"Carmen Ohio" after Victory 9/27/2008 (High Quality)

The Ohio State Alma Mater, played by the OSU Marching Band after victory against Minnesota Golden Gophers. I was sitting in AA-deck, Row 3 in this game. #14 Ohio State vs Minnesota 9/27/2008.

"Carmen Ohio"
(Alma Mater)

Oh come let's sing Ohio's praise
And songs to Alma Mater raise
While our hearts rebounding thrill
With joy which death alone can still
Summer's heat or winter's cold
The seasons pass the years will roll
Time and change will surely (truly) show
How firm thy friendship ... O-HI-O!

People OUTSIDE the Ohio State Family have NO IDEA how symbolic this event is. When Tressel started having the Team Sing "Carmen Ohio" to the Band and Fans after a Game it took on even more significance. The words to Carmen Ohio are very powerful and enlightening themselves, as they basically cover the cycle of Life. Very inspiring!

This is the same tune as my HS alma mater but with different words. Our fight song is the same too, and I also live in Ohio, lol.

This song is really a church hymn that someone like Fannie Crosby could have written

Those people who say they are buckeye fans are not really buckeye fans unless they can sing the words to Carmen Ohio. And no, the last word does not count.
