Party like it’s 2008! More Green Onions!

Party like it’s 2008! More Green Onions!  
And right before Big Guy made this whole evening about race a learning experience no less:
“Memphis, Tennessee, was segregated in the 1960s, but blacks and whites came together despite the institutional racism to create a soulful blend of gospel and rhythmic blues music that sought to 'bridge those divides, to create a little harmony with harmony.
They weren't allowed to go to school together. They weren't always allowed to travel or eat together,' Obama said. 'But no one could stop them from playing music together.”
Well, at least that explains Justin Timberlake. Nothing explained Cyndi Lauper. Later on, Big Guy revealed his personal approval of Booker T’s huge hit “Green Onions:”
"I just want everybody to know that it is now my second term, so rather than 'Hail to the Chief,' we're going with ('Green Onions') from here on out."
