Surely one of the skate-punk bands or Busted or something?

Lots of Pulp songs mention mum or dad.

Maybe anthony is using a narrow definition of pop. Still - am I right about Busted?

Slightly older examples:
Supergrass - Caught by the Fuzz
and
Bros - Drop the Boy

(Possibly the first time the latter 'jam' has ever been mentioned on ILM?)

what about "parents just don't understand?" and that cheap trick song.

That was like, 1974!

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 30 July 2004 11:41 (twenty-one years ago)

what about "papa don't preach"?

― J.D. (Justyn Dillingham), Friday, 30 July 2004 12:23 (twenty-one years ago)

or "mama" by the spice girls?
