One of the largest and longest-lengthed rivers on the continent of North America. It runs from the city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania all the way to the very southern tip of Illinois at a town called Cairo, whereupon it pours out into the Mighty Mississippi River.
It covers a length of well over 300 miles and creates the northern border for Kentucky and West Virginia, separating them from the rest of Midwest. This major waterway has been the lifesource for the people who have resided in this large Ohio River Valley since the dawn of the 1800s, and the Native Americans who predominantly occupied the region beforehand. The riverboat traffic on the Ohio as well as the major freshwater source was the number one reason for the development of such huge cities and large towns along the Ohio River. See Owensboro, Evansville, Cincinnati, Huntington, and Louisville.

Oh, one correction! Paul Carrack is actually the lead singer, he also went off on his own temporary solo career between this band's albums; one in 1985, and another in 1988.
Mike and The Mechanics really should be more well-known

This is the formerly-largest city in the great state of Ohio, with the metropolis' population currently being at around 470,000 people. It is here where there are three major/national sports teams: Cleveland Cavaliers (NBA), Cleveland Browns (NFL), and Cleveland Indians (MLB). Cleveland has been voted as an All-American city five times.
There is a Federal Bank Reserve building located here. In addition, C-town also has numerous corporate headquarters, including GE (General Electric). It was in Cleveland that the term rock n roll was coined by a DJ during the early 1950s. Not surprisingly, the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame and Musuem is also located here, built partially on the Cleveland shore, and part of it just above the coast of Lake Erie.
This major U.S. city is also home to one of the tallest and coolest buildings in the World: The Key Tower; a massive skyscraper that towers over downtown Cleveland at 947 feet and 57 stories high. There are also some REALLY OLD high-rise buildings here, including: Holiday Inn Express (built 1896, 15 stories), the Rockefeller Building (built 1905, 17 stories), and Metropolitan Bank Center (built 1915, 15 stories).

The latest, most irritating slang term today that is sweeping over parts of the US like a plague. Only rednecks, cowboys, stars of The Blue Collar Comedy Tour, The Sons of Confederate Veterans, and other total freaks say this. I will be relieved when this idiotic phrase is finally burned out, hopefully in the next two years.
I think the fact that they named that "movie" the Blue Collar Comedy Tour is quite insulting to actual middle and lower-class citizens who fall under the Blue Collar status and live in Northern states and cities. Now many morons out there will expect EVERY blue-collar person being like those Southern, redneck-talkin jackasses on that movie.
