Moments # 4: Patriotic Music

Sure, I could link some Stephen Foster Wallace or John Philip Sousa. Or I could play some really corny cheesy music or show you "I'm Proud to be an American."

But nothing says Happy Independence Day! quite like this:

Happy Birthday, America!


  1. I was hoping you would comment on the amazing band, Grindhouse. I mean nothing says "I'm proud to be an American" like a Motley Crue cover! (Well, maybe an AC/DC cover does.)

  2. Well i guess my country doesn't have a "birthday" but it sure will have an expiry date...

  3. Loved this! I was expecting Pollyanna and/or some other cheesy movies on the tv yesterday, and instead it was Star Wars and James Bond. Not sure what that has to do with the Nations birthday? I flipped through the channels and felt really old.

  4. All 3 of these comments are amazing. Though Pola, I am thinking of you & your country every day. Lots of love and hugs to you and all my Greek friends.
