Vegas songs
 
I'm going to be driving around the Vegas strip for a few days next week, what songs would be the best.

I have come up with a few so far:

Elvis - Viva Las Vegas
The Average White Band - Pick Up The Pieces
Kenny Rodgers - The Gambler
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy - You & Me & The Bottle Makes 3 Tonight (Baby)

I will enventually post my 'music based on location' thread sometime...

But, you you and some buddies were going to cruise the strip one afternoon/night, what songs would you play that would give away the fact that you are tourists?

I heard one more song on the radio in Vegas and it should have made the list.
AC\DC - The Jack

Even though the other meaning to the song that gets sung at live shows didn't really apply to my trip to Vegas, it's not to say it hasn't happened to other people.

ZZ Top does a good version of Viva Las Vegas.

And there's always Dire Strait's "Money for Nothing."

Springsteen also does a great version of "Viva Las Vegas"

Here is another one:

O'Jays - For The Love Of Money

It's a little too played now after being on the Apprentice every week, but it is about money.
