This song is very pretty and very simple. Unlike the Indian drums, this song is relaxing and almost sad in a way. This song comes from an album called "Earth Spirit" so, I imagine this song has some sort of spiritual meaning behind it.
For this song the artist was trying to get across a point in the Indian's time when things were not too great. And just like the early Americans the Indians as well struggled. Maybe they were experiencing a famine, or some kind of disease. This song is not a pump it up song, it is most likely played with some sort of sadness, or in attempt to calm. This song also represents a time when the Indians were the main inhabitants of America, but not one of the happier times. This song plays into America's story because it represents kind of the sadness and grief of a time in the Indian's life, and through the years of America, we put the Indians through a lot of struggle
