🐐🎧🎶 Electric Avenue: The Title Insurance Remix

Turn up the bass and follow the title search straight into the power grid with this original WTF Radio Parody by the Wicked Title Forum

Turn up the bass and follow the title search straight into the power grid.

Electric Avenue is an upbeat 1980s reggae-pop and new-wave parody built on a driving, danceable groove, with syncopated bass, clipped offbeat guitar, bright analog synth stabs, and punchy electronic drums. The lyrics take on the strange new world of energy transactions, where solar farms, wind projects, battery storage, transmission corridors, mineral rights, easements, and long-term infrastructure agreements all collide in the title file.

It is catchy, ridiculous, and alarmingly accurate.

Listen, share, and send it to the person who starts twitching every time someone says “subsurface rights.”

🎤 Lyrics: Electric Avenue — Title Insurance Remix

[Verse 1]
Now in the street there is solar power
Wind on the hill, growing by the hour
Battery site, transmission tower
But who owns what beneath the flowers?

Mineral rights
Out of sight
Old easement
Not quite right

Lease on lease
Piece by piece
Everybody wants
A clean policy

[Chorus]
We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
And then we’ll take the title higher
We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
With every lease, line, pole and wire

[Verse 2]
Project coming, money on the table
But the access rights are looking unstable
Long-term lease—will the lender be able
To insure the deal and keep it bankable?

Solar farm
Raise alarm
Pipeline crossing
Through the parcel

Subsurface
Who comes first?
One bad exception
And the deal gets worse

[Chorus]
We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
And then we’ll take the title higher
We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
With every lease, line, pole and wire

[Break]
Oh no—
Encroachment

Oh no—
Split estate

Oh no—
Who signed the easement?

Oh no—
We close at eight

[Verse 3]
New York rules and Texas changes
Energy title comes in many ranges
Nontraditional rights and exchanges
Nothing about this deal is basic

ALTA thirty-six
Pick your mix
Project coverage
Built to fit

One to two
Experts too
July sixteenth
They’ll walk you through

[Final Chorus]
We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
And then we’ll take the title higher
We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
From underground rights to overhead wire

We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
Come learn before the deal catches fire
We’re insuring down on Electric Avenue
Title insurance for the energy buyer


Stay Wicked,
Cheryl
