Wait a sec, who did the song MoTownPhilly? Boyz II Men, right?
(time out for a bit of research)
Ah, there's another link. Michael Bivins was also in Boyz II Men. |

| Since it's Motown, I don't suppose it could be referring to when New Edition broke up and Bell Biv Devoe arose? Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and Ronnie Devoe were 3 of the 5 members of New Edition. |

| How about the surrender of Ft. Detroit, August 16, 1812. I don't see anything that yells out "5-3" but I only took a cursory glance. It seems that one of the key strategies was making the Americans believe there were more enemies that there actually were, so maybe it's worth looking into. |

| I thought sports as well, but focused on football since 5-3 would be a rather unusual score. |

| Initial thought was sports. I looked and Detroit never lost 5-3 in a World Series (back when then played best of 9). |

Saw this online and am stumped.
What historical moment does this describe?
"Five to three was enough for these gunslangers [sic] to take down Motown." |
