−
|{{invi|Loe}}
 
−
|A patriotic song written and published as sheet music in 1942; Kay Kyser's recording came out in 1943. This rousing tune is about a chaplain (called a "sky pilot" in the song) who is with some men on a warship in the heat of a battle. One of the soldiers asks the chaplain to pray for the men shooting at the enemy aircraft. In response, the chaplain puts down his Bible, mans one of the gun turrets on the ship, and begins firing at the planes himself, and tells the soldiers, "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition, and we'll all stay free!" Beyond the obvious pro-Christian and pro-American messages, it also tells us that sometimes, the Lord calls on us to put down the Bible and pick up our guns to defend the American way.  #1 hit on the ''Billboard'' charts.

|Patriotism makes a comeback in response to the 1970's triple whammy of double-digit inflation, unemployment, and mortgage interest rates (giving rise to the misery index), along with the fallout from Watergate and the then on-going Iran hostage crisis and Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

|This song tells of the potential of doing the right thing and overcoming one's inner darkness, to become a "point of light" and that anyone from all over America can be heroes (from firefighters and police officers to average citizens). The song also promotes charity and fellowship, examples being feeding the hungry, giving the homeless shelter, and helping people find hope. Conservative-leaning teachers are also portrayed positively for teaching children in school about good morals.

|A song that might very well be about the hope Christianity offers the world. The person the singer talks with can be construed as a cynical atheist who has a sad outlook on life due to his lack of belief in a higher power. The singer on the other hand still has hope, as she knows there is a God. In the final lines she sings about flying over horses. This might interpreted to mean that like all of mankind she too experienced physical death, but due her belief in Jesus found her way onto Heaven.

The song also came out in 1966, a time when many counterculture people were holding military personnel, secret agents, police officers, and firemen in contempt, and singing negative songs about them. However, because this song was the exact opposite of that, it gets extra points! This song was also used as the theme for the 1960–68 British action/adventure/mystery TV series "Danger Man", which was broadcast in the United States as "Secret Agent".

|The classic oratorio, especially popular around Christmastime, praises the Son who saved humanity by telling the stories of the Prophets who foretold his coming to earth, the annunciation to the shepherds of Christ's birth, the Passion of Christ, and finally the resurrection of the dead and Christ's glorification in heaven.

== Debatable Whether Conservative ==

Included among the top five in a poll of the greatest songs in the 20th century, according to the Recording Industry Association of America and the [[NEA]], are the following:
 
−
 
−
*"Over the Rainbow" (Judy Garland)
 
−
*"White Christmas" (Bing Crosby)
 
−
*"Respect" (Aretha Franklin)
 
−
*"[[American Pie]]" ([[Don McLean]])
 
−
 
−
Also questionable:
 
−
 
−
*"Born in the U.S.A." (Bruce Springsteen) - the title and refrain appears to be pro-American, but some of the lyrics are not
 
−
*"Glory Days." (Bruce Springsteen) - the song talks about the good old days of the American Dream
 
−
*"Hammer to Fall" (Queen) - talks about being hopeful for the Soviet Union falling
 
−
*"Rocky Raccoon" (The Beatles) - has multiple references to Gideon's Bible
 
−
*"Taxman" (The Beatles)  - protests against the tax grabs of British [[Labour Party|Labour]] Prime Minister [[Harold Wilson]], but the band's members themselves were espousing liberal views at the time; at least one of the surviving members, Paul McCartney, continues to do so today.
 
−
*"Been to Hell" (Hollywood Undead)-Despite the large amount of swearing, it talks about the destructive nature of Hollywood, including how Hollywood and the quest for fame can cause someone to lose their faith. It also criticizes Hollywood values.
 
−
*"Only the Good Die Young" (Billy Joel)-a boy tries to convince a [[Roman Catholic Church|Catholic]] girl to have sex with him rather than practice [[abstinence]]. Although it contains a lot of anti-religious dialogue (from the boy's perspective), in the end the girl holds true to her values, and nothing happens between them.
 
−
*[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5aMMRes2u4 "Still the One"] by Orleans - a very good song about marital fidelity. However, one of the singers, John Hall, later became a Democratic Congressman from New York and sued Republican presidential candidate [[John McCain]] over the use of the song
 
−
*"My Sweet Lord" (George Harrison) - Love for religion and having a relationship with God even uses hallelujah, though many Hindu undertones; Harrison also unconsciously plagiarized two other songs, the Chiffons' 1963 doo-wop song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NkEWGuT-u8 "He's So Fine"] and the Edwin Hawkins Singers' 1967 [[gospel music|gospel]] song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpEpokoaZWU "Oh Happy Day"], in writing his song.
 
−
*"Where is the Love" (Black Eyed Peas) - Main message questioning why are people ignoring their Christian beliefs, and asking for Help from church and God. Condemns both racism, and terrorism, and also claims the idea of joining gangs and doing drugs is wrong.  However it also dis promotes the idea of war, and promotes peace making.
 
−
*"Grow a Pear" (Kesha) -Song's message is manning up, but the singer Kesha is a pro-LGBT [[homosexual agenda]] activist.
 
−
*"All My Friends (Snakehips)" - the song's message is how terrible clubs actually are, instead of the hype that's falsely given to them. However, the song is explicit. Sample lyric: "All my friends are wasted, and I hate this club and I drink too much; another Friday night I've wasted.."
 
−
*"Stranger in Moscow ." (Michael Jackson) - the song criticizes communism
