I can't think of a specific song but I can say that I hate when radio ads do that shit.
There used to be a ad for an auto body repair, Maaco. Their ad would end with spelling out the name, but in the middle were horns honking, "M double A (Beep Beep) C O" Fucking hated that ad.
The fact that you remember this is exactly why they will keep doing it. Remember: ads are psychological warfare.
But he got the chain wrong :)
Alternate view: they hate the wrong chain, ergo the ad still worked.
I hate ads. And now hate Maaco & Aamco too.
Ads should be banned
Nah it was similarly-named Aamco.
"Double A (beep beep) M C O"
You're right, my mistake.
Shows what a shitty ad it was. It was so bad, I was boycotting an entirely different business.
