Just a bit of fun….
« on: February 27, 2022, 22:23:46 »
So, how many songs do you know where Mercedes Benz is mentioned?

I can think of three

The obvious: oh Lord won’t you buy me: Janis Joplin

Hotel California - The Eagles

Get this party started - Shirley Bassey


Over to you 😁 ……

Off the top of my head: 

Maren Morris - 80's Mercedes (on the radio right now  if you listen to the right station)

Neil Young - Payola Blues (not his best work)

DMC - Mercedes (cool SLC I think in the video)

Pink - Get the Party Started (from my daughter's old music)


Then there are probably several rapper type songs but these are the only ones I know

Are you kidding me...., Awesome song by the New Radicals:  "You Get What You Give."   Video is good too (YouTube).

Too bad they mention smashing it though.

I, being a drummer, it's a fun song to play.

Cheers and God Bless,
JohnnyC.
