Hollywood RecordsIf you’re planning to travel by car this Easter weekend to visit family, you’re likely to have music playing in your vehicle when you do. And according to a new survey, you’re likely to be singing along to hits from the ’70s and ’80s.

The U.K.’s Daily Mail reports that a survey conducted by Britain’s Automobile Association found that over half of people going on a vacation by car will participate in a sing-along during the trip, while 95 percent said music makes the journey go faster.

The survey revealed that the #1 sing-along car song was Queen‘s classic “Bohemian Rhapsody.” Also among the top five tunes to sing in the car are Bon Jovi‘s “Livin’ on Prayer” at #2 and Journey‘s “Don’t Stop Believin'” at #5.

According to the survey, other popular songs on the list include Oasis’ “Wonderwall” at #7, The Eagles‘ “Hotel California” at #8, The Beatles‘ “Hey Jude” at #9 and Survivor‘s “Eye of the Tiger” at #10.

Among the tunes further down on the tally are Meat Loaf‘s “Bat Out of Hell,” Europe‘s “The Final Countdown,” Lynyrd Skynyrd‘s “Sweet Home Alabama,” John Lennon‘s “Imagine” and David Bowie‘s “Let’s Dance.”

Eighty-five percent of respondents said they would find it “unbearable” not to have music in their cars.
