Although @JamesHxstatic only asked for songs with “fly” in the title, I like to take themes and run with them. Okay, in this case, fly with them.

And, to absolutely NOBODY’S surprise, look what’s here….. #9: Jet Airliner - Steve Miller Band As I said with the Sinatra song yesterday, I just can’t be that unpredictable. The ol’ Space Cowboy is taking a more conventional mode of transportation here in one of his biggest hits from the 70s.
