100. Andrew W.K. - Party Hard

The sonic equivalent of shotgunning on a Four Loko, Party Hard is of this unique blend of dumb that is so stupid, it might actually be smart. Chances are, Andrew W.K. won’t win a Nobel Prize for the lyrics of his signature hit (or any other of his songs, really), but no song managed to encapsulate the spirit of doing donuts in an empty grocery store’s parking lot like this one.

99. Eminem - Lose Yourself

Lose Yourself was the exact moment when Eminem was seen as more than just a goofy troublemaker, yet it’s a shame it is now only remembered for being the official White Bros™ anthem and for its infamous “mom’s spaghetti” bit. Put back in context though, it is a textbook demonstration of the “Started from the bottom now

After the golden years of the 90’s with grunge and alternative, nu metal was now infecting the airwaves. Thankfully, a new rock revolution was about to kick in, and The Hives sure helped to open the door. With a strong garage rock band vibe and a bass breakdown for the ages, Hate To Say I Told You So became a cultural landmark, turning Sweden as the new “it” spot to watch for guitar-driven fun.

96. La Roux - Bulletproof

Pop music by the end of the decade became more and more electronic. While it led the way for some quite generic and annoying radio hits (here’s looking at you, Black Eyed Peas), it did open the door to some brilliant synthetic numbers. Bulletproof sounds like a mad video game and it’s easy to see singer Elly Jackson as the hero, a red-haired Samus defeating whoever tried to give her trouble in a spaceship, or something like that.

95 - The Unicorns - I Was Born (A Unicorn)

The fact that the opening riff on I Was Born (A Unicorn) sounds like a sped up version of Spongebob Squarepants’ closing credits is fitting. On their cotton candy manifesto, The Unicorns rise through failures and underachievement to become the undisputed heroes of their own

    The Civil War’s conclusion was just but the beginning of a reconstruction period that while remained militaristically peaceful, had a long, arduous road of rebuilding the union. Rising out of poverty in the south, Andrew Johnson, took office following Lincoln’s assassination and now faced the seemingly insurmountable task of mending a split nation. However after Johnson 's continuation of Lincoln 's approach to reconstruction, consisting of lenient policy regarding the South and widespread amnesty, radical republicans who favored stricter terms for the South were infuriated (Severance). Tensions between the two contradicting sides grew as neither parties were willing to compromise and the issue culminated in the impeachment of Andrew Johnson,…

    Andrew O Hagen Analysis

    The quote ”A good nationalism has to depend on a principle of the common people, on the myths of a struggling commonality”express the fact that a nation is built on the coming together of common citizens as well as establishing a feeling of struggling. This feeling creates an environment where our society feels it must work hard to keep the nation together. Andrew O’Hagen has taken the reality of different nations in our world and has put them into one sentence. Andrew O'Hagen's view is one of that may be controversial due to the fact that it completely embraces the ideological factor of nationalism where a nation is defined under specific rules and not defined by the diversity of the citizens. A nation under his perspective may be considered more of an ethnic nation which is a nation where there is one common culture, race and religion compared to a civic nation where there a combination of cultures, races and religions.…

    With the recent election, were you unable to relate to either of the presidential candidates? Most American citizens wished that there was another candidate, capable of winning, running because both candidates were so extreme. This dilemma occurred because of the two-party system, which runs the United States. If the United States was run by a multi-party system or a system by which no parties were present then there would be a very low chance that Donald Trump would be president due to how intensely the people dislike him. With a recent poll, about 14% of America thinks that the federal government works.…

    Beginning with the election of 1848, America began to see the dismantlement of the long-standing two party system as it no longer met the needs of the American people. Slavery became a central issue of upcoming presidential and congressional elections alike; people were no longer voting for the party they might have previously aligned with but rather for the party and candidate that most closely shared their views on the issue of slavery. The old party system didn’t address this issue as successfully as the nation needed, as can be seen with the Whig party, a once power political group, that quickly fell apart as slavery became more and more of a national concern. As the years progressed, and the issue of slavery became more and more polarizing,…

    Past Hollywood, the Space Race influenced other forms of popular culture in the 50s and 60s, ranging from music to cartoons to architectural design and fashion. Directly created from the Space Age was the introduction of Space Age Pop, also known as Bachelor Pad Music . Rather than fear and mistrust present during this era, Space Age Pop communicated a more optimist point-of-view of the time period, using the post-war economic and technologic boom and humanity’s ventures into space as fuel to create exotic styles and futuristic electronic sounds. Albums incorporated such futuristic and “out of this world” pictures on their covers. The United States was not the only ones creating similar style music, but Mexico and Japan as well.…
