Tuesday Tunes @ The Music MemoirsA little fun 4th of July style:
Make a mix of at least 10 songs w/or without art that sum up Independence Day for you.
1. The Star Spangled Banner - Jimi HendrixBecause I think every Independence Day party or BBQ should start out with this!
2. We're An American Band - Grand Funk RailroadHave a cold one, and toast to American style rock and roll!
3. Cheeseburger in Paradise - Jimmy BuffettBecause it's not a summer party without Buffett, is it?
4. America - Neil DiamondOn the boats and on the planes
They're coming to America
Never looking back again
They're coming to America5. Glory Days - Bruce Springsteen and the E Street BandGlory days well they'll pass you by,
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye,
Glory days, glory days6. Pink Houses - John MellencampOh, but ain't that America, for you and me?
Ain't that America, we're somethin' to see, baby.
Ain't that America, the home of the free.
Little pink houses for you and me.7. Dixie Chicken - Little FeatWe always end up with this one on at BBQs at some point.
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together
Down in Dixieland8. American Girl - Tom Petty and the HeartbreakersWell she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life
Somewhere else9. 4th of July - XThis one makes everybody's 4th of July mixes it seems.
10. America The Beautiful - Ray CharlesGetting settled in to watch the fireworks? Gather together and end the festivities with this wonderful rendition.
Listen to the mix!

I could have really expanded this list and taken you through the day, from preparing that potato salad, to greeting your guests all the way through to the fireworks, but I digress, I'll leave it at the 10 requested for this meme. :) Maybe soon I'll do that summer BBQ playlist if you guys want one enough.
We may not have a perfect country, but it's our country. Have a safe and fun 4th!
