A lawmaker in Montana wants an official state rock song, and Democratic Rep. Jacob Bachmeier wants it to be “Hippy Hippy Shake,” originally written and recorded by Montana native Chan Romero, recorded in 1959. The Beatles issued a cover back in 63, but most people today would identify with The Georgia Satellites version. Montana has a state song, a state song and a state lullaby. I looked to see what the official song for Tennessee is, and there are several. 10 to be exact. There’s the first official song, “My Homeland Tennessee,” followed by “When it’s Iris Time,” My Tennessee,” Tennessee Waltz,” “Rocky Top,” Tennessee,” “The Pride of Tennessee,” “A Tennessee Bicentennial Rap,” “Smoky Mountain Rain,” and “Tennessee,” by John R. Bean was adopted as an official song of Tennessee in 2012. What should Tennessee’s Official Rock Song Be? Suggestions?
