(That moment when your state joined a country, but never gets involved in revolutions because we're too busy selling oranges and collecting money from tourist's, slowly becoming a monopoly that will rule the world...) Singapore?

Singapore? I definitely should know the reference, but it is not Singapore. We left the Malaysian Federation on 9th August 1965.

Hong Kong? Apparently it is the 11th largest orange exporter, admirable given its land mass.

American Revolution by far.
Second would either be the Texan Revolution or the Latin American Revolutions. Hard to say because the Texans were a great story, a people who came west to get a new life only to decide to follow in their fore fathers in the American Revolution by fighting for independence from the tyranny under Santa Anna until the Texans under General Houston defeated them at San Jacinto. Simon Bolivar was also a great story though, with him crossing the Andes Mountains with his men and, against all odds, taking control of the Viceroyaltys of Peru and New Granada while José de San Martin and Bernardo O'Higgins liberated Chile and Argentina from foreign rule as well.

Note: Santa Anna was a man😂

Revolution of songs, while very few people died or were injured during it, most of the action was freeing Baltic states from Molotovs-Ribentrops pact with mostly songs and diplomacy although there were some military operations and some real action like chases and fire fights, it turned out in less of a conflict than people could hope for, as you may know there were 5 meter high barricades in Riga, Vilnius, Tallin and other important Baltic cities.

I looked up revolution of songs in three different search engines and nothing came up.

If you mean the singing revolution in the baltics it had nothing to do with the M-R Pact. In fact it happened in the 80s.

It is directly bound with it, because of the M-R pact Baltic states were under soviet occupation until 1990/91

They have nothing to do with each other.
