Goalscrounger's Musical Theme of the Week - Week 44 - 4th July

goalscrounger · Jul 3, 2026

Tomorrow is 4th July here (well, it's 4th July everywhere, but you know what I mean!) and Mrs Scrounger and I will be the only Brits at a 4th July party. It's always a bit weird being in the US for Independence Day, but the banter is usually good natured. I decided to get my retaliation in first and designed myself a lovely t-shirt to wear at the party

(the graphic is the one I've used on the Spotify playlist this week).

Anyway, your challenge this week is to: post a song where the TITLE contains SOMETHING TO DO WITH AMERICA or INDEPENDENCE. Let those stereotypical xenophobic tropes run wild! Please note, I won't be accepting US place names (town, city or state) as we've already done US states and I don't want this thread to turn into the same 200 songs about New York or California!!)

T&Cs

1) Please don't post more than three in a row (this keeps the playlist eclectic).

2) Similarly, don't post two tracks by the same artist in close succession.

3) Please put the song title and band in your post. This saves me having to click to video and looking at YouTube to figure out what you've posted (or even worse, having to turn my VPN on to even see the thumbnail for geo-locked videos). I love you all for doing this, thank you!!
