Thanks Gargoyle.

I've seen the video of the song a few times on our national Australian weekend all night music show Rage. It's a catchy song with some funny elements in the video.

It's interesting that the song has created some social backlash as well after the Billboard decision to take it off their list because it didn't fit the country music criteria.

I hope Lil Nas X does well with his next songs.

I like the story of how
the profits arrived at I don't know what figure,
and Lil Nas X, in order to celebrate,
surprised Billy Ray Cyrus by buying him a Maserati.
