I like the song ‘Dixie’ even though I don’t agree with the Confederate cause. My excuse. Number one: it was written by a northerner. Number two: it was one of Lincoln’s favorite songs and he was the south’s worst enemy! And number three: Yankee Doodle was written by the British before Americans made it their own. So if that can be done with Yankee Doodle, that can also be done with Dixie. I think it’s a cheery tune honestly.

I love Tomorrow Belongs To Me, the anthem of the Nazi Youth. If you take it out of its nazi context it can apply to anything and be really inspirational.

General Grant, who was extremely un-musical (he couldn't even march in step at West Point), once said the he could only recognize two songs. One was "Dixie" and the other one wasn't.
