INYIM Media Salutes & Gets Giddy For A Long Holiday Weekend In The United States Known As 4th Of July! Here Are Top 'America' Tunes In Commemoration.

"It's impossible to live in the 50 states and not know about schoolhouse classics like "The Star Spangled Banner" and "This Land Is Your Land," but those famous patriotic odes aren't the only way to give a musical shout-out to America.

To celebrate the 4th of July, we've hand-selected 20 songs, each of which talks about this big, great, complicated country of ours in its own special way -- from the critical (Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the U.S.A.") to the full-on celebratory (Miley Cyrus's "Party in the U.S.A.").

Madonna, "American Life" Key "America" Lyric: "I'd like to express my extreme point-of-view/ I'm not a Christian and I'm not a Jew/ I'm just living out the American dream/ And I just realized that nothing is what it seems."

Tom Petty, "American Girl" Key "America" Lyric: "Well, she was an American girl/ Raised on promises/ She couldn't help thinkin' that there was a little more to life somewhere else."

Lana Del Rey, "American" Key "America" Lyric: "Be young, be dope be proud/ Like an American."

Eminem, "White America" Key "America" Lyric: "The women and men who have broke their necks for the freedom of speech the United States Government has sworn to uphold, or (Yo', I want everybody to listen to the words of this song) so we're told…"



Lenny Kravitz, "American Woman" Key "America" Lyric: "I don't need your war machines/ I don't need your ghetto scenes/ Colored lights can hypnotize/ Sparkle someone else's eyes/ Now woman, get away/ American woman, listen what I say."



James Brown, "Living in America" Key "America" Lyric: "Living in America -- hand to hand, across the nation Living in America/ Got to have a celebration/ You might not be looking for the promised land, but you might find it anyway."

Don McLean, "American Pie" Key "America" Lyric: "So bye-bye, miss American pie/ Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry."



Kim Wilde, "Kids in America" Key "America" Lyric: "Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere/ I don't want to go baby/ New York to East California/ There's a new wave coming I warn you/ We're the kids in America."
