yes, this has been done before... but I can't find the thread.
I need to make a playlist of songs about NC... any suggestions?

James Taylor - Carolina in my mind. Incidentally I've been in NC so long that upon hearing the first few bars of this song my blood pressure goes through the roof and I start smashing things in the general direction of the radio until the awful noise stops.
Kinda like Hootie and the Blowfish back in the day, not a bad song, just overplayed.

Magnetic Fields - "Tar-Heel Boy", I guess Archers of Loaf - "White Trash Heroes" mentions the state fair Lots of Ben Folds songs have passing mentions of NC stuff
All great songs, but terrible suggestions 6/15/2010 9:41:02 PM |

the vocals are terrible
the lyrics are annoying at best
i could see enjoying a cover of it with some altered lyrics, as the song itself isn't awful
but the original version of it is just atrocious 6/15/2010 11:43:55 PM |

wagon wheel is a fine song
people are always tripping over themselves to be the first to hate anything that is popular
