Weird thread, but here are a few from over the years that I have discovered on the road.
Viva Colonia by Hohner- whilst on my travels in Germany (Cologne)

Why are the crowd in costume? Tradition. I was amazed too when I was asked to dress up but glad I did. Think half of Melbourne turning up to a parade in the city dressed up in anything from a nun costume to 'Scream' to a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
Moscow Moscow by Genghis Khan (strangely enough at a party on same trip)

The Wild Rover (Dublin, Ireland) Most common version though is by The Dubliners

Men At Work- Down Under (anyone who has been to London will understand how often this gets played)

Dirty Old Town- The Pogues (actually about England but considered Irish)
[YOUTUBE]kVUZuVZWHkk[/YOUTUBE]
The Gambler- Kenny Rogers (roadtripin USA)
[YOUTUBE]uzfCgycpoqs[/YOUTUBE]
Rednecks, Whitesocks and Blue Ribbon Beer (roadtrip USA- radio in Alabama haha)

Somewhere Over The Rainbow- Israel Kmakawiwoʻole (cover) (Hawaii, USA)
Special as it was played whilst we ascended Haleakala volcano in Maui for sunrise. Never believe someone that big could be so skilled on the ukelele or have such a smooth voice. If I get married I reckon this is potentially a song for the bride to walk down the aisle haha.
