Watching the Hockey game in Sweeden this AM, and they played John Denver's classic "West Virginia-Take me Home Country Roads."
Why? As a southern boy living in Virginia, WV is the poorest representation of our country. Still full of Inbreeding (look up the Whittaker family), and where they blasted the beautiful Appalachian Mountains for mining. And that song is more about Virginia than WV (Lyrics matter, Shenandoah & Blue Ridge Mountains isn't in WV it's VA!) https://www.blueridgeoutdoors.com/go-outside/country-roads-west-or-western-virginia/?amp
Now these poor Sweeds will want to go to West VA.....and they will be disappointed. Find another song to rep our country please. /End RANT
