| WhiteRat | Don't forget Election Day by Arcadia. That song truly did wonders during the '96 general election. | |

| Helm | There's no song that has influenced the history of the world. Rock and roll is a joke, when it comes to actually changing people's lives and making a difference. Acts as diffusion tactics instead of anything else. | |

Wasn't it "heartbreak hotel"? ..."Louie, Louie" by the Kingsmen would be a good one too. |

Agreed. Megadeth aren't influential to history itself. Also, wtf was the song elvis did on what's his face's show? |

Yankee Doodle Dandy. And how in the hell do you figure a Megadeth song influenced any society outside of the colony of fleas in some teenage metalhead's hair? |

| Luchatein | You could write about a few songs by the Beatles and other 60s bands and tell how they popularized hippie culture, and in turn caused anti-war protest. The Kent State incident would be nice to mention also. | |

| Sethomas | Buddy Holly is the American spirit? :/ | |

| Schimid |
"American Pie" by Don McLean is about the death of the American spirit, or something like that. That wouldn't be so bad, I think. Can't think of any others.

iron man. every ten year old in the world loves it, thats gotta have a world impact somehow. seriously, play that song to anyone in grade school, they'll love it. completely baffling, but strangely satisfying. |

| Sethomas | What about "I'm in the Money" and the songs of The Wizard of Oz helping people cope with the Depression? Or what about Greensleeves solidifying the movement towards the Church of England? Or what about the chansons de geste that unified the medieval vernacular languages? | |
