Funny thing, I first heard that song when I was an undergrad at William and
Mary (in Williamsburg, VA), they played it all the time on the classic rock
stations there. Then one summer I had a job back home in Michigan where the
boss would only turn the radio to country or Rush Limbaugh (and I learned
early on that, much to my surprise, I preferred country), and they played
Aimee on the country station there. So I guess it just depends.
