I loved her first- Heartland
What hurts the most -Rascal Flatts
Bless the U.S.A - Lee Greenwood
Banks of the Ohio - Bill Monroe & Doc Watson
American Soldier - Toby Keith
I keep on loving you- Reba
21 Guns - Green Day
Wake me up when September Ends - Green Day.
I am sure there are more...but for starters I am sure these would be on them. Though with my life I think I could make at least 3 movies.

Nice list you got started on. I knew someone was going to pop out the Lee Greenwood. You will have to let us know when the sequals come out.

Lee Greenwood played a lot in my life. Sports games, Christening of CVN76 (My brother is a plank owner) and who could forget Capping Ceremony in Boot Camp (where Recruits become Sailors).. I will definitely keep you posted ;)

My wife teases that this song was written for me so Don Mclean's Everybody Loves Me Baby would have to make the soundtrack...
(Spoken) One, two, three, four
Fortune has me well in hand
Armies wait at my command
My gold lies in a foreign land
Buried deep beneath the sand
The angels guide my every tread
My enemies are sick or dead
But all the victories I've led
Haven't brought you to my bed
You see, everybody loves me, baby
What's the matter with you?
Won'tcha tell me what did I do
To offend you?
Now the purest race I've bred for thee
To live in my democracy
And the highest human pedigree
Awaits the first born boy baby
And my face on every coin engraved
The anarchists are all enslaved
My own flag is forever waved
By the grateful people I have saved
You see, everybody loves me, baby
What's the matter with you?
Won'tcha tell me what did I do
To offend you?
Now, no land is beyond my claim
When land is seized in the people's name
By evil men who rob and maim
If war is hell, I'm not to blame
Why, you can't blame me I'm heaven's child
I'm the second son of Mary mild
And I'm twice removed from Oscar Wilde
But he didn't mind, why, he just smiled
Yes, and the ocean parts when I walk through
And the clouds dissolve and the sky turns blue
I'm held in very great value
By everyone I meet but you
'Cause I've used my talents as I could
I've done some bad, I've done some good
I did a whole lot better than they thought I would so
C'mon and treat me like you should
Because everybody loves me, baby
What's the matter with you?
Tell me what did I do
To offend you?
Everybody loves me, baby
What's the matter with you?
Tell me what did I do
To offend you?
Yeah, everybody loves me, baby
What's the matter with you?
Tell me what did I do
To offend you?

Frank Sinatra - That's Life
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king / I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing / Each time I find myself flat on my face / I pick myself up and get back in the race.

I think I would just toss in the whole soundtrack from "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly", and call it quits.

One of my favorite songs here. But as most pointed out 1 song could not cover it.
