$^& when i take my kids to Disneyland
"There jt is kids.. my motherland"
"Dad, grandma's from Chicago"
"Shut up, Russ!"
I always thought the original mix of this song was too short.
It's John Hughes and his music influence
I'm not on vacation right now, but I am only weeks away from publishing my first book and im stoked and this song always lifts my spirits and gets me hype! But AYWAY, I get two paid vacations from work a year and every time im going on vacation I have to play this song at least 5 times 🌴🥥👌🏾
