LMC vs U2 - take me to a bongcloud above (lush remix)
Sex Pistols: Johnny says that your Queen is rotten
Transvision Vamp: I don't want your pawn honey, I want your King.
Jethro Tull: Aqualung beats Fischer
Hank Marvin and The Shadows: The chess life of Flingel Bunt
Britney Spears: chess in the trailer park
Pink: You really don't want to mate with me tonight
Bananarama: I want my King back [don't know what I have to do]
Bros: When will my chess be famous? [I can't answer that, when will I see my picture in the paper, I can't answer that. You suffer for your art, playing chess with hobos in the park...will I..wIll I ..will I...da da d da da]
Or the argument for playing over the board rather than internet chess was sublimely summed up in the classic Pushy Real Wood. Shalamar's tribute to a famous minor piece sacrifice with A Knight To Remember. Also when Iggy Pop stated that the equipment was leaving with him at the end of the game in My Board. And, although I am too old to know, Usher apparently had Off Your Chess relating to a period of disenfranchisement with it. Slightly more farcical is something by "30 seconds to mars" called Kings and Queens but I suspect they were just trying to get into this thread.
