Sing America - Patriotic American Flag T-Shirt for Men & Women | USA Independence Day, Memorial Day, Veterans Day & 4th of July Celebration Apparel

Product Description

Amazon.com An ideal vehicle for teaching the art of songs as national stories, Sing America is both enjoyable for its musical selections and educational for kids and those who aren't. The standard fare is here in the form of Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man," LeAnn Rimes singing "God Bless America," and Cher singing the national anthem. Each song is compellingly rendered and entertaining enough to enchant and instruct, as are the range of other pop items. Frank Sinatra's here, as is Paul Simon, the latter singing "Graceland," which, with Stevie Wonder's "Sir Duke," serves up a lesson in American popular culture as history. An inclusive collection, Sing America also encourages an open-minded look at American history, including O'Landa Draper's Associates singing a medley of "American the Beautiful" and "We Shall Overcome" and Peter, Paul & Mary piping in with "This Land Is Your Land." If nothing more, Sing America provides an excellent opportunity to consider and discuss the way America tells its stories through songs, and adults and children alike will benefit from that. --Andrew Bartlett
