Sung it "perfectly"?? He already botched it before AND Had a podium right in front of him, WITH the lyrics, When he screwed it up the 1st time. So not only did he not deserve a do-over. He did SUCH a DISHONOR to the USA. So any officer, or anyone for that matter that's going to see the Star Spangled Banner should NOT get "a do over". Especially when he disrespected the US the way this schmuck did Not once, but twice. Then his due over he gets a popular pop singer to help him and then has an entire gospel singing behind him, that's doing the song a lot more justice than he did. So good to know where our tax paying dollars "are going"...Tyrant cops that are NOT ONLY screwing up the national anthem, the MOST important song that this country stands for. But cops disgraced their own PDS by violating people's rights all the time. This guy is a total Disgrace.
"Poor ______" in this instance is an expression, not the dude is *literally* poor. It means they feel bad for him. They said poor man because they felt bad.
I, like many others, laughed, when I saw the original video. But doing the song over shows he is able to laugh at his own silly mistakes (in his line of work, there are far greater things to be serious about!). He seems to have such great heart and character.
ladyofwisdom2 very positive to hear someone say something very sweet for a retired officer at least, tired of all these negative comments down below, glad someone appreciates the effort, tbh I didn't look at how he was singing, I'm all about listening to their courage and the fact that they never give up and that they don't care what people think of them, they'll just do it no matter the criticism of others, negative energy ALWAYS costs in the end, I respect and admire positivity the most!! God bless everyone ❤️
@@Vincent-bu6bj But here’s the thing...He’s NOT singing in front of Times Square. He’s standing in front of the choir who’s singing in front of Times Square!
@@paisleyprincess7996 umm no I believe he is standing in front of the chrior singing in times square if you could see better than maybe you'd be able to see that
Why yall makin fun of him he said he not a good singer but atleast he went back out and tried yall probrably couldn't get out and sing it but I think he did a great job
Dang , I remember I would listen to his anthem fail over and over and over, AND OVER AGAIN and just laugh my ass off because it was so funny. I'm glad he got a DoItOver chance to resing the national anthem.
Kudos to this man for not giving up. 3/4 of the world and the people in it would have NEVER re done that MUCH LEAS DO IT OVER IN PUBLIC ANDDDD NATIONAL TELEVISION. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BROTHER!! Stay focused !
I admire the fact that he had the stones to get in front of everyone to sing it. But I'm shocked that he was grown as hell but didn't know the song. We learned it in elementary school.
Great job sir. My husband Jim worked at hamilton co. Sheriff's department in Chattanooga Tn for 15 yrs. Keep learning to sing and continue to sing and be happy, God bless you thankyou for your service
This was shameful that a police officer didn’t know the anthem. I am from another country and I know the American national anthem just from hearing it.
Really disappointed that they choir drown him out... its not "redemption" when no one can hear you. But GOOD JOB Ezra for standing up and giving it a second try.
He aged a lot for just 8 years. First video is from 2006, this was from 2014... He was 53 so there, he was 61... He aged so much for only 8 years... Weird
I have a feeling those disgusting officers who persuaded him to sing The Star Spangled Banner did it deliberately, in hopes that he would flub-up the song-knowing all the while that he couldn't sing well.
All the choir did was drown him out and he received a trophy for time filled....playing with his mental psych😏imo and what was he like his son in the first clip compared to pops now? Stress from wanting his do over. God bless him.
He didn't need to do this, he already sung it perfectly.
No-
🤣

He looks like he aged 20 years tf how old is that video
The fail was from 2006, and this is from 2014 as shown by the upload date.
I mean we're now 14 years deep... we were 12 deep when your comment hit, -&&- law enforcement is surely a tough, aging job on most days.
Ohh -&&- excuse me, YAYYYY to quarantine -&&- RUclips who has graciously🤔 helped us live thru the 2020 quarantine.

Facts
“We gave him a chance to do it over” ... what, like 50 years later?
Well hey, at least you can’t say it wasn’t 50 years better
Better late than never, same with my reply.
😂😂
It was 6 years late
@@robertoorrego4374 it looked like he went from age 40 to 60.
Poor man...sang national anthem badly at local event once, had to sing it in Times Square and in front of the nation to make up for it lol
If he failed this, he would have to sing it at the United Nations Conference
The old video is going viral again...he'll never be free😂😂😂
How is he poor? He probably got a fat pay check for this.

I love you folks in this thread. Laughing out LOUD and literally drooling over this comments.
Love this man!

I agree. I laughed in the original video too so hard but I'm glad he was able to redo it 💯
He wasn't having a bad day he didn't know the words.
Or the pitch. Hehe
Atleast our boy look handsome on the podium tho
Yes! Drowned out by a choir is the best place for people who can’t sing!
I can hear him more than the choir.
😅
😂🤣🤣🤣
Facts. Except for everyone else that can 🤣
When they added the choir i was like “he still can’t get it right huh?”
Why did he have to do it over I thought it sounded great the first time around.
Have you seen the original video?
Cao Duy Nguyen Absolutely, indeed what a stunning performance it was I recall.
Supernatural Light you're too nice 😂
Agreed.
I agree to
This is the greatest national anthem of all time. Without a doubt.
Russian national anthem destroys yours lol
Facts 😂
Ditto!
I admire his courage. I'm glad that he learned the words this time,lol😂....I'm happy for him and the choir😙😊

I agree. I am not sure why people are so cruel and mean to others but unfortunately, that's the type of world that we live in,smh...Be blessed😚
Mr. Harris was wonderful. The choir was just awesome. I really enjoyed the way they sang.
ladyofwisdom2, he was reading the words.
Gave him a whole entire angelic chorus to help hide his voice, God bless him
Lol this whole thing is just hilarious.
😂😂😂yes
🙌🏾👌🏾🤣💀💀💀💀💀
And the home of the free
@@rapinncapin123 😂😂
Even with a full choir, he still can’t sing. A for effort tho
I'd like to see YOU sing in front of Times Square

He sings just fine-
Why yall makin fun of him he said he not a good singer but atleast he went back out and tried yall probrably couldn't get out and sing it but I think he did a great job
you're tone deaf,,,your family and friends just haven't told you...but they're thinking it.
ceecee adams you have a point
It’s not about being a bad singer, it’s about not knowing the words, haha.
He seems like such a sweetheart 🥰
He's a good sport! ❤️
Is there a reason he needed to have the entire Mormon Tabernacle Choir backing him up?
😂😂😂😂😂
lol
Yes 😂 😂 lol
😅😅😅😅
Mormons dont have a choir at church lol Also because he cant sing and it keeps him singing the right lyrics.
They did something smart --- they didn't have him sing ALONE!!
Jesus that trophy startled me for some reason... 😅 4:36
Cody Camamo haha where did he have that
Same
Yeah it did kinda come outta nowhere, lol
Conceal level=1000
🤣😂😂 omg me too
Dang , I remember I would listen to his anthem fail over and over and over, AND OVER AGAIN and just laugh my ass off because it was so funny. I'm glad he got a DoItOver chance to resing the national anthem.
Same 😂😂
chobiv7 today was the first time I saw that video, and I was watching in class, bad idea.....I just couldn't hold my laughter😂😂😂😂
fritza jacquet I feel you brethren 😂😂
Wusso Hella Twillight !!!
BRAAAAAAVVVVE !!!
And the ho mutah freeeee !!!
Redhead Knight lolol stop lol
The brave sounded like rape
Eightan no not really
Kudos to this man for not giving up. 3/4 of the world and the people in it would have NEVER re done that MUCH LEAS DO IT OVER IN PUBLIC ANDDDD NATIONAL TELEVISION. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BROTHER!! Stay focused !
I love he got back up from falling and tried again
Only took like 14 years
this guys is a STUD. Way to go. Best Do-Over ever!
This is as funny as the original.
Right!!!
He seems like a sweet, genuine man.
What a good guy, took a lot of guts to do that and I respect him for it.
@4:11 almost Said "home" instead of "land"
So I wasn't the only one who noticed
good catch
krazykrush ik
Yep!!! lol
Bahaha
Actually super impressive that he managed this second chance in such an insanely high key! Good for him
I think he was reading the lyrics off a teleprompter, this time. LOL
He went down an octave when he hit the actual high part lol
The sad part is that this do over video will luckily get a thousand views compared to 1.3 million
I love this man with all my heart
The people in the back trying not to laugh so bad 😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It is an honor to hear anyone sing our Anthem with spirit, and he didn't have to reinvent what he is -- an incredible patriot.
I admire the fact that he had the stones to get in front of everyone to sing it. But I'm shocked that he was grown as hell but didn't know the song. We learned it in elementary school.
No one knows all the words as an adult.
4:10 he stumbles a bit, however he's a nice human being! There's always room for improvement!
Lord, he needed that choir!!!
great job dude.... nobody would try the second chance.... salute
I just want to know the cop that try not to laugh in the original video😂😂😂
I think he was fired after a crash that killed someone
“CongratulationsThankyouthankyouCONgratulationsTHankyWell done everyTHANK YOU” 😂😂😂
Great job sir. My husband Jim worked at hamilton co. Sheriff's department in Chattanooga Tn for 15 yrs. Keep learning to sing and continue to sing and be happy, God bless you thankyou for your service
He's not a professional, but he stayed on key and did better than many people. I applaud him for not giving up.
It's like his brain is slowly melting as he sings. Lmaoooo
That’s so sad
Poor man he just can't sing and some people just aren't born with a singing voice 😅,but it's so sweet they gave him a second chance💛
Sometimes I can't help but hear his original lyrics in my head which makes me chuckle anyway. AWESOME do-over though; very well sung on his part.
He said it wrong. It's actually, "and the home of the free"
Brave*
@@Superdog-kh3ee I was joking...in the original video, he says free :-)
@@GwPoKo oh ok lol sorry
The choir song over him to cover him adlibing the lyrics...
This was shameful that a police officer didn’t know the anthem. I am from another country and I know the American national anthem just from hearing it.
Bruh I'm American and even I don't care about the anthem.
He’s so cute omg🥺🧡 ps I got it to 911 likes❤️❤️
Wow... The improvement is simply incredible! Clearly that we can do anything we put our mind to!
Aww I feel bad I laughed at his original song...he was so passionate about it. I'm glad he got a second chance!
I can respect the ambition. I love this so much for some reason. The man really wanted to honor his country.
Good sport!
Nope…. I still like his original rendition. For the land of the brave and the home of the Free!
And the rabbits we watched 😂😂
Who knew, being tone deaf can't be changed.
Dude needed a flyover on the 1st one 😂
🎵🎶And the rabbits we were dreaming🎶🎵😂😭😭😭😂😭😭😭😭😭
Salute to you, sir!
Ezra Harris doing the national anthem perfectly as a do-over is like Harper Grace's American Idol audition! Pure redemption!
God bless America!
🇺🇸
Like his spirit. Good job sir and Thanks for your service!!
That choir was amazing.
They said “turn his mic down and boost the choirs” 😭
@@jaykay5086 lmaooo
So is this a Tosh.0 web redemption?
This guy is awesome. He raises my morale so he gets a pass. Roseanne Barr can go off the Hoover Dam.
Is it me or does it look like he is staring at some monitor behind the camera with lyrics to make sure he doesn't mess up again 🤣
Imagine him saying the Miranda Rights during an arrest
Now let's see him sing it Acapella and without being drowned out by the choir! Lol!
Antoine Harris isolated mic feed
I think he did great the second time
Woah he looks so much older wow. And it's been even more years. Man.
dude has a choir, composer, and a teleprompter with the lyrics
Here we see black people grouping together to help a soulless brother.
Damn, this was really just a giant roast session against his signing skills, a simple admission of the mistake would've done just fine 😂
When I first seen this years ago on worlds dumbest performers I laughed so hard my stomach was hurting so bad and I couldn’t stop
That choir was fantastic!!!!!
We loved him in 2008 and still love him in 2014!
Great job!
I think he wss looking at a teleprompter the whole time
😂 I was wondering what he was staring at
Probably didn't want to look around in case of messing up.
Elise Lacy, he was.
Why tf did you guys give him vocal lessons 😂 ya'll know that wasn't the damn problem haha
Yayyyyyy so happy for him but his 1st national anthem is LEGENDARY ON INTERNET
Really disappointed that they choir drown him out... its not "redemption" when no one can hear you.
But GOOD JOB Ezra for standing up and giving it a second try.
Yeah ikr?
Let's just be honest here. This was not simply an issue of "not being able to sing..." brotha was making up words and phrases, lol
Well, he got his Web Redemption
Dude had no malicious intent the first time. I like the first one better.
He can't sing, regardless. He should've never even attempted to sing The Star Spangled Banner in the first place!
The chorus sung everything
He aged a lot for just 8 years. First video is from 2006, this was from 2014... He was 53 so there, he was 61... He aged so much for only 8 years... Weird
Imagine if he messed it up again
I have a feeling those disgusting officers who persuaded him to sing The Star Spangled Banner did it deliberately, in hopes that he would flub-up the song-knowing all the while that he couldn't sing well.
Awry!? The man scat LOL
I'm so proud of you!
“Gave proof thru the night...that the stars were still there...”
What a choir, my goodness, outstanding! Ezra is singing with his genuine heart, which is above every human judgment.
Together we can do anything. Great reinvention.
They made sure he had help this time😂. They weren't going to let him fail👍
Dreams come true...lol
LMAO! The choir was there to drown the poor guy out!! 😆😆😆
This is a straight up glow up
All the choir did was drown him out and he received a trophy for time filled....playing with his mental psych😏imo and what was he like his son in the first clip compared to pops now? Stress from wanting his do over. God bless him.
👍much better . Great job .
Dirk is such a nice person. Most professional singers would never have done this.
I liked "for the rabbits we won" better.
And the home of the free 😂😂
Country’s superstar, Dirk Bentley. Firstly, who is Dirk 😂
Was wondering that myself.
🤣🤣🤣 I swear Black people wont let nothin slide lmao
They had the chorus sing louder than him 😂 lmfao
