"Sister, You Will Drive" - Saudi Band Releases "Born To Be Wild" Cover Celebrating Royal Decree Permitting Women to Drive A song titled "Sister, You Will Drive" celebrates the lifting of the ban on Saudi women driving. The song, to the tune of Steppenwolf's "Born To Be Wild," is performed by the Jeddah-based "Most Of Us" band, and contains lines such as "No more driver, Uber, or taxi to take you any place." Saudi musicians Hasan Hatrash, Khalid Sharani, Amro Hawari and Amir Abbas released the music video on YouTube to celebrate the new law, which should come into effect before June 2018, after Saudi King Salman bin 'Abd Al-'Aziz issued his decree on the matter on September 26, 2017.
