That's a heckuva playlist, but I am wondering how a lot of those play into the RRR theme. 
The theme is loose.  If I stuck to it strictly, it would be tough to come up with a total playlist at all.  First and foremost, it's a roadtrip playlist, so it'll feature a lot of songs that I just like driving to.

The last two are pretty clearly "closers" though, that much should be obvious.

I'll also add that when I put together a real RRJ playlist, I spend a fairly lengthy amount of time listening to the songs in various order, shifting the sequence around quite a bit, working to ensure that they all fit in the grand scheme, as well as within the continuum of the songs before and after.  It's not uncommon for me to put a song tentatively in the playlist, and then find it just doesn't "fit" anywhere, and then I have to eject it.  For a playlist that's usually 13-15 songs, I will typically go through about 35 or 40 with potential, and narrow it down.

In the 1985 case, I haven't done any of that.  But just looking at it and knowing those songs, I think it would probably flow pretty well.

Speaking of music I like driving to, the album winner in that category is RCHP's Californication.  And I couldn't tell you why.  It just always had that effect on me.  It came out in '99, I think, and from the first time I listened through it, it made me wish I was driving a long trip through a desert on a sunny summer day in a convertible with the top down.

Years later I took a long trip through the southwest in July, and somewhere in Arizona the landscape began to remind me of exactly what I used to picture.  I fired up the iPod and put that album on, and it was as glorious as I always thought it would be, even if I didn't have a convertible.

Sounds like a candidate for bwar's "whole album" thread!

I thought about it, but alas, under circumstances other than driving into the great beyond, I will usually skip "Get On Top," as I never cared for it all that much.

Zuul (also known as The Gatekeeper) is a demigod and minion of Gozer, alongside Vinz Clortho. She possessed Dana Barrett in Ghostbusters

There is no Dana.  Only Zuul.
