Mellencamp Newsletter: Watch Grandview Video / Perfect in '76 Documentary

[sharonc]

John's new video, for his latest release, "Grandview" premiered live on PARADE.com today!  "Grandview" is about having a dream and staying connected to your dream, no matter how big or how small,” Mellencamp tells PARADE. “It’s your dream and your responsibility to make the dream come true.”

The black-and-white video showcases Mellencamp’s slick delivery with McBride’s powerhouse vocals — both dripping in heartland coolness. “Just an old country boy, wearing my OshKosh boots/ Walk by the trailer factory, every day on my way to school/ Early on in life the only thing I want to do/ Is buy me a trailer and move it down to Grandview,” Mellencamp sings in the opening verse.



SHOWTIME DOCUMENTARY PERFECT IN '76 - NARRATED BY JOHN PREMIERES MARCH 10TH Perfect In '76 is a Showtime documentary that features a closer look into Bob Knight and Indiana University’s perfect 1975-76 Men's basketball season -- the most recent undefeated season in college basketball.
