4th of July celebration complaint

I attended a fireworks show last night in Idaho Falls, ID (allegedly the biggest west of the Mississippi). A local radio station choregraphed music to go with the fireworks. And of course it was sprinkled throughout with patriotic sentiment and references to 9/11. But then the music. We get "We Will Rock You" by Queen. Any other year fine but Queen is a BRITISH group. Then we get God Bless America (no I'm not ranting God) sung by Celine Dion who is frigging CANADIAN. ARRRRGHHHHH!!. How about some American songs by American artists.

Zamboni, what are you complaining about? I went to our street fair yesterday and about half of the music was in Spanish!

Well, listening to anything by Celine Dion is enough to get me to jam a spoon through my ears ...

She is a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice and by the number of records she sells in the United States alone she can't be that bad.

Repeated listenings of "My Heart Will Go On" (damn RADIO!) have biased me against the evil woman!

Whatcha' bellyaching about? Our own national anthem is sung to the tune of an old English drinking song.

I have been offically boycotting Celine Dion ever since her last CD was released and encoding prevents you from playing it on your computer. It will literally make yoru computer crash if you do so attempt it.

I liked her before that.. but yes, that Titanic song got horrid after a while.

I listened to SOUTHERN ROCK most of that night. I have a pretty good selection of FM stations to choose from while patrolling.
