Country song about people (7)
I believe the answer is:
armenia
'country' is the definition.
(Armenia is a country)
'song about people' is the wordplay.
'song' becomes 'aria' (piece of music in an opera).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'people' becomes 'men' (men are people).
'aria' placed around 'men' is 'ARMENIA'.
(Other definitions for armenia that I've seen before include "Former Russian republic, its capital Yerevan" , "Country in the Caucasus, capital Yerevan" , "Caucasian republic" , "Former Soviet republic of south-east Europe, capital Yerevan" , "Republic east of Black Sea bordering Turkey, capital Yerevan" .)
