    Both Asia and America had great songs, but I think America has more classics that has stuck around longer.

    Is it just a coincidence that the three worst bands in recorded history are named after continents?

    I was reading Neil Young's biography a while back and when "A Horse With No Name" hit #1 on the pop charts, Neil's dad called him to congratulate him on having the #1 song, LOL!

    Eurasia :) But even more intriguing is what is the best song named after a continent? I'm going Diamond's "we're coming to America".....Today!!

    I want to vote Europe for Final Countdown which I would not appreciate if not for the Arrested Development reference. But I genuinely do like Horse w/ No Name. Not to mention there is one scene in Newsradio where the office catches a recording of Dave singing that song in his recorder. America ftw. USA! USA! USA! Don't be a terrorist, it's got to be America.

    America is two continents and should be voided from this conversation.

    PS...US won't get the 2018 WC.

    For some reason I get Asia and Toto mixed up. I was thinking Asia sang "Africa", but they don't. I guess Asia has "Heat of the Moment" and maybe another hit or so. I have to put "Heat" above "Countdown", I think.

    All the bands named after continents are made up of members who are now incontinent.
