'' ( the first line of Domino 's 1950s version of `` Blueberry Hill '' ) in reference to pretty girls he dated or wanted to date. Joe Edwards ' restaurant Blueberry Hill, on the Delmar Loop in St. Louis, Missouri, where Chuck Berry frequently played, is named after the song. The Far Side, a comic written by Gary Larson, features a comic parodying the lyrics of this song. A man is talking in a phone booth on top of a hill named `` Blueberry Hill. '' He says into the phone `` Norm ? This is Mitch... You were right -- I found my drill. '' The parody is of the line `` I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill. '' Prime Minister of Russia Vladimir Putin made a cover performance of the song on December 10, 2010 before an audience of international film and television celebrities, in support of a charity for ill children. Videos of his performance quickly went viral worldwide. References Jump up ^ `` Blueberry Hill Work ID : 320068128 -- Writers ''. ACE Repertory. Retrieved April 14, 2018.
