Bob Dylan bringing Johnny Cash on Nashville Skyline is an instructive moment w/r/t who's cooler than who, because Bob Dylan picked that moment to sing normal* for the first time in his fucking life, clearly not taking any chances around Johnny.

It can't be the Yankees for obvious reasons, but if it's established precedent to play songs from New Hollywood musicals after sports wins, I think some team should do "Take Off With Us" from ALL THAT JAZZ
