The Rebel Black Dot Songs o' Yesterday: Go Blue!


Montag, 25. November
Sufjan Stevens, "Say Yes! to Michigan!" from Sufjan Stevens Presents… Greetings from Michigan, the Great Lake State (Mike Papa Wolverine)

&

Marvin Gaye, "I Heard It through the Grapevine" from Motown 1's (Mike Papa Whiskey)

Commentary: Last Saturday (23 November), after the hated Buckeyes' victory over the ferocious Nittany Lions, the former's cretinous fans broke out into that sweet little ditty, "I Don't Give a Damn for the Whole State of Michigan." Stay classy, Columbus. So, this week, we here @ The Secret Base shall fête sacred Michigan, highlighting both songs about the State of Michigan & songs from the State of Michigan, for the State of Ohio has nothing in its whole benighted history than can hold a candle to the brilliance of Motown.

Ohio is where happiness goes to die. Go Blue!
