The Neil Young/Budweiser connection.
"This notes for you"
Anyone know this song? I heard it the first time just today and found it rather funny. It was written in 1970 and more or less the whole song is about how he isn't a corporate sellout and won't make music for "the man"
the very beginning goes like this:
"Ain't singing for pepsi, ain't singing for coke. Ain't singing for nobody, make me look like a joke.
Ain't singing for Miller, ain't singing for BUD. Won't sing for nobody, make me look like a dud.....this notes for you"
The funny part here is, this exact tune eventually became Bud's theme for years with "this bud's for you" with the exact guitar rift...which means at some point that they (Bud) had to ask Neil Young to buy his song about not ever selling out.
The song is definately worth the download.

So why doesn't the radio play more of him and other good Canadian artists, instead of that lame ass pop flunky Brian Adams? I've been asking that question for years.
