  • Muito boa esa musica =)

  • Super MariooooOOOOOoooooOOOOoooooo

    

  • good song, crappy vid. buckingham looks super gay as well lol

  • Listened to this on my vacation ;)

  • Clark Griswold sent me here.

  • It's a great song, but yet very simple. If you take out the "holiday Road" verses, there are only 7 lines to the whole song! I agree with everybody, the video does suck.

  • @tmgarant

    I like the video.

  • Lindsey looks like a robot...lol

  • Holiday road...forever...baby!!!

  • mick fleetwood at 1:20

  • The video may not be up to snuff but the quality of the song is undiminished. "Holiday Road" is one of those pieces that simply is immortal in itself-- without the need of visual effects.

  • @Frutonica Dayum auto spell check! That one slipped past me! Sorry if I offended you!

  • What a bloody great song and a bloody awful video.

  • We called this movie with Chevy Chase for "A pear to dad" here in Sweden.....

  • i thought he was a girl by hisname (NO OFFENCE)

  • dancing to this song for the school talent show cause theme is the 1980s ..... SCARED :0

  • Was that Mick Fleetwood laying down the brick on 1:20?? ;-)

  • oh my god! the fact that this is the song from National Lampoon's Vacation makes my day!

  • @ksrm2 fucke yeaaaaaaa!!!!!

  • 43 people had to punch the moose!

  • Great song, awful video.

  • I'm really shocked at all the people who wrote that they didn't know Lindsey Buckingham sang this. It states it right in the opening credits of the movie.

  • @rolentatube well, I don't know about anyone else, but the only time I saw this movie was when I was about ten, which was before my dad got me hooked on Fleetwood Mac.

  • @sn00per8 There are! While this was song was done by just Lindsey, there are two chicks in his band Fleetwood Mac; Christine McVie and Stevie Nicks.

  • @OramAndy Thanx

  • haha .. cheeevy chaaase

  • Classic

  • Is it bad that i found thissong from a collegehmor video?

  • @djones1234567654321 prank war!

  • It gives me chills it's such a good song!

  • Oh Buckingham and your serious face. Somewhere along the interstate Clark Griswold is flying around in a brown family car...

  • Love the Vacation movies... with the Fleetwood Mac "Holiday Road", gets stuck in your head for years at a time...

  • What's the music video about? Lol

  • Comment removed

  • Christmas Vacation in the States, Baby!!!!!

  • @sunshine19701989 great stuff. just want to go on hols. when I hear it.

  • Yeah,  don't understand it either....

  • Umm... What the fuck was this video about exactly??? ((LOL))

  • I think, the singer looks a bit like Paul Auster

  • Looks like where I work, 12 women for every guy and bars on the windows.

  • Great song, shame about the video.

  • @feldschpah I agree. Buckingham looks like a robot!

  • WALLY WORLD! HERE I CAME!! all aboard the family truckster!

  • what a great happy song ten out of ten for that one,well done !

  • 43 couldnt get into Wally World!

  • gorgeous asian chick!

  • Intersting cameo by Mick Fleetwood as the block layer!

  • Its funny cause as a kid I always loved the vacation movies yet I never figured it was Lindsey singing this!!!

  • in the movie i thought this was a 50s song!!

  • @cool8709 The 80's were very nostalgic for the 50's (hence Back to the Future). It had a slight 50's flavor, new inventions, innocence and charm. Many 50's singers were still performing in the 50's. I was a kid in the 80's and it was just as sweet and fun as if it had been the 50's.

  • I am very upset over "Holiday Road" not being available on iTunes. I know there is a live version of the song available, and while I love Lindsey live this is a song that is best on record. iTunes has a borderline monopoly on purchasing single compositions (one song) and because of that fact, they have forgotten that fans are what keeps them lining their pockets. They should hire a more music savvy individual to manage the idiosyncrasies of lifelong music fans, like a lack of "Holiday Road".

  • @UnsilencedMajority Did you try amazon?

  • the dude who made Fleetwood Mac famous

  • It's Bill Hader!!! Woot!

  • Kewel tuna for all Orcas to eat! Love this musical mind!

  • All I want to do is go on a road trip now...

  • 'holiday roa-UH-UH-ho-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh-­oad'.... god i LOVE it!

  • Man i could use a vacation & thx.

  • There should be a love button next to the like button

    Awesome song

  • It's spelled "Lindsey",not Lyndsey.

    Thanks for sharing this,I never knew this was him that sang this!:D

  • Ted Bundy?????

  • this song is too short!

  • 42 people lost there ticket to Wally World!

  • @dandyky it would have been closed for 2 weeks maintenance and cleaning I reckon

  • @dandyky NO!!! Wally World Is Closed for 2 weeks for Repair... Go Back to Chicago instead of Undercover Six Flaggs Magic Mountain in Valencia California.

  • @dandyky ...their ticket...

  • @dandyky 1 person doesn't know the difference between "their" and "there".

  • This is for sure the Griswald's favorite song.

  • I went on a road trip and listened to this for six hours strait

  • Holy shit I never knew Lyndsay Buckingham did this song XD

    I heard this in NL's Vacation a long time ago but I loved Fleetwood Mac way before that.

  • oaoaoaoaoaoaoaoaoaoaoahhhhh!

  • 42 people got their hub caps stolen and "Honky Lips" spayed on their cars.

  • Shitter was full!

  • Hey, there's a Jane's Addiction song starting at the end!

  • 1:10 its a tie fighter haha

  • luv this song.. this shit fuckin rock

  • 42 people have dead end jobs and never get a chance to make it down the 'Holiday Road'.

  • This was a weird music video, but then it is appropriate to mood of the Griswalds' vacations. Also people getting stuck in the work without any break would sing this as gospel.

  • how come all music videos from the 80's were weird?

  • @iDraw3G It was a weird time for a weird society. But it was awesome!

  • Puts you in a happy mood :D

  • Vegas Vacation is actually my favorite out of all the Lampoon Vacation flicks and is what brought me here but its funny that the artist singing this song kind of looks like a white version of Prince lol

  • i luv this song!!

  • Is the dog barking at the end the one Clark tied to the bumper? Thumbs up if you've ever wanted to do that to your neighbors dog

  • Irate Gamer episode ^^ ! !

  • Comment removed

  • I remember watching this on the original MTV like it was yesterday !! Clark W Griswald

  • The Grisworlds <3

  • For years I thought this was Kenny Loggins singing this tune!!

  • @whitener75 I can see that!

  • Had no idea that my favorite singer sang this catchy song...but I have two complaints about the video. First, the song is too damn SHORT!! I wish there was an extended version! And secondly, Lindsay looks like Adam Ant in this video...he looked WAY better in Fleetwood Mac's "Big Love". But thank you Retrovidz for posting!! :)

  • wow he is SO young here ... or am I so old now ? Damn I need a holiday

  • @apatheticempathy haha thats what every one says when their older. fun.

  • I like the dog barks.

  • 0:54 u missed the cupp!!!!!!!

  • @daftpunkforever4 indeed, and why are they bottling and dispensing Windex?

  • where can I find this song? All I can find is the live version.

  • What gorgeous eyes xx

  • wheezy waiter:)

  • 42 people dislike the fact that this song is only 2minutes long.

  • 41 people died while listening to this song and were put on the top of the station wagon in the rain.

  • I don't think Windex is safe to drink.

  • truly iconic... and inexplicable, beyond good or bad. It just is.

  • I wish this song was just a little longer.

  • "I want to marry you" song by Bruno Mars reminds me of this way too much...

  • Damn you Irate Gamer for bringing me to this song!

  • Hey that's perfectly good windex you're dumping!

  • I never saw the video up until about a year ago...but it's a complete 180 from what I pictured it would look like after hearing this song so much over the years in a comedy.

  • Comment removed

  • about the video, it was the 80's, hello people!

  • @darkgammaknight

    The video is fine. It's minimalist art. They don't know what they're talking about.

  • this music video makes no sense...doesnt match the music at all...

  • great song, the video reminds me of Joe vs The Volcano

  • Havin a tough time with the symbology here.

  • Who ever did this cant spell its lindsey buckingham lol.

  • 1:53 edward cullen much?

  • I work there.

  • lindsey hated being stuck in the office

  • Why does this song put me in the Christmas mood? :D

  • well this was a bummer. the video is the exact opposite of the lyrics. being imprisoned at work...

    why can't i find this tune in spotify?? :(

  • the grizwalds heading for wally-world. brilliant film. "Told ya he would`nt like em eddy! "

  • What's the point of the video? Did he end up in jail at the end? Great song, btw, but he kinda creeped me out with that look on his face XD

  • i remember when i was young i used to think he was called stevie nicks and vice versa, took alot of convincing back then that i was wrong lol

  • this song great to listen on road with your family

  • i dont get the video, thinks it sucks ass, and i really dont get the dogs barking at the end. but the song rules- video sucks nutsac

  • Thumbs up if National Lampoon's vacation brought you here

  • a water cooler full of POWERADE.! 0.53

  • This was on a 411VM I had on VHS. Good memories, goes well with some skateboarding :)

  • Am I high ???

  • What is he doing with his right hand under the desk O_o?

  • To any fans that are interested, Lindsey Buckingham, the writer of GYOW, has a new album coming out Sept. 6th, called Seeds We Sow. You can check out his new single, In Our Own Time, at ultimateclassicrock(dot)com/li­­ndsey-buckingham-in-our-own-t­i­me/

    Anyway, give it a listen! It's a great tune!! Peace!

  • @30dayzintheHole

    sorry, writer of of Holiday road haha

  • Comment removed

  • the Irate Gamer brought me here

  • so wheres the holiday road =)

  • 41 aren't on holiday road

  • Is that Frodo Baggins?

  • Forget National Lampoon, TGCTE brought me here.

  • thumps up if National Lampoon's Vacation brought you here.

  • i play this on repeat when im driving to my holiday destination

  • Welcome to hell.

  • you can download this at 4shared.com

  • Hey who else wants that car that Clark Griswold bought?

  • I dont really get this video...

  • @wdr217 I don't think anybody really "gets" Lindsey Buckingham. This video proves that he's sort of in a world of his own. Not that that's a bad thing. At least he makes you think a little bit. And that's better than some of today's artists that are nothing but products of music factories.

  • National Lampoon's Vacation brought me here.

  • You can find this song on Lyndsey Buckingham Live at the Bass in Fort Worth. Best music video ever made!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

  • yes I found it

  • Does anyone know where I might be able to geta a copy of this? Absolutely love this song but can't find it for download on Itunes(apart from a live version).

    Also, would be quite interested to find out, did any other Lindsey Buckingham's music get used in the National Lampoon series of films?

  • @Meanmanmartin2007 Lyndsey had 2 songs on the first vacation film, this one and Dancin' Across the USA

  • @Retrovidz , Just record it off here with Quicktime

  • @Meanmanmartin2007 I have this downloaded not Itunes though but from bearshare.

  • @Meanmanmartin2007  mrtzcmp3.net/holiday_road_1s.h­tml

  • @TheRaggamuffinStylee Thanks for the link

  • @bloggerrick She was the Second Audrey (European Vacation)

  • its sad seeing good actors getting old

  • RIP Snowball #2

  • this is brilliant !!!!

  • Class!!!

  • he looks like a taller version of Frodo.

  • i was 13 when this song came out and it still one the best of all time

  • he has the smallest mouth opening i have ever seen on a human.

  • If you from "VEGAS VACTION" Thumbs up! :D This movie ever. :)

  • Happy 28th birthday to National Lampoon's Vacation released on this exact day back in 1983! For one day everybody get's to be a Griswald.

  • Clark: Oh, you can't think I'd do this on purpose? Look... I tied him to the rear bumper while I was packing the car. It was very confusing. I must have forgot. I'm very sorry, I feel terrible.

    Motorcycle Cop: Poor little guy. Probably kept up with you for a mile or so.

    [tearing up]

    Tough little mutt...

  • I still feel sorry for the dog. May he rest in peace(s).

    The Dog WAS SOMEBODY.

  • Utterly fantastic song , however the video . hahahaha

  • may i ask what is the point in this video it had nothing to do with the song nothing at all

  • @chrisswagga127 the point the video is making is that all the office workers are trapped in their jobs but are in need of a holiday, and keep getting reminders that they do i.e the blue swimming pool water in the cooler, shit video tho, good song from a great film

  • przyjemna piosenka. wpada w ucho.

  • thumbs up if you remember my top coment before!

  • Is that a real gun mom?

    I don't know Rusty, but when this is over your, father may be going away for a little while. LOL

  • This is the most depressing video ever.
