I am sure we have a member around here that will still feel compelled to impeach Eric's loyalties. It certainly won't be me, and never was.

Re: Eric Church's recollections of the Michigan game
I'm not, country is trash. I think it's cool that Eric and Luke are out there doing big things, but at the end of they day they're still in one of the worst genres out there.Saint3333 wrote:Still upset we didn't keep his song Outsiders as part of our intro.

Re: Eric Church's recollections of the Michigan game
This leads me to believe there is HD footage of the game..... I wonder if it's the entire game and when/if that will ever be available.

They’re the in crowd, we’re the other ones
It’s a different kind of cloth that we’re cut from
We let our colors show, where the numbers ain’t
With the paint where there ain’t supposed to be paint
That’s who we are
That’s how we roll
The outsiders, The outsiders
Anyone that puts Eric and Luke in the same sentence doesn't understand music.

Re: Eric Church's recollections of the Michigan game
Agreed. I really liked it, the blue collar meaning of the song, and the fact that the writer/performer is an alum.Saint3333 wrote:Still upset we didn't keep his song Outsiders as part of our intro.

I don't like country because it's formulaic and melodically unimaginative. From my point of view, you don't understand music because you enjoy country, one of its most dumbed down genres. I've given Eric a listen several times, I keep hearing he's not like the other guys (pickup trucks, moonlight, etc), but to me he's close enough.

Re: Eric Church's recollections of the Michigan game
You seem to enjoy the beat of music more than the words used and the meaning of them. If you have kids, go listen to Church's "three year old", then get back to me. If you don't it probably won't mean much to you, too simple of a melody or something.NO.2 wrote:Both of them went to App...Saint3333 wrote:Listen to the lyrics - it was a great intro song.NO.2 wrote:I'm not, country is trash.

It was rebroadcast in HD on the Big10 Network several times. I used to have the HD version on my DVR until it died. Now I only have the 480p version on DVD.
Re: Eric Church's recollections of the Michigan game
Only my truck radio would pick up the game whole family tailgating in the driveway. The WHOLE neighborhood knew when we won.
No2 I would guess only listens to hip hop with its deep meaningful lyrics with a little electronica mixed in. No doubt country has changed but still has a few real talents.

Re: Eric Church's recollections of the Michigan game
A couple diamonds in the rough with today's pop country.... but the real country music of the day is alive and well, just not "mainstream." Its called "Red Dirt." Check it out on Pandora. Great stuff.

"Anyone that puts Eric and Luke in the same sentence doesn't understand music."
But...you put "Eric" and "Luke" in the same sentence! hahahhahah.
I am not making a statement on music that I have never heard, just the wording of the sentence which made me laugh.
Cheers!

Re: Eric Church's recollections of the Michigan game
Side note, when he was a freshman at App, Luke Combs auditioned and got into an Acapella group I was in. Oddly enough he was our go to for rap solos on a couple songs. I had the pleasure of singing with him for a couple years and invited him to his very first App "game", fan fest.
Appalachian State, Better than your school since 1899!!!!
