I wrote a rap song that made reference to Britney Spears:"You came into my life and made me have doubtJust like Britney and pantys I can do without." And "Just like Britney at a custody case, you know you're gonna lose so get outta my face."I know, I know shame on me!

There are those written with not so famous people referenced. Some songs were powerful enough to make people of all walks of life famous. "HURRICANE" by Dylan comes to mind..........I'm sure their are others? Anyone?

Oh NO, geo!! You didn't!! Now my head is spinning with that song... Hey squids-- If you find David's song, maybe he'll have a music video too...? Then you can watch and listen... listen to the sound of coins dropping in your meter... Can I come too?? Raags
