The SoBros Hot Minute: Elvira

Share This Post

It’s been 38 years since The Oak Ridge Boys released their hit song “Elvira.” Ever since, it’s taken the world of country music by storm. I dare say it’s one of the all time classics. I hummed it along as a kid – really digging the childish MMMMMBOPAMOWMOW sounds when I was in elementary school.

But, now that I am a fully developed and grown ass man at 32 years old, I’m looking back at this hit single with a bit of skepticism.

Like every famous musical act of the 70s and 80s, I’m pretty sure now that The Oak Ridge Boys used subliminal messaging to promote the devil.

That’s right, folks. We’ve been lied to our entire lives (unless you were born before this song was released in 1981). The Oak Ridge Boys were trying to promote sex in their tune “Elvira.”

You might be wondering why I’d say such a thing and that’s simple. It’s all in the lyrics. They may seem harmless enough on the surface, but when you really dive into it, it’s a song about fucking in a public cafeteria where other people could potentially see. Disgusting.

That’s not what I stand for, and it’s not the message I think we should be passing on to our youth. Check out my full rant on the issue here:
