Some 3408 people (3407 men and one woman) have received the Congressional Medal of Honor for an act of highest valor. I know of no one being awarded it for a song. The band Restless Heart recorded a song "The Torch of Freedom" (2003) that is featured on the official web site of the Congressional Medal of Honor. A link is provided that will take the curious party to the site where the song can be heard.
