Yes !!! Just thinking Shake It Off was my home state’s(Rhode Island,Taylor has a home there) DNC song. My current state, Florida,was Tom Petty’s, I Won’t Back Down.Minor details…your lyrics resonate!
Tom was no Republican. His lighting & staging director (who invented theatrical stage lighting for rock concerts) was a good friend of mine, so I knew Tom too till they broke up.
Link below gives you the relationship to each DNC song and state.Tom Petty was born and raised in Florida.He passed away from an accidental overdose ~ 5+ years ago.I’m not sure about his party but something tells me maybe he wasn’t a Republican .I thought Won’t Back Down was appropriate for Florida !
Maybe I’ll post it on my Substack and do a voice over or something. Maybe. 🤔
