Sean Hannity used to use "Independence Day" as his theme song. Warning: it is most certainly not a patriotic song.

Sean should have used a genuine patriotic song like American Tune.

You’re right. But Springsteen’s Born in the USA is about the suffering of Vietnam Veterans and not about patriotism. The songs are about the struggles of life.

I have no use for songs like "Born in the USA' and "American Woman" by the Guess Who, which are anti-American rants. I much prefer songs that are bullish on America such as Back in the USA, The Fiery Bear and Yankee Rose.

I LOVE Martina McBride! This song still gives me goose bumps (it just did, just now as I clicked the link to hear it for the umpteenth time)

Coming from a home where my father regularly beat my mother, (we are talking black eyes, broken bleeding noses, pulled out hair) this song has meaning for me. I wish my mother would have stood up for herself.

They are both gone now. My mom went first, was still living with that BASTARD. He’s gone now STRAIGHT TO HELL!
