10. “Wagon Wheel” by Darius Rucker

“Wagon Wheel” was released in 2013 on the album “True Believers.” It was nominated for the World Music Awards “World’s Best Song” in 2014. This song was originally written by Bob Dylan, and he had originally recorded the demo for the song when he was recording the “Pat Barett and Billy the Kid” album.

Every time I hear this song, I can smell the Pine Sol. When my parents turned on the country music channel, us kids knew there was about to be some hardcore cleaning going on throughout the house. They would play this song frequently when it first came out. As much as I hated cleaning, hanging out with my siblings when the cleaning was done was probably the best part of those days.
