Chevy TV "song" (?)
what is the song that is featured in the current Chevy adverts on TV. It goes something like "nothing for nothing.. _______ you gotta have something", anyone?

Haven't seen the commercial, but it sounds like it could be "Nothin From Nothin" by Billy Preston. Does it have kind of a mid-70's funk/R&B thing going?
Great song. First 45 I ever owned!

Nothing from Nothing by Billy Preston. It was a hit in about 1973 or 1974. Billy was the organ player on the last of the Beatles albums and passed away a couple of years ago.

I know I've heard that before. I think it was on an episode of South Park, but I'm not sure.
