“Colorado Cool-Aid”
From Johnny Paycheck’s 1977 album Take This Job And Shove It. This album hit Number Two while the famous title track (written by David Allan Coe) was his sole number-one hit. This song, originally cut by Red Sovine (”Teddy Bear”) hit 50. Way things used to be, you couldn’t get Coors beer east of the Mississippi River. This is also the basis for Smokey & The Bandit so Coors was a big deal in the late ‘70s.

1: Various Artists // Keep on Truckin'
Keep on Truckin' Various Artists 1979, Realistic Records
America was big rig crazy in the mid-to-late ‘70s, as this novelty compilation attests. Released on Radio Shack’s in-house Realistic label, Keep On Truckin’ collects a hodgepodge of sides by trucker country stalwarts. There were dozens of similarly themed comps on the market at the time and while there isn’t anything particularly special about this one, it’s a fun representative of a forgotten fad.
Social and economic factors played their parts in moulding the figure of the long-haul trucker into the era’s diesel-powered avatar of individualism, but it wouldn’t be an American story without some help from the advertising world. Omaha-based ad man Bill Fries created the character of singing truck driver C.W. McCall for a regional series of television commercials hocking Old Home Bread. Fries provided talk-sung narration for the ads, in which the affable C.W. (a dead ringer for, uh, documentary film performer Steve Holmes) flirts with blonde waitress Mavis Davis over various buns, rolls, and cakes.
youtube
The spots were a local phenomenon, but even Fries was surprised when the cash-in singles he released as the C.W. character became national hits. By the time “Convoy” reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1975, trucker country was everywhere. (For context, this would be like if a 2000s Folgers commercial had sparked renewed interest in incest.)
In fairness, the account above is a bit of an oversimplification. Singers like Dave Dudley (who sounds kinda like Don Gibson and shows up twice on Keep On Truckin’) had been recording songs about truckers since at least the mid-1960s, and most of the best numbers here are by genre veterans. My fav is Dick Curless, a tough-looking one-eyed bastard with a bass-baritone to rival Johnny Cash. His strutting “Drag ‘Em Off the Interstate, Sock it to ‘Em, J.P. Blues” drips with condescension for crooked rural police, even pulling out a siren-mocking slide whistle during the chorus.
youtube
The most memorable tune, however, is “Teddy Bear’s Last Ride,” a deranged 1976 single by the otherwise unknown Diana Williams. Earlier that same year, Red Sovine had a major country hit with “Teddy Bear”, a maudlin story song about “a little cripple boy” whose trucker father had been killed in a highway accident. The lonely child turns to talking to random truckers over his CB radio for comfort. As you'd expect, after he gives his address out over the air dozens of them quickly descend upon his home to “ride little Teddy Bear” before his mother gets home. (He's delighted.)
Diana Williams’ hastily cut ‘sequel’ was written and recorded without Sovine’s involvement. She doubles down on the treacle by killing Teddy Bear off and depositing his corpse into a black mack truck that serves as a makeshift hearse. There’s something endearingly bald-faced about Williams’ attempt to ring out any last droplets Sovine’s original might have left hanging in the listener’s tear ducts.
youtube
Keep On Truckin’ throws in a song about a drag race between a diesel and a flying saucer, a Glen Campbell recording from 1962, and a heap of serviceable-at-worst ‘70s honky tonk in a Waylon Jennings vein. That’s something like the platonic ideal of a dollar bin darling. Honk if you’re lonesome tonight.

🖊🖊 + Hinata and Nadezdha 👀
HIIII MARI ANGEL <3 I hope ur doing well and had a lovely day/holiday!!!! THOSE ARE MY GIRLIESS <3 i missed them sm u know? i also FINALLY at last finished edgerunners (i started it a bit back and finished it at like 4am this morning asjknkd so good oh my god IT HURTT but it was the loveliest u know?) and i missed the babies <3
SEND A 🖊 + I WILL GUSH ABOUT MY OCS
🖊 - so funny story, but the man that hinata and oda were sent to zero on behalf of her great grandpops s*aburo..... was actually the man who ordained their wedding sansknksd. SO he was a priest right and one popular with the corpos that were employed by 'saka in NC. well, he started speaking ill of the company and selling company intel to their rivals when the employees would go to confession. so like..... he had to go u know? blah blah talk ill of the corp u get zeroed etc etc. they devised a genius plan to have him marry them, when she says "you may kiss the bride" they do of course buuuuut they also zero him in the process while he's distracted.. and they did just that! and it worked! hinata and oda yank out their mantis blades and the deed was done <3. every great wedding ends in someone getting flatlined right?
🖊 - so this second one will sort of be what i think in theory how she’ll be in phantom liberty? so if this is a post game thingy hideo (her charge and her and odas adopted son bc SOMEONE has to and it sure ain’t his brother yori sjzjhzhx) will be ceo as his brother is to step down and is put on house arrest in a time out bc of the coup ksjzjxhxh. if vika ends up having to take on ‘saka again it may mean that the besties turn into adversaries which would BREAK my heart but also be absolutely EHEM *nova* if the white widow and worlds coolest cyberninja faced off u know? ORR if it’s like during the main story i mean the besties in a spy thriller would so be siiiick u know? oda supporting the wife from the tower in the plaza like “thats my wife” ❣️😌 etc etc!
🖊 - YAY MARI U SAINT U I ADORE U SM I’ve been wanting to scream about her for literal years slzkxjxj she’s been around for a WHILE living in the head along with vika rent free with luxury room service <3 she was like a blob of like ✨vibes✨ like with the red aesthetic and the red hair for YEARS until i found the perfect fc and name? a little lore into her design color and symbolism is a HUUGE part of her character development and design? the way as growing up she wore a lot of neutrals and it was deliberate as she wished to be as out of sight as possible? then it was as if a switch flipped following a near depth experience in a deep dive into what was the pre data crash net. red is passionate it’s power it’s so much more and all what she wished to be. she became the red queen and faked her charismatic nature until she forgot where the old nadya ended and the red queen began. for the version of her she conveyed to the world and her true nature became one and the same. <3 lilith killed eve the day she became the red queen.
🖊 - OO okay this’ll be the fun one.. for this one we will be discussing! nadyas………. “lovers.” shes got three in her character arc that hold the most meaning to her both good and bad. those would be: y*orinobu (HUUGE) johnny (VERY) and r*ache (VERY and also painful!). if i for sure need to do a deep lore dive essay into the meaning of people in her life especially these three. but in essential the tropes to best depict them are for sure “mutual obsession inevitable downfall” for yori and nadya. “right person wrong time and rivals to lovers” for her and johnny. and! pain pain and suffering “tragic doomed lovers” for nadya and rachie <3
#teehehe i also get to test the new banners <3 BUT ANYWAYS TY FOR THE ASK AND FOR ASKING OF MY BABY#🌹: mari#d-vx#oc: hinata sanderson#oc: nadezdha sovin#leg.asks#leg.ocs#leg.txt#Ty ty dear and i hope ur doing well <3#i need to do a lore post I need to do it soon or if y’all are interested in asking of her in this i sure can kajsjxhx#Bc we will be here a WHILEE delving into the significance and symbolism and lore behind her skzjjxx#i need to write it down bc it’s EXTENSIVE and yes like the totally normal person I am i have kept it safe in the old noggin kajsjzh#BUT ANYWAY I HOPE U ENJOY ME YELLING ABOUT THE BABIES i missed them ✨😖#no but like when he flatlines rachie a part of her died with him u know? so! painnnn!#but also right person wrong time for johnny blah blah it’s about red string of fate inevitable down fall for her and y*ori etc etc <3#either way hinata will have fun in the new dlc and i am so excited to see what the game will throw at me for the besties <3#SPY THRILLLERRRR THEY SAY?? im sold im so sold#it should also be noted that nadya is one of the most prolific in her time and her Lilith sign in the net is regarded with divinity in the#net <3 rachie programmed all the daemons to have her signature in their code so they’ll never hurt her hehe <3 even the rogue ais see her as#one of their own <3#hinata and o*das wedding was both iconic and deadly and nothing could have been more perfect for them <4#*<3#they’re the icons they’re the moment etc etc i love them both <3#GODD THE NEW BANNERS CAME OUT SO CUTE ✨😖💌💌🥀
