George Strait is a common subject of the "classic country artist name drop," which is a staple of modern top 40 country music where the narrator of the song makes reference to listening to some classic country artist (despite the fact that most modern top 40 country stations don't play classic country records).   

The George Strait name drop is so common someone put together this audio compilation of references to the man in several dozen country (and one rap) songs:
