How could you forget Janis Joplin's "Mercedes Benz"?

"Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?"

What about LFO, the whole idea that they define people by a brand of clothing ("I like girls who wear abercrombie and fitch") really irks me. From the two songs I've heard by them it would seem to me that all they do to create songs is to just take a bunch of pop culture references and mix them up in a bag and pull out random ones. That whole Summer Girls song makes no sense at all. Well, maybe all the preteen girls in the world see something deep and profound about it that I am missing.

Don Henley's "The Boys of Summer": both "Out on the road today, I saw a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac" and "You got your Wayfarers on."

George Thorogood's "I Drink Alone" is pretty much a listing of liquor brands.
