Songs where artists call out their record label in the song title?

This song/there's nothing Bright about it

 

Django Reinhardt- Stompin' At Decca.

 

Graham Parker - "Mercury Poisoning" comes to mind:

 

I posted that on page 1 already. Does no one read a thread before posting anymore?

 

Gee thanks. Civility rules here.

 

Here for this.

 

Sorry if my post appeared to be rude Lightworker. It wasn't meant to be. It's just that I've noticed something like this happening at least 4 times in the past week or so on different threads. I guess it's starting to get to me. I need to chill out.

 

Track Records on The Who Sell Out.
Not much of a song I'm afraid.

 

Nat King Cole-Jumpin' At Capitol

 

A Jam Session at (RCA) Victor-Tommy Dorsey, Bunny Berigan, Fats Waller and others.

 

James Brown-Try Me (Try Me Records was a short lived JB label).

 

Vanz Kant Danz by John Fogerty - Songfacts

Interesting story in link above.

John Fogerty - original songtitle Zanz Kant Danz - Centerfield LP. I have the original LP before Fogerty was forced to change the title.

Centerfield contains a few songs that take a dig at the Fantasy Records owner.

 

PRINCE & the Revolution - "Paisley Park"

 

For a while after signing with Arista, Bob Weir changed the lyrics to Jack Straw from "We used to play for silver now we play for life" to "now we play for Clive".

 

Kinks - The Moneygoround

 

George Harrison - "Apple Scruffs"

 

Not sure if this counts, but George Harrison's "Dark Horse" was released on Apple Records because he was still under contract with them, even though he had already started up Dark Horse Records.

 

Reunion - Life is a Rock (But the radio rolled me):

"Eric Clapton, pedal wah-wah, Stephen Foster, do-dah do-dah
Good Vibrations, Help Me Rhonda, Surfer Girl and Little Honda
Tighter, tighter, honey, honey, sugar, sugar, yummy, yummy
CBS and Warner Brothers, RCA and all the others"

... well, I guess that's not actually in the song title, but they were on RCA records.

 

Queen - Let Me Entertaint You

Elektra and EMI

 

Nellie McKay "Clonie" - "should have signed with Verve instead of Sony..."

She was on Columbia/Sony at the time - the song was on her debut album, the first double debut by a female artist.

And she eventually did sign with Verve.

 

"Buy Chiswick Records" by the Radio Stars off of Songs for Swinging Lovers on Chiswick

 

Frank Zappa "Titties And Beer" (from 'In New York") - "I was signed to Warner Brothers for 8 f****ing years!"

 

He didn’t even want to sign with Columbia. He was looking for that thin, wild Mercury sound...

 

I like Lightworker’s post more...

 

"Sugar Hill" - Dolly Parton (Halos & Horns, 2002)
