America vs Brazil: National Music (Good or bad)

Song List....1. Yankee Doodle Dandy, a song made to slander the rebels in 1776. The British did not anticipate we would adopt the song though, now being the state song of Maryland. http://www.youtube.com...2. My personal favorite, the battle hynm of the republic. A mormon made battle song, later perfected by world famous composer John Phillip Sousa. This was the battle song of the republic for decades. http://www.youtube.com...3. When Johnny Comes Marching home , was a Union civil war battle song, dedicating the wars soldiers, and the long waited return of the New York army. The civil war was the bloodiest conflict in American history, and this song certainly remains with strong sentiment, even among todays crowd.http://www.youtube.com...4. I thought I might put in a cool, but rather inconventianal song in as well. This is called the Warriors Song, and was made as a fast paced electronic cadence dedicated to the US military.http://www.youtube.com...5. Eve of Destruction, is a notorius Vietnam esque protest song, that has been remastered 100's of times by many different artists. Its words are often changed slightly with every protest movenent, Barry Mcquire, playing it differently everytime himself. http://www.youtube.com...6. I heard this song most of my life. Its dedicated to the many Irish soldiers who fought in the civil war, following the potato famine. What people need to remember, is that the Irish were viewed by most Americans as the scum of the nation. Taking jobs, and were often discriminated against. 1000's of soldiers joined movements on both sides, to gain respect and security for their families. This song in particular, refers to the infamous 69th Irish Brigade, a willing meat shield for US soldiers. The Irish Brigade lost more lives than any regiment in the civil war. http://www.youtube.com...7.My country tis of thee, a stunning power ballad that displays the core values of our nation, and its founding principles. I feel, that America often forgets what the dream was actually about. http://www.youtube.com...8. America, fuk yeah, is exactly what it sounds like. Arrogant and cocky.http://www.youtube.com...9. To arms in Dixie, while a confederate anthem, still is played a lot in the south. It has became some unoffical theme for the people of the South. I can't claim to understand it, but I enjoy the unity....http://www.youtube.com...10. CCR, America's most reputable Vietnam War band, has went through more revivals, then any other music genre since the 50's. Fortunate Son, is a song protesting the Vietnam War draft, declaring the singer, as "no fortunate son", due to him being sent to fight in "hell", IE, Vietnam.http://www.youtube.com...11. The defense of New'r leans, was the final engagement in the war of 1812. Facing well equipped force, late president Jackson organized a valiant millitia defense against invading Canadians/Brits. By building cotton bale stacks and make shift barricades, the Americans won a major uphill battle. Ironically, this battle was fought after the signing of truce. http://www.youtube.com... 12. When Joepbr came to me wanting to debate this, I knew I had to find the perfect song to sum up American culture for here. Audience, I'm pleased to present you, "Its a party in the USA", by Miley Cyrus http://www.youtube.com...
