Downtown Knoxville Holiday Song Contest Winner

Date: 12/16/2011

Thanks to everyone who entered the Buy Downtown Knoxville Holiday Song Contest! We have some very creative talent out there, and the judges enjoyed reading them all. One song did stand out as their favorite, though. Congratulations to Paige Travis who won a $50 Buy Downtown Knoxville gift card for her effort. Here is her song for all to enjoy! 

What I Love About Downtown Knoxville
(In the style of My Favorite Things)

Chic modern fashions, both new and consignment, fill storefront windows with style and refinement.
Crass Couture, ReRuns and Fizz—what a thrill!
That’s what I love about Downtown Knoxville!

Musicians performing for Blue Plates and quarters, Bearded men drinking a few New World Porters, Art
Market painters displaying their skill:
That’s what I love about Downtown Knoxville!

Screen-printed onesies in Rala’s front windows, Sandwich at Just Ripe with cheese and pimentos, Kepner
Melts tempt me no matter my will:
That’s what I love about Downtown Knoxville!

When the lots’ full! When the wait’s long!
When the crowds won’t part,
I still count my blessings for Downtown Knoxville, and love it with all my heart!
