Go Vols! University of Tennessee Knoxville! But I have to say, this is a pitiful version. It is a lively tune and sounds better with a couple of contry hicks and a banjo. And they got the words wrong. I've been listening to this song sixteen years. I know it by heart. They could have done better.
With all due respect, just because it's not what you're used to doesn't mean it sucked. Then again, I was at Disney when they had Mardi Gras at Pleasure Island and they got that wrong (I am originally from Louisiana)so I can kind of see what you're saying, but I still love this group!
I didn't say they as a group were a terrible group; the way they did the song, I thought, was bad. I LOVE many of their other tunes, but when it comes down to my high school's fight song, a song I've played many a time as a marching band member, I find it difficult to adjust to any other form besides what I've always heard and played.
BTW... thank you for being nice. I hate when people get all pissy.
@AngedeleCor I think they skipped a verse: "I once had a girl on rocky top, half bear other half cat / mean as a minx but sweet as a soda pop / I still dream about that."
We ALL owe a tip of the hat to ...THE OSBORNE BROTHERS!

Well like I said, I understand. It's like Mardi Gras. Other places try to have it, but you can't quite carry it off outside of Louisiana. No worries.
