Get your kicks on E66 (parody/cover of 'Route 66' by Chuck Berry)

Here's a fun parody I made with my father-in-law, Chris Brightmore,, during his recent visit to Dubai. It's become a tradition to record a song each time he visits and we always have a laugh doing it!
'E66' is a parody of the popular Chuck Berry song, 'Route 66' which has also been covered by various artists including the Rolling Stones and Dr Feelgood.
Instead of recording another cover, Chris re-wrote the lyrics about a popular highway in Dubai called the 'E66'. This will no doubt appeal more to people who live in Dubai and can relate to the various place names mentioned in the song.
Chris is credited for writing the lyrics and performing lead vocals whilst I played all the instruments and mixed/produced the recording and video.
My wife, daughters and Chris' wife, Kathy' also contributed with chorus backing vocals as well as dancing in the video.
We hope you enjoy the video/song as much as we did recording it!

LYRICS:
'Get your kicks on E66'
Well if you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way
On the highway
That's the best
Get your kicks on the E66
Well it winds from Al Ain to Dubai
Just 80 magic miles on which you'll fly
So get your kicks on E66
Well it goes from Old Metha
Down through Al Faqa
Academic City looks oh so pretty
You'll see Deira Island
Al Madam and Al Schwaib too
Nad Al Sheba Racecourse
Dubai City of course
Al Mankhool, Sharjah and Bu Shaghara
Would you get hip to this kind of trip
and go take an Emirati trip
Then get your kicks on the E66
Well it goes past 'Trash Mountain'
Downtown with its fountains
Silicon Oasis looks oh so pretty
You'll see Deira island
Al Madam and Al Schwaib too
Nad Al Sheba Racecourse
Dubai City of course
Al Mankhool, Sharjah and Bu Shaghara
So if you find this highway be hip
Go take that Emirati trip
And get your kicks on E66 (repeat)
Original music by Chuck Berry
Parody lyrics by Chris Brightmore
