Any idea what this song might be?

Hm. I think some of you guys haven't appreciated that she clearly stated the song has the exact same vibe as "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Siberian Khatru".
😁

Does this mean I’ve got to listen to sweet home Alabama now to see what sounds like it 😬😁

[Clarky]

How about "Texas Hold em" by Beyonce? Country vibe, released relatively recently (so likely to be played on radio) and mentions a State (albeit not a country) in the title

[Clarky]

Very Sweet Home Alabama vibe to opening guitar lines ...

 

 

[Bolo]

Eastwood sounds like it could be a country right?

 

Clint Eastwood - Gorillas

That Beyonce song is a lot better than I expected it to be.  
I'll now have to listen to the rest of the album.

That would be hysterical and awesome in equal measure! 

"Sweet Alabama goes through the motions"

It has a lyric about a pillow and head I think.

Even Flow by Pearl Jam …

" … rests his head on a pillow made of concrete"

And it’s sort of a party song

Right, not Even Flow then. 😂

It is 

 

But you really need to read the WhatsApp messages that came when I was sent that:

 

 

Worth it just for the level of confusion on show!! 🤣

Just for clarity - those are her posts, not mine!

[Doctor J]

Wow, you and Liz Truss are really close

[NigeJ]

Cant imagine Skynyrd playing that song.... 😄

[YouMa]

Godiego. Monkey Magic?

[Richard R]

We had the winner a few posts back:

"Is this the way to Amarillo"

 

So nothing at all to do with gorillas, but it did have a pillow in the lyrics! And my colleague's WhatsApp post give a good indication of her confusion about the song too.

Fantastic country song by Chuck Mead- BR 549/Raul Malo-The Mavericks featuring a monkey/chimpanzee in the video. Might not be the one you are after but a cracking tune ,regardless!

Dani California?  Sort of has the Sweet home Alabama thing going on and a state rather than a country but, who knows?

[Doctor J]

Everyone who actually read the thread knows 😂

I've updated the first post to say the answer is on p2.
