    Two different songs called "Independence Day". One by Mia Doi Todd and one by Elliott Smith. Neither really about the 4th of July, but whatever.

    On Monday, I'll be pumping the Steve Earle out of the car stereo on my way to hear YLT in Battery Park. Dissent is as American as apple pie.

    Eric Andersen-- My Land is a Good Land
    Hendrix-- you know which one
    Ramatam-- Washington Post March
    Grateful Dead-- US Blues
    Grateful Dead-- Franklin's Tower
    Ruben Blades-- Patria




    "Some come to laugh their past away--
    Some come to make it live just one more day;
    Whichever way your pleasure tends,
    If you plant ice you're gonna harvest wind..."

    (Franklin's Tower)

    "Like the old tree mentioned by the poet,
    Like the love you still have after grandmother died...
    Its in the walls of our barrio, and in its brown hope:
    Its what those who leave take in their souls...
    Its like a feeling in an old man's eyes,
    like the warmth of a summer sun, like the laughter of a new sister...

    Motherland is so many beautiful things..."
    (Patria)

    Excellent, it'll be like 1995 all over again.

    Now to talk my non-YLT fan friends out of Brooklyn. Maybe I'll lie and tell them Malkmus is likely to play only Pavement songs.

    God Bless The USA
    by Lee Greenwood

    If tomorrow all the things were gone
    I've worked for all my life
    and I had to start again
    With just my family by my side
    I'd thank my god above
    To be living here today
    'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
    and they can't take that away hey

    CHORUS:
    I'm proud to be an American
    where at least I know I'm free
    And I won't forget the men who died
    who gave that right to me
    And I gladly stand up next to you
    And defend her still today
    'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
    God bless the USA

    From the lakes of Minnesota
    To the hills of Tennessee
    Across the plains of Texas
    From sea to shining sea
    From Detroit down to Houston
    And New York to L.A.
    There's pride in every American heart
    And it's time we stand and say

    I'm proud to be an American
    where at least I know I'm free
    And I won't forget the men who died
    who gave that right to me
    And I gladly stand up next to you
    And defend her still today
    'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
    God bless the USA

    I'm proud to be an American
    where at least I know I'm free
    And I won't forget the men who died
    who gave that right to me
    And I gladly stand up next to you
    And defend her still today
    'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
    God bless the USA

    I'm proud to be an American
    where at least I know I'm free
    And I won't forget the men who died
    who gave that right to me
    And I gladly stand up next to you
    And defend her still today
    'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
    God bless the USA

    Rammstein - "Amerika"

    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika ist wunderbar
    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika
    Amerika

    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika ist wunderbar
    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika
    Amerika

    Wenn getanzt wird will ich f¸hren
    Auch wenn ihr euch alleine dreht
    Lasst euch ein wenig kontrollieren
    Ich zeige euch wie's richtig geht

    Wir bilden einen lieben Reigen
    Die Freiheit spielt auf allen Geigen
    Musik kommt aus dem Wei?en Haus
    Und vor Paris steht Mickey Mouse

    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika ist wunderbar
    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika
    Amerika

    Ich kenne Schritte die sehr n¸tzen
    Und werde euch vor Fehltritt sch¸tzen
    Und wer nicht tanzen will am Schluss
    Weiss noch nicht dass er tanzen muss

    Wir bilden einen lieben Reigen
    Ich werde euch die Richtung zeigen
    Nach Afrika kommt Santa Claus
    Und vor Paris steht Mickey Mouse

    We're all living in Amerika
    Coca Cola
    Wonderbra
    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika
    Amerika

    This is not a love song
    This is not a love song
    I don't sing my mother tongue
    No, this is not a love song

    We're all living in Amerika
    Coca Cola
    Sometimes war
    We're all living in Amerika
    Amerika
    Amerika

    I like to be in America, Okay by me in America.
    Everything free in America, For a small fee in America.
    I like the city of San Juan, I know a boat you can get on.
    Hundreds of flowers in full bloom, Hundreds of people in each room!
    Automoblie in America, Chromium steel in America.
    Wire spoke wheel in America, Very big deal in America.
    I'll drive a buick thru San Juan, If there's a road you can drive on.
    I'll give my cousins a free ride, How you fit all of them inside?
    Immigrant goes to America, Many hellos in America.
    Nobody knows in America, Puerto Rico's in America.
    When I will go back to San Juan, When you will shut up and get gone.
    I'll give them new washing machine, what have they got there to keep clean?
    I like the shores of America, Comfort is yours in America.
    Knobs on the doors in America, Wall to wall floors in America.
    I'll bring a T.V. to San Juan, If there's a current to turn on.
    Everyone there will give big cheer, Everyone there will have moved here.
    I like to be in America, Okay by me in America.
    Everything free in America, For a small fee in America.
