I came across a pretty good one. Name the two songwriters that have composed two different state songs.

It's tough enough coming up with one, can't imagine coming up with a dozen at a time.

That is a tough one, and that's coming from a guy who was 61-61 for correct answers on Jeopardy last night.

Foster also wrote, “Way Down in Alabama”, “Lou’siana Belle”, “Virginia Belle”, in addition to “Way down upon the Suwannee River” and “My old Kentucky Home.”

Good call on John Denver. I would have gotten Stephen Foster, but the second one was eluding me. I knew West Virginia but didn't know Colorado had adopted Rocky Mountain High.

Yes, with the legalization of marijuana here, "Rocky Mountain High" is a natural for our state song...

Did we both learn this at W. 168th St? You are, of course, my alpha Lion, correct.
It’s amazing just how much useless information is still rooting around in my head.
