Isn't it kind of funny that only country music has the songs about America.  They have all the songs about 9/11 and killing Osama and Sadam Hussain, yet do you ever hear a rock or rap song about 9/11? No.  Your thoughts

country music sucks to the max

There was rock songs about 9/11.

Bruce Springsteen for example

Because rappers are too busy talkin about the hood.

Steel Train - I Feel Weird

I mean it's not ABOUT 9/11, but still.

I've heard many songs talk about their country that aren't country music. The thing is that country music does it most. Thus the name.

No if anything rock people sing about whats wrong with America.  For example System of a down, Manson, ect. Frankly I think saying hey there's something wrong with this country is more patriotic then just saying how great it is.

My Chemical Romance's first song was about 9/11.

Ftr sick sense is NOT patriotic, just very political.
I consider patriotic music to be less than productive.

You're right, there are a couple, but listen to country music for an hour, and if you haven't killed yourself yet, you'll realize how many country has


-- Posted by 2kewl4u2know at 12:06 pm on July 4, 2009

Linkin Park and Green Day and Pink made songs about 9/11 and America representatives.  Okay, so they didn't really support it as much as country songs do, but that's what they were about.


-- Posted by SpRiNgS at 12:07 pm on July 4, 2009

i just kind of proved you didn't know what you were talking about but duhh country is patriotic

it's kind of always been that way

I don't think I have ever face palmed so hard in my life.  Country music is not called country music because they have a few songs about the country.  Lol.
