From ”Bandstand” to ”Hamilton”, here are tunes to listen to as you get your barbecue ready.
With Memorial Day here, we thought the time was right for us to make a list of our favorite American-themed showtunes. So give these tunes a listen, and be patriotic in a Broadway kind of way.
1. Kicking it back to the very first Hamilton song and musical performance from 2009
2. “Over There,” sung by Frances Langford and James Cagney in Yankee Doodle Dandy
3. “Welcome Home,” sung by Laura Osnes in Bandstand
4. “New York, New York,” sung by Tony Yazbeck, Jay Armstrong Johnson, and Clyde Alves in On the Town
5. “God Bless America,” sung by Kate Smith
