Fourth of July: A Breakdown of America's Favorite Patriotic Songs by State

Is your favorite America-themed song "God Bless The USA"? If so, then chances are you live in Midwest or South.

At least that's according to a study conducted by Paul Lamere, director of developer platform Spotify subsidiary The Echo Nest. He looked at data from the Fourth of July 2013 to determine what song the residents of each state listened to most compared with the previous week.
