Thread Name: Yes We Can video & other similar videos
Subject: RE: Yes We Can video & other similar videos
Here's another music/political video for your listening pleasure. This video is NOT like will. i. am's Yes We Can video. But several other music/political videos I've posted as examples in this thread also are not like that ground breaking video. The ties that binds all of the videos in this thread together are that they are music/political videos and they promote the candidacy of Senator Barack Obama.

Obama Everywhere in Pennsylvania (band version)

"Earl Pickens and the Band Named Thunder (& friends) (& pets)come out swingin' and singin' for the things Obama's bringin'."

There is also a YouTube video of this song with Earl Pickins singing by himself.

At one point in this rockin' country-western song that lists the names of Pennsylvania's cities and towns, the lead guitarist/singer says "Can we take a guitar solo? Yes we can. Yes we can." Great job!
And as a resident of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania I'm impressed at the singer's ability to list the names of so many Pennaylvania cities and towns, many of which aren't that easiest to pronounce let along sing.
