Trivia/Info

  • From the State Songs liner notes:
The Official State Bird of the Magnolia State is the Mockingbird, which is also the state bird of Arkansas, Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. The mockingbird mimics the calls of other birds, so maybe those other states don't realize they're all dealing with the same bird.
  • During shows, the sax part was instead performed by an accordion.
