Momentum in the 2024 US presidential campaign has fundamentally shifted in recent weeks, and music has played its part in this remarkable transformation. The Harris-Walz campaign is using particular kinds of music to help communicate its optimistic message of hope, inclusion and a brighter future for America.
At The Democratic National Convention (DNC), Kamala Harris stepped onto the podium to deliver her nomination acceptance speech accompanied by her campaign soundtrack, the Beyoncé anthem “Freedom”.

What are the songs democrats listening to now?
Mods pull if inappropriate.
They can get as creative as they want but, as much as they want to, they’ll never stumble on an equal to YMCA.
You can’t reclaim anything when you never had. You also cannot claim these things when your whole political agenda is “America sucks, the Government has to force everyone to change to what we feel will make it unsucky”

if the music is the most exciting moment
you are in trouble
DOGE shows USAID paid celebs tens of millions of dollars to spread their propaganda.
I think the music has stopped and it’s not turning back on for them any time soon.
What are the songs democrats listening to now?
Creep (Radiohead)...”I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo. What the hell am I doin’ here?”
Goth
Sorry,
But.. Neil’s “Rockin in the Free World”.. Is NOT a song ANY politician should be using.
It is in no way a pro America song.
That was an awesome post!
Made me chuckle aloud!
Lets see Hakeem and Chucky Dance!!!!
Exactly.
At all.
The song “creep” has far too much self-awareness for Democrats.
Part of being a leftist is the inability to self-examine for faults; everything must be someone else’s fault, preferably a white heterosexual guy, best if he is an observant Jew, but Christian of any kind works 99% as well.
Or Beck “I’m a loser baby, so why don’t you kill me”?
Whatever the plan is it won’t work and the next anvil will fall on Wylie E Democrat. Beep beep!
Well, as long as they pander to feelings, they’ll continue to lose.
It goes to show how out of touch they are with reality.
