Sweet Jags of Mine



The sports talk show I listen to in the morning put together a cover of "Sweet Caroline" called "Sweet Jags of Mine". The production values are a little ummm... rough, but it's fun. Dan Hicken, who also wrote the lyrics, sings with full-throated abandon and his enthusiasm makes up for the fact that he really can't sing. The Tony in the background is Tony Boselli. The song is about the upcoming Jags-Pats game so it has a short shelf life. Other "hits" include "Grady" (about DL Grady Jackson), to the tune of "Lady", "Tebow", to the tune of "Hey Jude", "Reggi-lution" to the tune of "Revolution" (about WR Reggie Williams), and "Jack and By-ron", to "Jack and Diane" of course. Oh and "Honolulu" to the tune of "Kokomo", I think, lobbying for Fred Taylor to go to the Pro Bowl. He's got a knack for these.

I'm not a Jaguars fan, as anyone who reads this blog knows, but I am this weekend. It's the duty of all red-blooded NFL fans to oppose the evil empire up in Foxboro.

Make sure you turn the volume down before playing.

You forgot Grady, and Honolulu. And it's Grady that's to the tune of Lady. Tebow is to Hey Jude, I think.

I sent them an email saying that they could have perhaps gotten karaoke versions of the songs to use, but I think it fits in with their show better to have Dan having to drown out the actual lyrics.

You're right about Tebow, I'll fix it. Yeah I thought about karaoke too, but I agree, part of the charm is the rough quality. The Framingham station did a response and their was more polished, but not as good.

Yeah, I heard that one, it sucked. They also picked a crappy song. It just didn't have near the same enthusiasm.

Most of the others sound plausible, but "Reggi-lution"? That's a stretch.

michelline said...

Actually Reggi-lution is pretty good.

"You say you want a Reggi-lution, well, you know, He's always open on the curl..."

Hehe! I listened to it here at work and forgot to turn it down. Man! But three developers came over to listen :)

I even put that in the post. This player doesn't have a way to preset the volume.

BTW, the best song like this ever is "What I Like About UConn".
