While reading a post on a BBC blog I learned the following:
Tired of listening to “God Bless America” (which he thought unrealistic and complacent apparently), Woody Guthrie wrote and published “This Land is Your Land” in 1945.
I hate the fact they play “God Bless America” during baseball games and I like Woody Guthrie even more now that I know that he didn’t like “God Bless America.” Read a lot of details about “This Land is Your Land” on Wikipedia.
