On the Rocks, the University's all-men a cappella group, finished the year strong with a fabulous new school spirit song. "Call Me a Duck" is already an online hit, with over 200,000 views on the YouTube link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNboYbN6wFY
The song is a tribute to the University of Oregon, from football spirit to academic diversity. The group is, as always, a fabulous combination of true musical ability and some fully hilarious performance abilities. Duck fans everywhere should check out this video.
On the Rocks finished strong with their presence on the TV show The Sing Off. I've been powerfully obsessed with their videos since their time on the show ended. They took fifth place in the competition, and several of their performances were absolutely incredible. Here are my favorites:
"Live Your Life" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2H8-M3LeKg&NR=1
"Pour Some Sugar on Me" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSwV4ZkQ-Rw&NR=1
"Kyrie" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FJN8O3VDQ0&feature=fvw
I've been proud to be an OTR fan since freshman year. It's a hoot that they've become national musical celebrities over the last few months. I'm equally happy that they've used their musical skills to make a UO school spirit song. Be sure to check it out!
