On That Note : Royals

[CycloneRulzzz]

Welcome back to On That Note, a weekly music series hosted by @MeanDean, @cyclones500 and myself.

Last week's topic was More Cowbell! Review it here:

This week our theme is looking at songs and lyrics relating to the theme of Royalty i.e. (King, Queen, Princess, Prince, etc.) We aren't looking for song by artists with a royal title in their name. Obviously there are many songs that include references to titles of royals and you are free to post them. If you could find songs that have a direct tie or are about royalty that would be even better.

November 1963, when they were still pretty much unknown in the U.S., the Beatles do a tune they learned from an American band: The Isley Bros.

Never really had the patience to listen to this one and I've heard better recordings but this video is interesting:


This is better especially if you read the translated lyrics:

First heard this song listening to the Beeker Street program out of Little Rock AK late at night. They played a lot of deep cuts and little known artists. Bought a number of albums from listening to that show, including this one. I really liked that the DJ would announce the title and artist before AND after a song.

Most of the ones that first come to mind are already posted. Except this one

Oh, and this one. Kind of obscure:

I can never think of "King of the Road" without remembering the Answer Song, Queen of the House, by Jody Miller. We old timers remember the answer song as a thing.

There was "Get A Job" followed by "Got a Job"
"Oh Carol" (written by Neil Sedaka for Carole King followed by "Oh Neil" written/sung by Carole King) Lots more I can't think of now.

This is awful, but does meet the subject matter criterion.

I'm saying a Sultan is royalty. Sort of like a king. So bear with me on this one.
