Can a song be a secondary source?

by itchesreallybad

I'm doing a history kit for one of my grad classes and we have to include a certain amount of primary/secondary sources. As my theme is American attitudes towards communism and the Soviet Union, I thought I would include the song Viet Nam by The Minutemen (released several years after the end of US intervention). Would that count as a secondary source?

Wouldn't that be a primary source for the attitude of The Minutemen to the war? If I use Catullus or Horace or some other poetry, I treat it as primary.

What would it be secondary to?
