ABC has a song titled simply, "Minneapolis."
As does Prince.
M p l(l) s
I used 2 play the gig at archie’s bunker
Then I up and joined the jeffersons
I was in a band with lenny kravitz’s mama (your mother)
Friday night was good every now and then
Now I’m old and doin’ so much better (so much better)
Sellin’ the wax out the back o’ my subaru
Now I cut this groove with a group called minneapolis
(minneapolis)
In this here groove, they know just what 2 do, do
Chorus:
Mpls funkin’ house from east 2 west
Mpls funkin’ (shut up)
Mpls - clinton listen, a on test
Mpls funkin’ (shut up)
(funkin’)
I don't know why I find it so hilarious, but I do....
Don't know the song, but I'm looking for something that would make people WANT to visit... stupidity not being something I'd fly and stay in a hotel to view when I can get the garden variety so easily. ;)
Oh, it's not about Texas being stupid. It's about the old "We have the biggest everything" deal, so you get lines like
Our accents are the drawliest, our howdies are the y'alliest
and
By God we're so darn proud to be from Texas - yahoo!
Even of our pride we're proud and we're proud of that pride, too
It's pretty great.
Our guitars are the twangiest, our guns are the keblangiest
Heh, now that I can get behind.
The song for Texas should be "Beers, Steers, and Queers" by the Revolting Cocks.
"Mardi Gras Mambo"?
One of my friends is nicknamed Mambo, after dancing repeatedly with a drunk who kept said song playing on the jukebox for 20 minutes. Mama Rosa's, NOLA, Mardi Gras '95.
Good times.
Memphis theme song would have to be BB King.
And, if we go to Memphis, y'all can't tell my family cuz they'd want me to spend time with them. Not that I don't like them, but if it's F2F weekend, I want to spend time with y'all.
Also, a drawback to Memphis is that the cheapie airlines like SW don't fly there.
I agree w/Ginger about Atlanta. It's East coast not Midwest.
I think it should have Baby got Back.
I think that's brilliant!
Can I nominate "Baton Rouge"? Cause I love that song.
(sticks head in)
Is Sting's "Moon Over Bourbon Street" too kitsch?
(withdraws head quickly)
