5. Rocky Mountain High, of course (dating back to when the PTB thought it was totally about drugs

and censored it--then a mere 10 or so years later, made it the Colorado State song. Hah!

Not an Independence Day song, you say? Well, it sure as hell was mine and just about every other Coloradoan's.

I always get tears in my eyes when I watch these. I taught my 1st Graders "You're A Grand 'Ol Flag" and they LOVED it too! My enthusiasm was evident when I belted it out and had to close the classroom door (my voice sucks but 6 year olds can't tell).

39. George M. Cohan. I love all of his songs.

So glad there’s a statue of him in the middle of Broadway in NYC. I mean, if Trump hasn’t taken it down yet.

Thanks for sharing. I try to watch this film every year and it always makes me smile.

43. Cagney was such an incredible "hoofer"

He walks on walls with ease. So much talent. They used to show this movie on TCM each year but I haven't seen it for a few years. I hope they show it again soon.

The British began the name to mock Americans, but Americans embraced it and sang this song.

33. Aaron Copland & ELP: Fanfare For The Common Man

As one commenter put it below this video: ELP put their spin on a philharmonic piece; then a philharmonic put their spin on ELP's spin of a philharmonic piece.
