Megan Hickey should cover Madder Rose's Waiting for Engines with that lap steel and give that tune the new life it deserves. If we can't get Mary Lorson back to sing it, Megan will do just fine. I can't even find a video of the original- what a shame!!
Love you, love this song. I live in Oregon. I read through the discussion around pronunciation below. Just wanted to let you know people here do take it seriously. Or-y-gun is the accepted pronunciation. Saying "gone" is quickly corrected here.
Dude, I lived in Salem for 22 years born and raised! I don't know, maybe it's just you or something, but it's totally been pronounced "Or-ghun" when I was growing up! No disrespect though.
just so you know, people who are from Oregon pronounce it "Or-gun", not "Or-ih-gun". It's a bit of a known fact, we always give people from out of state a hard time for pronouncing it like that. Anyone who has lived here pronounces it "Or-gun".

Dude. I lived in Portland for 18 years. Or-gun is a part of your body.

I downloaded this album on iTunes purely for the reason that Regina Spektor was on it. I stumbled across this track and it's amazing!
Thank you for uploading this video.
5 Stars!

You'd think if they were singing a song about a state they'd learn how to pronounce it correctly. (Or-ih-gun)

I'm so glad you performed this when you were in L.A.! I can't wait to see you back here at the El Rey!!!
