    Did your mum and dad have a music tape they played
    on long journeys.

    Mine had a Country and Western tape that I actually really grew to love despite the perceived naffness of the genre. Highlights included:

    Boy Named Sue - Johnny Cash (Always made me )
    Ode to Billie Jo - Billie Jo Spears (Class song - did it inspire a film?)
    Rhinestone Cowboy - Glen Campbell
    Honey - Bobby Goldsboro (Over sentimental and upsetting to the max!)
