Do national myths need to be heroic? When we started virus measures (lasting two months), the government didn't invoke William Tell, instead leaning on the spirit of "Unus pro omnibus, omnes pro uno."

Two american songs that resonate most with my head-canon of the "American Dream" are:

"Coat of Many Colors" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYAdKXzGtcY

"This Land" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRnHx3yVuf4

neither of which are particularly statue-wise heroic. But it's been a long time since I've been in the States. What are some current national mythos songs there?
