I see that you (and hokie) said you were in before I closed signups. That means you’re in and the total is possibly up to 17 now.
I would like to strongly encourage anyone who wasn’t submitted any songs yet to at least send me their selections for the first 2 categories.

Thanks! Hope you like them
For the road trip song I imagined many hours into the drive alone and a little stir crazy and went with a song-a-long.
Hey, no worries–looking at the categories I don’t have much that jumps out at me. I may chime in during the reveal but will bow out of the running for this one–you’ve already got a lot to listen to. I look forward to everyone else’s submissions!

I went for pretty much the opposite - something rhythmically hypnotic to zone out to.
1st rule of a road song is it can not put you to sleep.
I am still waiting for entries from @ChrisV and @Pauwl. Depending on when I get them I aim to have the first reveal on Monday or Tuesday night.
I noticed that many of you did something I didn’t do when I submitted my songs for ChrisV. While I only sent him the bare link to the song, many took the time to write a few lines for each song. If there are no objections I would like to add them to my write-ups.

I owe you one more entry. I haven’t forgotten.
Where are you from? I’m interested to know what country doesn’t have road trip songs.

Hey, I’m on the road and won’t be able to put an entry together for another 24-36 hrs. Happy for you to go ahead without me if that’s too long.
We can do a little pre Walrus if people are getting antsy; I was going to submit this for category 4 (song with a folk, traditional or ethnic music element)
But I couldn’t find something that was shorter than 16 minutes from this session. A shorter version of it is in the intro of the movie The Reluctant Fundamentalist (mediocre), but it’s mixed with sounds from the movie so I just went with an even dumber choice.
Singapore?
You and your best buddy are going to drive across the country. He asks you to make a playlist or two. What’s the first song you want to play to get the trip off on a good note?

That’s okay. I will have to charge you time and a half though.
I have no idea. I do a long drive every Sunday morning through horse farm country. Last week it was Bill Callahan. Today I chose M.I.A. It’s always just whatever I’m in the mood for.
