Song of the day: Dandy Warhols- Bohemian Like You

In 2000, the Dandy Warhols released their new single. Courtney Taylor-Taylor, the singer of the band, wrote the song when he looked through the window of his apartment and saw a woman pull up in her car to the traffic lights. The first release was not a hit, and even after a tour, it did not make it to the charts. When the song was used in a commercial, however, it became a number 5 hit in the UK. Enjoy

The song is about Joplin asking the Lord to buy her a Mercedez Benz, a color TV and a night at the town.
