...one of the best-loved songs ever recorded about the Civil War: "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" by The Band. The song was first recorded in 1969, and was later covered and/or performed by Joan Baez, Johnny Cash, Jerry Garcia, the Black Crowes, Bruce Hornsby, and the Allman Brothers Band, among others...

Boyce & Hart were two of the three songwriters who composed the Theme Song for TV Soap Opera Days of Our Lives. 1965.
“Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Day of Our Lives!” as voiced by Macdonald Carey.
The first verse of The Bonnie Blue Flag captures the Confederate ethos perfectly.
Neil Diamond, too.
