An Unorthodox Soundtrack to the United States: Reconstructed [Photo Credits: Brent Faulkner, The Musical Hype, Pexels, Pixabay, Unsplash]After deconstructing ‘An Unorthodox Soundtrack to the United States’ by region, we reconstruct it with all its random, colorful facts & such.

On July 3, 2020, I published a gargantuan list, 🎧An Unorthodox Soundtrack to the United States.  This list featured one song representing each state, and some ‘extras’ you might say.  Even with the entire list being robust, more individual facts and commentary could’ve been included.  Honestly, as I spent a couple of days assembling An Unorthodox Soundtrack to the United States, part of me wanted to release it in parts, say by regions. The five regions of the United States, of course, are Northeast, Midwest, Southeast, Southwest, and West.  However, at the same time, I wanted the list to be released for the 4th of July 2020, a goal I made.

But still, there’s so much more that can be said about individual states, so, why not go for a deconstruction of the gargantuan list? Since 4th of July 2020 is past, there was no rush to publish. So, I broke down An Unorthodox Soundtrack to the United States into regions – how it’s already organized – and added some more facts, songs, trivia, and such.  Check out the five deconstructions below that ultimately construct  🎧 AN UNORTHODOX SOUNDTRACK TO THE UNITED STATES: RECONSTRUCTED!
