We had related certain experiences that we know about through history.
96 degrees in the shade is a perfect example of that thought, because it's like the song itself is expressing a direct historical event, which was the hanging [A] of Paul Bowie.
But through even singing about that [N] event, we're showing the listener the whole thing of slavery, you know. _ _ _ _ _
