Source: Yahoo News
After meeting Rick Santorum a few days before Oklahoma's Super Tuesday primary, Tulsa resident David Harris had an idea: his musically inclined family should compose a campaign song for the candidate.
By Monday morning, the Harris family bandknown as First Lovehad written and recorded "Game On," an infectious, catchy two-and-a-half minute tribute to Santorum with lead vocals from Camille, 20, and Haley, 18. The Harris family shot a music video outside their church and debuted the song on YouTube.
The Harris parents are both pastors at the Jubilee Christian Center. They have eight children between the ages of 5 and 22, who have been homeschooled and enrolled at a religious academy. Like Rick Santorum, their political convictions are deeply influenced by their Christian faith.
Camille composed the beginning of the refrain ("we've finally got a man/who will stand for wrong and right" in the car after meeting Santorum, and the family pieced together the rest of the lyrics from campaign talking points. The result includes such lines as "there will be justice for the unborn / factories back on our shores."

I'm betting on the oozing wholesomeness and nutso lyrics -- God Gave the Bill of Rights?

(44,577 posts)If that's going to be your lyrical "hook," you've got to throw it down like a gauntlet -- with a riff that's loud and nasty and aggressive, not demure and twangy and acoustic. It's precisely why they're literally getting laughed off the field!

(28,082 posts)That makes no sense. Somthing like "Stand for right" or "stand for right against wrong" or "stand against wrong for right". Because it's Santorum we could say "so right he's wrong"- but how does one stand for wrong & right?

(42,290 posts)Because Santorum has been so OBSESSED by sex issues that he hasn't mentioned a WORD about how he'll do that, exactly.
