Should we....make a playlist? I'll add two more.
Adding the "lost verse" for 'This Land is Your Land":
Little Pink Houses. The point in this song is often missed as well.
Good one. Added!
Would be remiss in not including a version of This Land is Your Land that includes the oft-omitted verses.
This version seems to have all of the verses. Sweet!
The Times They Are A-Changin (Bob Dylan) and The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (Gil Scott-Heron) are also classics.

Nice one. Added and included the lost verse.
Can't believe I forgot this one - South Park did a fantastic job bringing Sixteen Tons into the modern era.
That is a good one. I may save that for my Labor Day playlist.
Rage against the machine - Know your enemy seems relevant. Also maybe Freedom
Fits perfectly. Added!
NoFX - The Decline (full version)
Bush-era (same as American Idiot) but shockingly still relevant. Too heavy for this list?
Not at all; it's the messages that are important. I mean, I already put SOAD on there, so... lol
Mezmerize was such a damn good album. Popping that on for the day.
Handlebars by Flobots, White America by Eminem
You should make this a separate thread!
Added!
I thought about that, but I don't know if it'll maintain inertia. Hopefully people see a lot of comments in this post and decide to chime in.
Perhaps I can put the result into a Spotify playlist and post that afterwards?
Land of Confusion would be another addition. I'm in favor of the Disturbed version.
Excellent addition. I also prefer the Disturbed cover, but I added both.
NOFX is perfect on that list.
May I suggest “Don’t Let Me Die in America” by of Montreal? (Confusingly, an American band)
Also “Sunset on 32nd Street” by Strike Anywhere - although you could pull any track off that whole album and it would work.
What about
The Sound of Silence. I'm partial to Disturbed's version, but the original by Simon and Garfunkel fits depending on the mood.
