“Come On Over To My House”

Best song if you are traveling through Kansas.

The perfect song is by the BAND "Kansas", and is called "Song for America". It will send chills down your spine. I think this song would be a great replacement for the unsingable National Anthem. Not only sings about the awesome wonder and beauty of the nation but our duty to preserve it from environmental depravations. Also sings about America's history as a sanctuary for weary immigrants coming here and making the nation stronger. Amazingly prophetic lyrics for a song written in the late 70s!

SONG FOR AMERICA
BY Kansas (Kerry Livgren)

Virgin land of forest green, dark and stormy plains, here all life abounds
Sunlit valley, mountain fields, unseen in the rain, here all life abounds
No man rules this land, no human hand has soiled this paradise
Waiting patiently, so much to see, so rich in Earth's delights

Painted desert, sequined sky, stars that fill the night, here all life abounds
Rivers flowing to the sea, sunshine pure and bright, here all life abounds
No man rules this land, no human hand has soiled this paradise
Waiting patiently, so much to see, so rich in Earth's delights

So the maiden lies in waiting for the sails to reach the shore
Land of beauty and abunance, innocent, you opened wide your door
Wanderers found the waiting treasure, full of gifts beyond their measure
Milk and honey for our pleasure

Across the sea there came a multitude, sailing ships upon the wave
Filled with visions of Utopia and the freedom that they crave
Ravage, plunder, see no wonder, rape and kill and tear asunder
Chop the forest, plow it under

Highways scar the mountainsides, buildings to the sky, people all around
So we rule this land, and her we stand upon our paradise
Dreaming of a place, our weary race is ready to rise

For the Spanish speakers: (an awesome rock epic by Soda Stereo out of Argentina)

Even monolingual English speakers will like this, I promise you. Transcendent rock like vintage U2 or Joy Division:

Dust in the Wind by Kansas. Or for that matter any song by Kansas.

There's no song in the universe that can make that time on the lifeless void of I-70 between Witchita and Denver go by fast enough ... :S
