New Song Released: ‘Beloved Ohio, You’re My Home’ by Buckeyes Wire

Every once in a while in the course of my job, I receive submissions aimed at grabbing the attention of Ohio State fans, but the majority of them don’t hold much interest and are quickly dismissed. However, there are rare instances where something truly stands out, and that’s precisely what occurred recently.A remarkable new song titled “Beloved Ohio, You’re My Home” has been penned by Steven E. Wilson, the talented lyricist and producer behind Steven E and the Chagrin Valley Rockers. Upon listening to this song, I was immediately struck by its infectious energy. With its bluesy, southern rock vibe and its focus on all things Ohio, including the Indians (Guardians), the state’s geography, and, naturally, our beloved Ohio State Buckeyes, it’s a tune that resonates deeply. The lyrics even include a cheeky reference to “forgetting about the Maize and Blue.” In summary: it’s a fantastic piece of music that I thoroughly enjoyed, and I believe you will too.Wilson has expressed a sincere desire to have this song played at an OSU football game, possibly during the iconic Ohio State/Michigan matchup. The image of over 100,000 fans enthusiastically chanting “forget about the Maize and Blue” on a chilly November game day is truly captivating. Let’s work together to make this dream a reality.I invite you to listen to the song for yourself. While I don’t stand to benefit from sharing it, I simply couldn’t resist spreading the word about such an outstanding musical creation. Wilson has even generously provided the full lyrics for your reading pleasure.Well done, Wilson, and kudos to Steven E and the Chagrin Valley Rockers for their excellent work. I can’t help but envision the electrifying atmosphere that would come from hearing this song blasting within the ‘Shoe stadium on the banks of the Olentangy River. Let’s make it happen.
