It does not nessacarily have to be any music type but it has to be about any event in history and two out of the ten required can be about a certain person and their contribution to history.
No two can be of the same artist or the same type (like national anthems for example)
I have some ideas involving Green Day and My Chemical Romance and the old classical symphony stuff. Catching my drift of where to go on this?

I'll start with bands that became noticed/prominent within the past 10-15 years... Ben Gibbard, who's been amazing with Death Cab For Cutie and The Postal Service... Conor Oberst, who's been known to write some incredibly dark and disturbed pieces of music: his main band, Bright Eyes, is evidence of this dark talent. Jenny Lewis, member of Rilo Kiley as well as The Postal Service, has some of the most honest lyrics I've heard in quite a while, whether it's with Rilo Kiley or the solo albums she's released in the past 4 years. Regina Spektor: check out (500) Days Of Summer. She has two songs on there. Amazing on piano, equally amazing voice, and GENIUS songwriter! This should be a good start for now...

I'm not a huge country fan, but the other night i woke up and the t.v was on the country music channel. 2 songs i remember:
Kenny Rogers "The Last 10 year" which i think was released this year ...and
Alan Jackson "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)" which talks about 9/11

U2 - Pride (In The Name Of Love) -> About the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.
Iron Maiden - Paschendale -> About the world war battle
*EDIT* Wow talk about bad timing. I figured I picked two more obscure songs (Paschendale especially) and I was beaten to both of them
