I just got my new Porsche 911 and returned to the dealer the next day
complaining that I couldn't figure out how the radio worked. The salesman
explained that the radio was voice activated. "Watch this: " he said.
"Nelson!" The radio replied, "Ricky or Willie?" "Willie!" he continued. And
"On The Road Again" came from the speakers. I drove away happy, and for the
next few days, over time I'd say "Beethoven!" and I would get beautiful
classical music, and if I said "Beatles!" I would
get one of their awesome songs.
One day, a couple ran a red light and nearly creamed my new car, but I
swerved in time to avoid them. I yelled "ASSHOLES!" The French National
Anthem began to play, sung by Jane Fonda and Michael Moore, backed up by
John Kerry on guitar, Al Gore on drums and Bill Clinton on sax. Damn, I LOVE
this car!

Seems like it's last response was very appropriate to what you said 
It even found the version of the French National Anthem with all the appropriate "artists".
