Weinig continenten die zo tot de verbeelding spreken als Amerika. This Is America van Childish Gambino komt deze week de Top 40 binnen en is al de 22e hit met het woord 'America' in de titel. En dan tellen we woorden als 'Amerika' en 'American' nog niet eens mee. Hieronder volgen de vier grootste America-hits.
1 America - Razorlight
All my life
Watching America
All my life
There's panic in America
Oh oh oh oh
There's trouble in America
Oh oh oh oh
2 This Is Not America - David Bowie/Pat Metheny Group
Little piece of you
A little peace in me will die
This is not a miracle
For this is not America
Blossom fails to bloom this season
Promise not to stare too long
This is not America
For this is not the miracle
3 Kids In America - Kim Wilde
Downtown the young ones are going
Downtown the young ones are growing
We're the kids in America
We're the kids in America
Everybody lives for the music-go-round
4 Winter In America - René Froger
Winter in America is cold
And I just keep growing older
I wish I could have known
Enough of love
To leave love enough alone
