(7,401 posts)11. I used to live in Nashville.
And, a good friend of mine lived in the same house where he wrote 'King Of The Road'. We used to jam in the same room. And, we used to play that tune every time as a tribute to him and his energy in the house.
My choice is 'Under Pressure'.

Finger snapping at the beginning and end. I understand the composer, Earle Hagen, did the whistling.
