That's the first song that came up in my head when seeing the title if this thread... not that I'd have voted for it though. My vote went to Cool James. Transmission would've gotten it had it been on the list. |
Would The Velvet Underground's 'Rock N Roll' qualify?
The lyrics make me always immediately think about the radio. Jenny said, when she was just five years old There was nothin' happening at all Every time she puts on the radio There was nothin' goin' down at all, not at all Then, one fine mornin', she puts on a New York station You know, she couldn't believe what she heard at all She started shakin' to that fine, fine music You know, her life was saved by rock'n'roll Despite all the imputations You know, you could just go out And dance to a rock'n'roll station And it was all right, hey baby, You know, it was all right Jenny said, when she was just about five years old `You know, my parents are gonna be the death of us all Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars Well, you know, ain't gonna help me at all` Then, one fine morning, she turns on a NewYork station She doesn't believe what she hears at all Ooh, she started dancin' to that fine, fine music You know, her life was saved by rock'n'roll Yeah, rock'n'roll Despite all the computations You could just dance to that rock'n'roll station And baby, it was all right, yeah Hey, it was all right Hey, here she comes now Jenny said, when she was just about five years old 'Hey, you know, there's nothin' happening at all, not at all Every time I put on the radio You know, there's nothin' goin' down at all, not at all But, one fine morning, she hears a New York station She couldn't believe what she heard at all, hey, not at all She started dancing to that fine, fine music You know, her life was saved by rock'n'roll Yes, rock'n'roll Despite all the computations You know, you could just dance to the rock'n'roll station All right All right, all right, and it was all right Oh, listen to me now, it was all right Come on now, believe me, it was all right it was all right Hey, it's all right now,....... |
