Tennessee orange

I listened with a little bit of melancholy but I smiled the whole time.

I was melancholic because I couldn’t get over thinking about the way a person can give up all and everything they once believed in for another because of the way they make them feel. I smiled because I actually thought it was sweet.

Tennessee Orange is a song by Megan Moroney.

It’s a song about college football. In the song, she tells her folks how she had ditched her Georgia ways for some guy’s Tennessee thing.

She sings a lot of confessions about the many ways she has disappointed them and finishes with; “I’m wearing Tennessee Orange for him” after each verse.

It is unusual for a person to totally switch sides from one club/group to the other… Like an Arsenal fan suddenly becoming a Manchester United fan, or Lakers fan suddenly loving Celtics…

… But I guess love can make a person do this.

Love can make a person do a lot of things they never imagined they would.

It’s the reason Bulldog red doesn’t seem too appealing anymore and now she’s wearing Tennessee Orange for him.
