This e-mail just came into the radio station here is Sequim and they forwarded it on to me. I really had to laugh!
Greetings from Victoria,
I listen to you both most Fridays when I am home. Just heard you playing “You Belong in Sequim” and thought that you would like to know that I was recently in Toronto and heard “You Belong in Sequim” when shopping in a Home Depot store. I’ll bet that I was the only one in the store that knew where Sequim is, made me feel like I was at home.
@flutterbysmom he wasn't from Sequim though, he liked the area and gave them the land for the marina. I know a Sequim resident won the gold medal at the Olympics in the 80's for shooting...maybe he's the local celebrity?
The words had to be modified this year because our rival PA (Port Angeles) had a 6-0 football season until they played us. So when Rachel sings it live these days she sings "but PA football we'll beat you again, and beat them we did 41-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to everyone for making this song so popular and to KSQM for playing it on your station, making it your #1 requested song!
oops- I tried to cut and paste as it was posted but I doubled up in my second to the last reply. Also, I didn't know my replies would appear in ascending order, but if you want to see the lyrics as I found them, check out - sequimspecials(dot)com/You_Belong_In_Sequim.pdf
YOU BELONG IN SEQUIM Song based on Taylor Swift’s “You Belong With Me” “You Belong in Sequim” Lyrics by Robin Hall - You’ve lived in Sequim your whole life growing up You wanna get out but you know that you are stuck Cause inside you know that you will probably die here Now don’t you fret and don’t you make a frown It could be worse it’s better than Port Townsend With all the hippie-tree-huggers you won’t find here (continued in the reply below)
@promiskept We’ve got elk herds, just look out your window Want to loose your money we got a casino Sequim has a hold so tight that you’ll find, Your only want to leave during lavender time. If you want to see what you’ll look like when you are older Just look around on any street corner And you’ll see What you will be Driving down our streets our biggest battle If you can drive in Sequim than you can drive in Seattle Our biggest flaw We don’t follow traffic law
@promiskept If you’re out in town And it’s really late at night The sidewalks all roll up You can’t even grab a bite The sun shines in our sky All around us it’s in bloom Remember what Sequim is It’s God’s waiting room Why can’t you see that Sequim’s the place that really knows you If you’re out in town And it’s really late at night The sidewalks all roll up You can’t even grab a bite The sun shines in our sky All around us it’s in bloom Remember what Sequim is It’s God’s waiting room
@promiskept Why can’t you see that Sequim’s the place that really knows you Your heart is here and lives inside your soul within You belong in Sequim Standin’ round outside our local Safeway Nothin going on even in P.A. Bored, oh we’re so bored Lots of churches praise the Lord You belong in Sequim You belong in Sequim Have you ever thought it’s home deep within You belong in Sequim You belong in Sequim
Great video, love the words. Been here in Sequim for 17 years and I can relate ROTFL... Very good Rachel, you have a great voice... I hate to plug the video but if anyone needs Custom Cabinets, Murphy beds or Granite counter tops come see Joe over at Tim's Custom Cabinets off Woodcock lol... And now back to our regularly scheduled program lol.
Sorry I went to reply to your last comment and accidentally deleted it!!! Thanks for the kind words. She was actually sick when she sang this which makes it even more amazing. Lost her voice for a few days and still got this out!

@promiskept
Sequim’s got round-a-bouts and Irrigation Queens
Remember when the crosswalks doubled as putting greens
Don’t dream about the day when you leave cause you’ll find
That what you’re looking for will be here for all time
Why can’t you see that Sequim’s the place that really knows you
Your heart is here and lives inside your soul within
You belong in Sequim
You belong in Sequim

You can walk from west to east in no time at all
From Railroad Bridge to Carrie Blake to play ball
Sittin’ on a park bench dedicated to a local Sequim celebrity
Our stadium lights, they light up this whole town
When they shine in Sequim, we all come from all around
Our rivals claim we’re not better than them
But PA football you were 0 and ten!
