Choosing Hillary’s Campaign Anthem: A Musical Journey

The worst-kept secret in American politics is out: Hillary Clinton is officially in the race for president. Now, she faces a pivotal choice: selecting her campaign theme song.

Why talk about a theme song when Clinton is still shaping her campaign narrative? A song can set the tone for her entire campaign. Back in 2008, Clinton faced backlash when she picked the lackluster “You and I” by Celine Dion. Meanwhile, Barack Obama’s campaign made waves with the inspiring “Yes We Can” video featuring will.i.am and others. Talk about a mic drop moment!

Clinton understands the impact a great song can have on a campaign. In 1992, Bill Clinton’s use of Fleetwood Mac’s “Don’t Stop” paired with a recovering economy helped him win the presidency. Though some joked that a more fitting anthem might have been “Love the One You’re With” given the rumors swirling around Bill’s fidelity.

This election cycle hasn’t been without its own musical faux pas. Senator Ted Cruz referenced John Lennon’s “Imagine” in his announcement speech but later admitted he distanced himself from rock music after 9/11. Senator Rand Paul’s campaign kickoff was derailed when he couldn’t clear the rights to “Shutting Down Detroit” by John Rich, resulting in a YouTube removal.

After consulting our in-house music experts, we’ve curated a list of potential songs that could help Hillary reclaim her spot at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Here we go…

1. Katy Perry’s “Roar”: Perry, an enthusiastic supporter, even expressed on Instagram her willingness to write a song for Hillary after diving into her biography, Hard Choices. This empowering anthem could serve as a modern-day “I Am Woman.” Just imagine Clinton channeling her inner tiger to keep Elizabeth Warren from entering the fray!
2. Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off”: Perhaps Clinton could take a cue from Swift, who effortlessly silences her critics with grace. The only hitch? We suspect Clinton’s dance moves might resemble those of Elaine Benes… expect some awkward wrist turns!
3. Idina Menzel’s “Let it Go”: There’s a striking similarity between Clinton’s chilly interactions with the media and the icy demeanor of Elsa. Just like the snow queen, Hillary seems unaffected by her past, ready to move forward.
4. Stevie Nicks’ “Stand Back”: The iconic singer has seen a resurgence in popularity lately, and choosing a Nicks song would resonate with the last successful Clinton administration. Written on the day of her marriage and inspired by Prince’s “Little Red Corvette,” “Stand Back” remains a powerful anthem. Nicks herself has admitted she’s unsure what the song means, but its fierce tone could set the stage perfectly. If Clinton wins, perhaps she could persuade Stevie to perform “Landslide” at the inauguration—now that’s an event we’d love to see!
