| Some songs are so patriotic that they can bring a tear to the eye of even the toughest character. Check out some of our favorites. | |
|
| "The Star-Spangled Banner" |
| |
| Written in 1918, this song evoked so much American pride that people petitioned to make it the national anthem. As the attacks unfolded on 9/11, members of Congress broke out into a spontaneous rendition on the steps of the Capitol building. | |

| Complacent. That's what Guthrie thought of "God Bless America." So in 1940, he wrote one of America's most poignant folk songs. Nearly 70 years later, Pete Seeger and Bruce Springsteen performed "This Land Is Your Land" at President Obama's 2009 inauguration. | |

Independence Day • 1996 |
|
With cheesy dialogue and a ridiculous storyline,Independence Day could have easily fallen into sci-fi obscurity. But it just goes to show that, no matter the enemy, groundbreaking special effects and over-the-top rallying cries conquer all, especially at the box office. |

Forrest Gump • 1994 |
|
He might not be a smart man, but he sure can run. From dodging bullets while saving his comrades to defending his lady at a Black Panther party, Forrest Gump surprised everyone and stole our hearts. |

Top Gun • 1986 |
|
A little camaraderie and a lot of cockiness. That's what it takes to be the best. Though the testosterone and hair product are overflowing in Top Gun, everyone feels safer knowing that Maverick and Ice Man are on our side. |
