I have a couple that could easily inspire Americans in our times.

The "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmarron" soundtrack by Bryan Adams was remarkably good, especially for a kid's flick. Here are a couple of the best songs on it:

GET OFF MY BACK-This song pretty well describes how our country feels about the rest of the world right about now.

So you think that you can take me on, you must be crazy.

There ain't a single thing you've done that's gonna faze me.

Oh, but if you wanna have a go, I just wanna let you know...

Yeah, get offa my back and into my game.

Get outta my way and outta my brain.

Get outta my face or give it your best shot.

I think it's time you better face the fact.

Get offa my back.

You know it's all just a game that I'm playin',

Don't think that you can find a way in is what I'm sayin',

Oh, if you wanna have a go I just wanna let you know...

Get offa my back and into my game.

Get outta my way and outta my brain.

Get outta my face or give it your best shot.

I think it's time you better face the fact.

Get offa my back.

Oh, if you wanna have a go I just wanna let you know...

Get off, get off, get offa my back and into my game.

Get outta my way and outta my brain.

Get outta my face or give it your best shot.

'Cuz you know this train is comin' offa it's track.

Get offa my back.

SOUND THE BUGLE-This song is very moving, and I think it illustrates how much the world has tried to knock us down here lately. It goes on with some very encouraging words at the end however. The lyrics touch me way down deep.

Sound the bugle now.

Play it just for me.

As the seasons change remember how I used to be.

Now I can't go on.

I can't even start.

I got nothing left, just an empty heart.

I'm a soldier wounded so I must give up the fight.

There's nothing more for me.

Lead me away or leave me lying here.

Sound the bugle now.

Tell them I don't care.

There's not a road I know that leads to anywhere.

Without a light I fear that I will stumble in the dark.

Lay right down and decide not to go on.

Then from on high, somewhere in the distance,

There's a voice that calls 'Remember who you are.

'If you lose yourself your courage soon will follow,

'So be strong tonight.

'Remember who you are.

'Yeah, you're a soldier now,

'Fighting in a battle to be free once more.

'Yeah, that's worth fighting for.'"

If you've never heard the soundtrack you should really check it out. It is incredible. Also if you want stirring, patriotic music, you should get a copy of the "Glory" soundtrack. That music can positively bring tears to my eyes.

"Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmarron"

That movie was a horrible piece of disgusting PC-propaganda. The music on it I do not remember, but I do remember the scenes of the "noble", untamed wild horse being chased by mean evil white men wearing U.S. Cavalry uniforms.

Glory soundtrack, used, I believe, the score of Carmina Burana.

Pro wrestling uses songs filled with bravado like that, too.
