No apogeu da Rota 66, devido a II Guerra Mundial, foram
tempos difíceis, mas a canção “Get your kicks on route 66”, de Bobby
Troup, e popularizada por Nat King Cole em 1946, foi um especial ingrediente que
fez a diferença. Uma canção quase que intimando para que as pessoas colocassem
o pé na estrada, que mexeu ainda mais com sentimento de liberdade que havia no
seio da juventude americana.
Assim, nas décadas de 50 e 60, os jovens com seus
Cadillacs e motos Harley Davidson, aventuravam-se pelas estradas em busca das
praias do Pacífico, deixando de lado os costumes conservadores da costa leste
dos Estados Unidos, à procura da ensolarada e liberal Califórnia.
Mas, até hoje essa canção é relembrada em muitos
países, e nós vamos estamos a publicando com vários intérpretes, até um vídeo em
“karaoke” para que a diversão seja
completa, e para os mais exigentes um vídeo com lições de guitarra.
Divirtam-se,
Get your kicks on route 66

If you ever plan to motor west,
Travel my way, take the highway that is best.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.
It winds from chicago to la,
More than two thousand miles all the way.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.

And oklahoma city is mighty pretty.
