minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up33·edit-24 months agoShould we…make a playlist? I’ll add two more. Green Day - American Idiot CCR - Fortunate Son Woodie Guthrie - This Land is Your Land (via @[email protected] – updated to different version with the “lost” verse) System of a Down - Prison Song (BYOB is a close second) Descendants - 'Merican (Added from @[email protected]’s suggestion.) John Mellencamp - Little Pink Houses (via @[email protected]) Stone Sour - Come What(ever) Avenged Sevenfold - Blinded in Chains (last two via @[email protected]) Flobots - Handlebars (via @[email protected]) NOFX - Idiots are Taking Over (via @[email protected]) Rage Against the Machine - Know Your Enemy (via @[email protected]) Disturbed - Land of Confusion | Genesis - Land of Confusion (via @[email protected]) Adding the “lost verse” for 'This Land is Your Land": “One bright sunny morning in the shadow of the steeple, by the relief office I saw my people. As they stood hungry, I stood there wondering if God blessed America for me.”
minus-squarejawa21@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 months agoLittle Pink Houses. The point in this song is often missed as well.
minus-squareMelodiousFunk@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 months agoCan’t believe I forgot this one - South Park did a fantastic job bringing Sixteen Tons into the modern era.
minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 months agoThat is a good one. I may save that for my Labor Day playlist.
minus-squareMelodiousFunk@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-24 months agoWould be remiss in not including a version of This Land is Your Land that includes the oft-omitted verses. This version seems to have all of the verses. Sweet! The Times They Are A-Changin (Bob Dylan) and The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (Gil Scott-Heron) are also classics. *edited to add links @[email protected]
minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 months agoNice one. Added and included the lost verse.
minus-squarefireweed@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-24 months agoHandlebars by Flobots, White America by Eminem You should make this a separate thread!
minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-24 months agoI thought about that, but I don’t know if it’ll maintain inertia. Hopefully people see a lot of comments in this post and decide to chime in. Perhaps I can put the result into a Spotify playlist and post that afterwards?
minus-squareclearedtoland@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·4 months ago Come What(ever) May by Stone Sour Blinded in Chains by Avenged Sevenfold Bush-era (same as American Idiot) but shockingly still relevant. Too heavy for this list?
minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 months agoNot at all; it’s the messages that are important. I mean, I already put SOAD on there, so… lol
minus-squareclearedtoland@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 months agoMezmerize was such a damn good album. Popping that on for the day.
minus-squareGladiusB@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 months agoLand of Confusion would be another addition. I’m in favor of the Disturbed version.
minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·4 months agoExcellent addition. I also prefer the Disturbed cover, but I added both.
minus-squaremiddlemanSI@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 months agoRage against the machine - Know your enemy seems relevant. Also maybe Freedom
minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 months agoFits perfectly. Added!
minus-squareHootinNHollerin@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 months agoNoFX - The Decline (full version)
minus-squarecleanandsunny@literature.cafelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoMay I suggest “Don’t Let Me Die in America” by of Montreal? (Confusingly, an American band) Also “Sunset on 32nd Street” by Strike Anywhere - although you could pull any track off that whole album and it would work.
Should we…make a playlist? I’ll add two more.

NOFX is perfect on that list.
