Let's get musical! What song did the War of 1812 inspire?

Francis Scott Key was inspired by the Battle of Baltimore at the American Fort McHenry to write the "Star-Spangled Banner". He was being held on a British ship and watching the battle from a distance, waiting to see if the American flag was still flying, which would mean the U.S. had held the fort. As one might expect, "the flag was still there".
