Submitted by ryanteaguebeckwith on 2009-05-01 15:39If North Carolina had an official rock song, what would it be?
Dome and our brother-in-blogging David Menconi opened up the lines for your suggestions earlier this week.
The top five suggestions, as judged by no particular standard, are:
* "Carolina in My Mind," by James Taylor: The hands-down frontrunner, a classic song with inoffensive lyrics and a secret darker edge.
* "Carolina Girls," by General Johnson and the Chairmen of the Board: The beach music classic that spawned a thousand "Best in the World" T-shirts.
* "Oh My Sweet Carolina," by Ryan Adams with Emmylou Harris: A touching duet about leaving the South from a guy who never visits.
* "Raleigh," by Rey Norteno: Perhaps a controversial pick with some, but few bands have sung so movingly about why they love Raleigh.
* "Wagon Wheel," by Old Crow Medicine Show: OK, so it's not rock either, but it's got to be in the running for neo-traditional bluegrass song.
Other suggestions after the jump.
