Pop/Rock Songs that mention 4th of July (1 Viewer)

"4Th Of July" - Soundgarden

Shower in the dark day

Clean sparks driving down

Cool in the waterway

Where the baptized drown

Naked in the cold sun

Breathing life like fire

Thought I was the only one

But that was just a lie

Cause I heard it in the wind

And I saw it in the sky

And I thought it was the end

And I thought it was the 4th of July

I am not sure if there are enough that mention 4th of July to do it but if you throw in "Freedom" or even "Free" it could open it up quite a bit:"Philadelphia Freedom" - Elton John

"I Feel Free" - Cream

"Freedom" - Paul McCartney

"Freedom Rider" - Traffic

"I'm Free" - The Who

Aerosmith, Walkin' the Dog

Ask my mama for fifteen cent

To see the elephant jump the fence

It jumped so high, it touched the sky

Didn't come back till the fourth of July

One Headlight - Wallflowers

"She said it's cold

It feels like Independence Day

And I can't break away from this parade

But there's got to be an opening

Somewhere here in front of me

Through this maze of ugliness and greed"

I made a spotify playlist of these songs, minus the U2 instrumental, plus most songs mentioned in this thread and some others I found. Sadly the Van Morrison (and Shooter Jennings) nomination isn't on spotify.

4TH OF JULY, ASBURY PARK (SANDY) - Bruce Springsteen
Only in the title. July is mentioned, but not specificly the fourth. :nerd: Independence Day. Springsteen. Unrelated to the fourth.
Yes it is. First verse. :confused:
Is this trap for a john mellencamp lyric?
Sandy, the fireworks are hailin over Little Eden tonight,

Forcing a light into all those stoney faces

Left stranded on this Fourth of July

I had to go back and check...it's "warm" on the album but "Fourth" on the Live 75-85 version, which I've listened to about 10x more. I thought I was losing my #### for a minute there.

I haven't listened to 75-85 in years.

Is that also an "angels" version instead of "waitress"?

Correct.

The album version was a little too 70's sounding when I was a kid, so I basically grew up with the Live cut.
