Keep the song, but change the lyric...(Take Me Home)


Recommended Posts

I liked the fact that REA played John Denver's song Take Me Home last night, but I would l love it if REA switched the lyrics on the scoreboard to say "North Dakota" instead of "West Virginia"...or maybe have the sound person turn that part of the song down, and have everyone yell "North Dakota"...

Somebody please make this happen because that is a fun song for the arena.

Songs crowds love to sing always work. I was at Ohio State vs Michigan football game when they played Sweet Caroline as the fans rushed the field. 110,000 singing it at once was pretty cool. 
 

not sure what other songs fit the bill

Funny, I thought the exact same thing last night during this song.

I like this!  I happen to know the music man.  I have planted a seed.

To me it would be just like doing Journey and instead of South Detroit say south Grand Forks.  Just doesn't fit with the song, same with Take Me Home.

I assume they need permission from the owner of the copyright and then may be limited in the changes they can make.  Any intellectual property lawyers here?

I currently reside in WV since relocation in 2015 from the upper Midwest.  From a boots on the ground perspective, let the WV folks keep Country Roads.
