* "American Woman," originally by The Guess Who, painted the U.S. as Flavor 2. Then Lenny Kravitz [[Covered Up|covered it up]] with a funk remix and a music video with American flags, hot girls on choppers and muscle cars, and [[Heather Graham]] dancing on top of a bus. Because of that, it's today regarded as more Flavor 1 in style regardless of its lyrics. Incidentally, The Guess Who claimed ''American Woman'' was never intended to be anti-American in the first place.
** Considering the man who wrote the song later took American citizenship, [[This Troper]] is inclined to believe them.
* The song [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1VTcJfL7RE Hollywood] by Marina and the Diamonds provides a subversion. The visuals and constant reference to the American Dream are in the patriotic, freedom-searching-immigrants, dream-granting ideal of America—but the message is negative, causing a sort of [[Stepford Smiler]] result.
* [[Blur (band)|Blur]]'s song "Magic America", which is about a man who moves to America entirely because of this view of the country.
