Hey Red Wings die hards I found a great song by Michigan Alternative Rockers ThreePeace called "Hockeytown - Lets Go Red Wings"! The song jams and unlike all the others I have heard this one actually covers the history of the wings and the different eras! It Rocks. The band is allowing free downloads from their site, it says it is for a limited time. Here is the link and the lyrics! Awesome!

Hockeytown – Lets Go Red Wings
Lets Go Red Wings
Lets Go Red Wings
Lets Go Red Wings
Lets Go Red Wings
Back in the 50’s it all came around,
The Red Wings were lead by
Lindsay, Abel and Howe
The Production Line with Sawchuck
Was cranking it down,
Setting the tradition
Here in Hockeytown.
Chorus
Calling us the “Dead Wings”
Tried to bring us down.
Until Bingo Bango
Wiped away the frown.
Over to the Joe for a new go around.
Restore the faith
Here in Hockeytown
Chorus
Bringing back the glory
It was Stevie Y,
With the assistance of
The Russian Five.
Over in Chicago they tried
To hold us down,
Tally 3 more cups,
Here in Hockeytown.
Solo Chorus
Solo Verse
Lidstrom, Datsyuk,
Zetterberg and the Mule.
Take the NHL back to school.
Hoist the Cup, Carry it around,
One more time,
Here in Hockeytown.
Chorus
A young boy is skating
And he carries the dream.
All the scouts say he’s
The best they’ve seen.
He will be the next
To wear the crown.
As he lights em up,
Here in Hockeytown.
