Sheryl Crow's answer to Kid Rock's Senate run with a new song

http://www.cnn.com/2017/07/29/entertainment/sheryl-crow-kid-rock-song-trnd/index.html

(CNN)For Grammy award-winning artist Sheryl Crow, inspiration comes from everywhere, even the most random tweet.

This month, Kid Rock announced he was running for Senate, drawing mixed reviews. One Twitter user decided to drag Crow into the debate.

"Oh man, @SherylCrow must be rolling in her grave right now ," user @TunaCatsup tweeted Friday about Kid Rock's Senate run.

Crow, who is very much alive and promoting her latest album, quickly shot back: "Dude. I'm still alive."

~~~~~~~~~~

The exchange drew thousands of likes and retweets. Crow drew inspiration from it, and grabbed her guitar.

"In the studio today & I saw I'd be "rolling in my grave" -- inspired me to write a song "Dude, I'm Still Alive!," she wrote in a tweet accompanied by video of her performance.

Has actually been a moderate Republican for a long time and is not the stupid charahe plays on stage.

Sheryl knows it and is pointing it out in this song.

Pretty cool actually and I personally would like nothing more than a opposition party that was reasonable. This freak show we have now has to go. Bring on kid rock.
