It's not that it's crap, it's just my mum might appreciate it and we wouldn't want that.

Re: I need "American Music"
I got the impression that the OP wanted songs that typified American music or were applicable to American life in general. Your interpretation of his request seems to have been limited to songs about people actually arriving in the USA.

Re: I need "American Music"
Just came to mind another one about America ..........
"America" by Razorlight.
Not sure how big it might have been in America itself but it was in Europe.

Re: I need "American Music"
My parents are visiting, so they will see the granddaughter for the first time tomorrow, which is nice.
Plane lands at 1AM CST at O'Hare and I was thinking about getting some music for the Ipod that is 'American' So if you brainiacs could think of some tracks that relate and maybe post the You Tube video of it I'd be very great full.
Disclaimer, I don't want. "Born in the USA"
Also, I'm thinking of holding up a sign that says WANKERS as only the British people getting off of the plane will know what it means
Maybe, welcome to the jungle is a good start.

"American Pie" - Don McLean
"America" - Simon & Garfunkel
"Southland in the Springtime" - Indigo Girls ... will look for a Youtube as I suspect you won't know this one
