Song year: 1973 It feels like a sin to begin this list with any other song. If you’ve ever listened to classic rock radio, then it’s unlikely you missed out on this one. There are many many clichés associated with money, as you can see reflected in the lyrics of this song. Take these lines for example: “Money, so they say / Is the rootof all evil t...
Song year: 1973 The O’Jays’ “For The Love OfMoney” is a seven-minute epic, and the cynicism exhibited here seems to echo thatof Floyd’s. Either that, or this is a relativelyconservative and religious view of money, which it could be. But its references to stealing,robbing and cheating certainly serves to highlight how money can make people crazy. T...
Song year: 2003 My favorite Fountains Of Waynetrack, “Bright Future In Sales” is about a salesman who can’t stop drinking. It’sa catchy power pop anthem about white collar office workers. Is it a tribute? Is it asatire? That’s anybody’s guess. And, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a satire.You can’t put it passed Fountains Of Wayne. I guess you co...
Song year: 1976 Another unforgettable songabout money, ABBA’s “Money, Money, Money” asks what it would be like to be richand have money to throw around. Is there a bit of envy going onhere? Could be. To be fair, money can givepeople more options. The other side of it, however, is that money can alsobring bigger problems with it. So, I don’t know ho...
Song year: 1997 Note: The lyrics in thissong may not be appropriate for children. I don’t know about you, but I don’tfeel like this list would be complete without list late 90s hip hop anthem. This song was released posthumously, and features Puff Dady and Mase. The beat features samples of Diana Ross’ “I’m Coming Out.” And, wouldn’t you know it, t...
Song year: 1959 You might be more familiar withthe Flying Lizzards’ version, but this song originated with Motownsinger-songwriter Barrett Strong. And, there aren’t any hiddenmeanings in this song. It’s about wanting a lot of money. For what, only godknows. But for those timeswhen you wish you were rich then this is a good song to put on.
Song year: 1983 Here’s another song about moneyyou’re likely to have heard. This 80s dance hit is about ablue-collar woman and apparently it was based on an encounter Summer had with arestroom attendant. So, this is a tribute toeveryone who works hard every single day to earn a living wage. Turn it up!
Song year: 1986 Musically and lyrically, “Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots Of Money)” is a bit of an odd song. Apparently, the song is abouttwo “losers” who are scheming to make money (one who apparently has the brainsand the other the brawn). Songwriter Neil Tennant explained that the two are doomedto failure. Some fans viewed this as amaterialistic...
Song year: 1985 “Money For Nothing” by DireStraits has been on the receiving end of a lot of criticism and censorship inrecent years (but mostly because the song has been misunderstood). I think you can take the songat face value, but to go a little deeper, songwriter Mark Knopfler explainedthat it’s a song about a guy that worked at the hardware d...
Song year: 1969 Is there a single subject theoriginal pop group, The Beatles, didn’t cover? It would appear not, as theymake practically every list we make. “You Never Give Me Your Money” waswritten by McCartney shortly after he got married. Lennon and McCartney wereabout to lose control of Northern Songs, their publishing company. So, it’s fair to...

- Mo Money Mo Problems’ by the Notorious B.I.G. Biggie Smalls spent his career marveling at the wealth wrought by his hustle – the man had a Super Nintendo and a Sega Genesis – but in this mega-hit from his last album, the rapper was a bit more reflective about the spoils of his success.
- Can’t Buy Me Love’ by The Beatles. The Beatles’ songs about money output mostly focused on the negative side of money (see also, ‘Taxman’) but it was during the Fab Four’s boy-band heyday that they penned the ultimate anti-wealth song, lamenting the one thing that a wad of cash and sudden success couldn’t purchase: affection.
- C.R.E.A.M.’ by Wu-Tang Clan. Cash. Rules. Everything. Around. Me. Five words that anchor this highlight from the Clan's 1993 album 'Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)'.
- Everything Counts’ by Depeche Mode. Possibly the catchiest critique of capitalism ever recorded, ‘Everything Counts’ is an unmistakeable product of the early ’80s, with its squelchy synth bassline, lyrics about Thatcherite greed and duplicity, and music video set in West Berlin.
