Someone should start a list comparing the musical reactions to 9-11 by country musicians and rock and rollers.

Alan Jackson's song is another favorite of mine. This patriotism in country music has always been around. I remember seeing Doug Supernaw in concert years ago, a day or so after the OKC bombing. I was in a small, but very noisy club. He said for everyone to take off their hats and offer a moment of silence. The place felt silent and although it is a worn-out cliche, you really could have heard a pin drop for about 2 minutes..

Well let’s see, right off the top of my head:
For Country, you have:

Toby Keith – “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)”
Toby Keith – “My List”
Alan Jackson – “Where Were You”
Len Doolin – “There Ain’t No Yellow In The Red, White and Blue”
Arron Tippin – “Where the Stars and Stripes and The Eagle Flies”
Randy Travis – “America Will Always Stand”
Charlie Daniels Band – “This Ain’t No Rag”
And of course,
Ray Stevens – “Osama – Yo’ Mama” (You in a heap o’ trouble boy)

And for Rock and Roll, you have:

Oh all right - Neil Young - "Let's Roll"
Although, Neil Young is more Country than Rocker!
