Why+Cover+it?

Why do you think so many bands have covered the song? This song, written by Bobby Troup, tells us about the imposing route, the Route 66. This route, which has almost 2,5 mi, has been established in 1926’s November, and since then, it has got lots of stories to tell us. The route winds 7 states and it’s been one of the most important routes. The nice point of the song, is that it goes describing not only the route, but also the cities around it. In a rhythmic and pretty surrounding melody, it get the listeners dancing in a few seconds. The reason why it’s covered by so many bands, we may say that it shows not only the route, but also the travelling emotion through the lyrics. And, of course, it’s main purpose, the Route is historic, so, it becomes a symbol of travelling in the middle past century, not only for its size, or other thing, but by the development brought by it to all the American society. The first McDonald’s takes place over there, and take a look nowadays, how is McDonald’s? That’s the point, the route 66 innovated on the way people travel, it became trips quicker, but also enjoyable, and for it importance, developed all around it. This song can be considered, as a cultural reference on the American Music as the mother route, is a reference on the highway’s scope.
