  • oh ok...actually no joke, Robbins Barstow is my grandfather. That's why I was wondering where you got the footage. Great video and great choice of music.

  • @suzannalcooper Well, hi! Have you seen your grandfather's movies on the Archive? They get shown around at home-movie festivals too. I'm glad you like the video. Your grandfather obviously has great love for the medium and it shows.

  • where did you get the footage?

  • @suzannalcooper Internet Archive and permission granted from Mr. Barstow. He's been making films for many years and they're stand-outs.

    What you're talking about (making this song the national anthem of New England after it breaks away from the union) is the premise of a song by my band The Very Most. Search for "The Very Most Jonathan Richman" since youtube won't let me put a link in.

  • @rcool101 Oakland, BITCH! ha

  • @TheOhioFishing Big D and the Kids Table

  • what is the ska version of this?

  • @rcool101 all over, but surely not in a white family's 1960s camping films... right?

  • @gbien So you came to find this song just to dump on Boston? Please. I wouldn't even drop a deuce in Toronto.

  • @gbien thumbs up for Tdot

  • @MPSh64inLowell

    You mean when New England secedes from the Union and becomes its own glorious republic and needs and anthem, this will be it?
