Musically, the Battle Hymn of the Republic is a much more appealing.
The music is very simple in both cases. But they didn't have much to go with domestically. The best music was all being produced in Europe. A lot of US songs were just different lyrics set to British tunes.
It was the same with literature. All US music, art and literature was considered inferior because it was. That's why the rich in the US sent their kids on 'The Grand Tour'.
