- Memorial song for Maj. Audie Murphy, the most decorated soldier in WWII. I wrote this song in 1972 in the BOQ at Ft. Knox one year after Audie passed. That was not a popular time for the military and the general public hardly noticed his passing.
The recording was an acetate demo of the song I made later that year in Hollywood. It was recorded in one take with no editing and no effects but a little reverb.
I dedicate this song to all who have given their lives in defense of our unique American Liberty.
May God Bless Them All!
What a beautiful song for a beautiful man. There will NEVER be another like Audie Murphy.
RIP Major Murphy. Bravery and devotion to duty have nothing to do with physical stature. You are a true American hero from the greatest generation. You helped defeat fascism and tyranny.
If there were a man more worthy, He never wanted for recognition, a hero and man of many talents. Thanks Audie for serving....and for Giving us these fabulous movies to enjoy for years to come..
GREAT things can come from small things. Awesome Underdog….
Love Audie, I have ptsd 2
It's nice to hear your voice. I loved Murphy as a kid.
Audie Murphy! One of a kind, He will always be remembered and holds a special place in the hearts of every true lover of freedom. Greatly missed but never forgotten.
I grew up in the 50's and vividly remember Audie Murphy. Great soldier and great American. We need more like him today. Thank you for writing such a beautiful song in his honor.
Thank you for your encouragement! People like him need to be remembered!
I think we still have men like him today. I just read his book. Very moving.
@@jujutsucop who wrote and sang this song?
@@saintolga1 I wrote this song in 1972. I recorded this demo later that year in Hollywood. One take, live, with my old Martin guitar!
I just came from Colmar where Audie Murphy put his stand up against the Germans. Fantastic
What a beautiful tribute to a Great American Hero.
Just found this. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to respond. It means a lot to me personally but it also means you resonate with my love for a man of my mother's generation who truly represented patriotism and nobility despite the things he suffered both in the war and after the war. Do we have any more like him?
Great song, just listened to it on Veterans day, Reminds us of all the great heroes that have fought for America.
Audie was my favorite Western movie star. God Bless all of our service men and women on this veteran's day.
Thank you! Sorry for not replying sooner - but I'm very encouraged!
My eyes are leaking … love Audie. I put him down at first. I was a judging idiot..
Awesome song and tribute to an incredible man, soldier, and human being R.I.P.
may he r i p and his legend live on
Love Audie Murphy! I discovered him through his old western movies (which I still watch) and then learned what a great American and hero he was!
I had not heard this before today. I cried like a baby. I watched 3 of his films today and I'm still buying his dvds. Thank you for this. I miss this fine man very much. RIP Murph
I am glad to hear this touched you. As you can imagine, I feel deeply about him and all those of the 'greatest generation.' Both my parents were WWII Navy Vets.
Makes me want to cry every time I hear it. Thank God some one wrote something so absolutely perfect for such
a deserving man,
My eyes are leaking a lot. Love Audie
I am ever so grateful that you posted this beautiful touching song, "Audie Murphy's Song "....
I just stumbled across it and it has brought me to tears, I miss Audie so deeply still....
Audie was my larger than life true hero and the day he passed rocked and shocked me to my very core...
I still admire, respect, love and honour Major Audie Leon Murphy to this very day for he is the greatest
American real life hero that graced the earth in modern times.... Such a humble man all his life, a giant of a man....
He placed his own life on the line to protect his own men as an eighteen year old in WWll holding his
ground, standing upon a burning US Tank Destroyer and not letting the enemy gain an inch of ground....
For this he was bestowed the greatest honour of them all that America could give, The Medal of Honour, 33 medals in total...
Few men go down in history for their great deeds to country, Major Audie Leon Murphy is indeed one of those such men
to remain in the history books for generations to come after him, always to be respected and remembered....
I feel such gratitude for Audie's sacrifice of those few short years in his life to fight for what he believed was
his humble duty to country, Army service, although those years were to torment him for the rest of his life...
My humble prayer is that Audie Leon Murphy, REST IN ETERNAL PEACE KNOWING HE PLAYED HIS PART IN LIFE
FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM FOR HIS COUNTRY AND THE REST OF THE FREE WORLD.... LOVED, MISSED REMEMBERED STILL.
Edith, thank you so much for your heartfelt response to my song. I'm sure you can tell my feelings run deep for Audie and for all who have given all or part of their lives in defense of our precious freedom! Thanks for subscribing also!
@@jujutsucop Thoughts run deep, I feel so proud of what you did here, my tears still fall the greatest man who graced the earth in my book.... Thank you from the very depths of my heart and soul....
Audie Leon Murphy will always remain deep within my heart and soul and as long as we all keep
remembering this awesome LITTLE GIANT of a man Audie will never be forgotten, "LEST WE FORGET".....
Thank you ever so much, as I play this over and over again I have such a full heart and am so very
grateful, you have made the end of 2018 a very happy one for me in remembering Audie Leon Murphy.
EDITH SYMMANS also when his best friend was shot cuz there were German soldiers pretending to surrender then soldier from inside a abandon house shot him and Audie Murphy out a a fit of rage killed the Germans that played the trick and used their machine gun to kill the rest of the Germans there
I love this - he was my favourite actor as a child & then i grew up & forgot him, majnly due to a hit & run which could have killed me,
........but your song has really moved me, & i am now learning more about America's greatest war hero, the real captain america.
We need more women to be good & raise more brave Audie's as WW3 now looms.
Thank you for taking time to reply to this. I really appreciate knowing if I have touched someone's heart.
What a wonderful song of remembrance for a truly great man. It brought tears to my eyes. While growing up in the late '50's, I recall many times when Audie Murphy's name would come up and the great respect and honor my family felt towards him. Thank you.
Thank you so much! It's wonderful how many people remember this man and what men like him did and still do for our country!
SummerRain368 uh
Thank you for your encouragement. I'm sorry it took so long to respond - been in radiation treatments etc but I'm fine now!
Prayers for you to recovery quickly and completely
This needs to be spread around!
This is me as well lol
Omg, he is one of the angels now in Heaven. Trully a hero!
Is there any chance you might do a video on how to play this on guitar?
This is my second favorite song about this legend, and it is just so heartfelt like this is just so amazing
Until today, I only knew of Audie Murphy the actor. Somehow I stumbled upon his military record, and then this song. What a beautiful song for a great, great hero!
a true American hero , every dead veteran is and all will be missed .
I read about the plane crash and his passing in the newspaper. At the time I really only knew him as a actor and really like him in that capacity , I didn't have any idea of what a hero he was. But I decided I wanted to find out more about him. I was astounded at what I found out and how he was our most decorated hero of WW2 and how he displayed such monumental courage at such a young age in such a horrific war, of his humble beginnings and how he took care of his family, how loyal he was to them, his country, his friends. And that he was also a songwriter. He was an amazing humble man, and I so wish I could have met him, if only for a few minutes.
wonderful life....he is the best model to the world
Brooks, this is beautifully done. A terrific tribute to a terrific man. This isn't one of those cheap flash-in-the-pan formula songs that artists crank out on all the time. This really tugs on the heart strings and is memorable. Beautifully sung. Beutifully accompanied by guitar. Wow! Great job!
Can't tell you how encouraging it is to hear you say that! I wrote it from my heart and it's nice to hear from hearts that resonate!
Thanks.
Hiking along the Appalachian trail way up on Brush mountain in Virginia. You will come across his monument of Audi Murphy. Along with the alters of fallen soldiers by the score. Very spiritual.
This is a beautiful tribute to a great hero. Thank you for posting this.
Wow amassing!!
I grew up on Audie Murphy movies.
Thank you what a perfect job you did with this video....
grata!
Salute.
And returned!
He fought for our freedom and our democracy for which every American must be steadfast in the face of dictators and foreign governments interferring in our elections.
Wouldn't it be interesting to interview him on today's events?
I'm related to him
I am as well!
Thank you
Another good song about him is to hell and back by sabaton and his son actually listened to it and gave the band a poster of one of Audie Murphy’s movies also called to hell and back
Great song, I also wrote Americas Un sung Hero. I am a country singer here in Australia. Jonnie Russell
Sounds like we are kindred spirits. I'll visit your page. Thanks for your encouragement.
Nice man
Great actor
Most decorated American soldier world war II and all the branches, USArmy
Un gran ejemplo, dios quiera tenerlo en su seno, integridad absoluta,,
Gracias!
Very brave man. I just wish there was a way to honor every man who stood up for what was right. Id like to use this song one day. Not sure how I could but If I can make it more popular Id like to. Can I get permission from the creator?
Matthew Hamel well I used blender to make a little animation about Audie Murphy. Maybe it will touch some more people!
Who wrote and sang this?
Today January 6 2021 America has fallen in my opinion. This is our darkest hour and I can’t help but think, if we fully fall, we’re all the sacrifices made by men like Audie Murphy pointless? Will they have died in vein? We are no longer represented by our government. And the ones we thought did betrayed us! ):
I'm heartbroken with what I'm seeing as well. I watched a video by Schwarzenegger this morning that broke my heart because he was literally comparing the capitol breach with Crystal Nacht in Germany and equating Trump with Hitler. It is like reading 1984. Those who control the narrative rewrite history as they will. It is in God's hands now.
@@jujutsucop I was extremely disappointed as well! The entire left and most of the right is infuriating! I really really don't know if there will be a way to recover from this! We have been losing our country slowly for the last 50+ years to the left and I don't know if now we will ever get another shot with how they like to rig elections. I hope we can all stand strong and retake our government and make sure people like Audie Murphy didn't die in vain! I think this may be the USA's darkest hour!
Sorry I took so long to get back to you, brother. I'm 72 and this is the second coup d'état I've seen in my lifetime. Same people, same motive killed JFK and the RFK. Only God can turn this around. Pray that we have not fallen too far.
@@jujutsucop I hope we do not pass into the history books like so many before us. I'm 20 now and don't want to have to live in a decaying society. If we do not handle our insane national debt stop printing money stop electing socialists, and defeat the Chi-Comms I don't this the future is very bright
for the Mighty USA.
@@jujutsucop I hope we pull through! After all, we are the last best hope of mankind!
A true amercian hero, a man to remember
Has anyone noticed how much he looked like John Kennedy up close?
They don't make them like that anymore ,he broke the mode .
The month of June a month that our government has made special to us all it’s gay pride month 80 years ago this month on the beaches of Normandy France 16 1718 summoner 20s even older men who lied to enlist and lied to enlist on the beaches of Normandy The month of June the month of June I say it three times the month of June every day this month every day this month a young American name should be drawn from a hat that it can show by their past military records that they died in combat or for reasons related to combat And each day we should pull a name out of that hat to remember that 80 years ago this month thousand upon thousands of young boys and girls and the all as well their name should be red where they may have passed and possibly under what conditions each day for the month of June a new name will be pulled from the hat, but let’s stop right there at our pride parade. Look at the hats they’re wearing I would say clothes because most of them are wearing any and when you say something like I’m just said to a young person in this country, they give you back a blank stare they have no idea what you’re talking about. We don’t teach our young pride and honor that each one of these days and this month of June that were showing so much pride oh excuse me that piece of paper you just stepped on during your pride parade, I picked it up. It’s a small article that had been born across the street by the winds of time and on was a name of a 17 year-old American who died on the beaches of Normandy but that’s all right. I’ll just wind it up and throw it over here in the trash, or you go parading along showing your pride God save this nation
This is my second favorite song about this legend, and it is just so heartfelt like this is just so amazing
