Music Friday: "Hammond Song"

Click HERE for an old song that I was introduced to by one of Oxford American's Southern Music issues a few years back.

It's "Hammond Song" by the Roches. It's a song that grows on you, and then you get addicted.

Is this about Hammond, LA? And if so, why would anyone write a song about Hammond, LA? A great song and a great trio nonetheless.

Yep, it's about Hammond, LA. I've never been there.

The song has siren-like quality. Sirens as in Greek mythology (for readers who don't have a liberal arts education).
