Dear Lemmy,

This adorable lady is Gravy. There was a song I was able to play for her on the Internet that I can't find anymore. Maybe because the rapper Yung Gravy, but he doesn't help either way.

I will type out the lyrics that I remember. "Gravy is good, Gravy is great. Gravy is good when you put it on a plate....roo toot roo tee too toot. I'll drink Gravy outta my boot....had a bad day? That's okay have some gravy and make it go away." There was also a person talking about being diagnosed with a gravy deficiency.

It was a 'local radio station type' of song that I saw on youtube. I don't remember much more. Sorry. I've been trying to search it, but it's getting harder and harder to search for information on the Internet.

I found a Facebook video with part of it by searching for ' "gravy is good" "gravy is great" ' but no song name, bad quality, and online recognisers gave false positives. Here is the extracted sound, maybe it will help someone remember: https://voca.ro/1nEGIMlFFWIS

Ah so its some kind of remix of the chainsmokers' selfie maybe some kind of SoundCloud rapper

The riff is closer to PSY - Gentlemen, which TRBoom caught. But Chainsmokers also ripped PSY so... it at least dates it to around 2012 when that sound was completely inescapable.
