The Fourth of the July is on the biggest drinking days of this year. Given that it’s a Saturday this year, it will be an even bigger party than usual, since many of us will have a three day weekend. One of the things necessary for any decent party is a good playlist, and for Independence Day, that means adding some songs that celebrate the best country in the world.
God Bless the USA, Lee Greenwood
Freedom, George Michael
Sweet Home Alabama, Lynyrd Skynyrd
Born in the USA, Bruce Springsteen
American Woman, Lenny Kravitz
Party in the USA, Miley Cyrus
The Star-Spangled Banner, Whitney Houston
Living in America, James Brown
Empire State of Mind, Alicia Keys and Jay Z
American Girl, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
American Pie, Don McLean
Made in America, Kanye West and Jay Z
Have safe and happy 4th, everyone!.

Jenna used to be known as 2NOTBrokeGirls, but then one of the girls actually went broke, so she's struck out on her own. Jenna spends her free time saving the world, one sorority girl at a time (usually while wearing yoga pants), questioning why she decided to get a doctorate, documenting her love of all things cheese related, and hosting the new PGP podcast Don't Take It From Us. You can ask her anything you want about football, using your boobs to get what you want, and pizza at @JennaLCrowley on Twitter or via email at JennaLCrowley@gmail.com.

Addendum: Team America: World Police theme song.

Born in the USA is not a patriotic song, it’s about coming home from the Vietnam War and having no job or life prospect…You also left off Neil Diamond’s “America”.
Born in the USA is exactly a patriotic song because it is about coming home from the Vietnam War and having no job or life prospect.
You haven’t actually listened to Born in the USA if you think it’s pro-America.
Why can’t you just make a Spotify playlist for us like Brian used to do?
Bryan loved playlists

Several of these songs are arguably Anti-American, but nice try.
What a grave emission not including Real American by Rick Derringer.
Omission, pal.
I’d add “Real American,” aka “Hulk Hogan’s theme song from the 80s.”

Yeah, it’s a must have
Get rid of the Jay Z and Kanye.
SERIOUSLY!? if its the 4th and you’re not slammin’ light beers, taking tokes, and slappin’ asses while Con Bro Chill – Born Free America is bumpin in the background, you fail at freedom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfoIlbH6pCw
Go home Mike, you’re drunk
in the midst ofa week long bender. for america bro.
You fail at making me take you seriously.
this generic playlist is weak…. its like something a 35 year old wearing khakis and a polo would listen to while he sips cheap burbon that he specificly ordered “neat” until he switches to IPA’s. its time to put your drinking shoes on and go rage.
Beer For My Horses, or really anything by The Marshall Tucker Band.
