The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at You Know, That Thing Where.

It's when English (or Irish) musicians get all into "America" — U2 is a great example with all their MLK/Joshua Tree/Elvis stuff. Lots of Rolling Stones examples, but in "Miss You" where Mick Jagger starts feeling like a real New Yorker and talking about "Puerto Rican girls that are just dying to MEET CHOO." Duran Duran and the Rio album, especially "My Own Way" where Simon Le Bon starts scatting about "7up between Sixth and Broadway." And so forth.
