What about the song What is America to Me by Sinatra or America the Beautiful? As for movies…how about all day with John Wayne?

on question 10 none of the above was the answer to pick if you wanted to watch a fireworks display in something other than a crime ridden city.

54% similar.
For #4, I picked The Star Spangled Banner because, well... c'mon, it's the Star Spangled Banner.
But I must admit I really like the song, "America" by Neil Diamond. The way it builds up, is just majestic, and very patriotic.

So true

I don't think I've ever seen so many "none of the above" picks. And I think question #2 is missing an obvious choice.

Sadly yet another mass shooting in this country. 6 dead and 30 wounded as they gathered to watch a Fourth of July parade. How many more times must we send prayers for the victims of this madness?

"None of the above" seems to be the most popular answer and for me too. Those choices for fireworks destinations seem to be kinda unsafe, crazy cities. So "none of the above" for sure. I have to go to work bright and early on July 5th (I worked on July 4th as well) so not so much destination celebrations. A quiet, sincere celebration on the home front for me 🧨🇺🇲🎆🇺🇸

Hit None of the Above for most of them and got 78%. As a note, they omitted Watermelons under Go-to Treats. I happened to see many people walking out of the store with large watermelons.

That question also needs another option--none of the above definitely needs to be followed or preceded by yes, please! (Pass the popcorn, would you?)

Last question: On the beach anywhere from Gulf Shores, Alabama to Panama City Beach, Florida.

No "US Blues" by the Grateful Dead?

What piece of music am I listening to on the Fourth? Why it is the most iconic piece of music there is, sometimes with live canons. It is the "Overture of 1812" of course. Every fireworks display is NOT COMPLETE until the "Overture of 1812" is played, and canons are optional, of course.
