![[Reaction] Home Free - God Bless The USA, Feat Lee Greenwood & US Air Force Band](/img/tr.png)
Contrary to what you see on tv there are millions of Americans who love our country and this song brings tears to our eyes every time we hear it! You are right, Tennessee is a great place! I used to live there but I’ve lived in Texas for the last 29 years and I must say God Bless Texas!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I live in Tennessee and lived in Texas at one time.
There is no music background. The drums and flyover are Adam Rupp of Home Free.
I was born & raised in Oregon which at one time was a beautiful place to live! When people moved in from California & the East Coast they destroyed it with their ideology! We got out of there almost 3 yrs ago & moved to Texas!! I too say God Bless Texas!! Be aware though, the evil of the Left is trying to infiltrate this state!! Let me also acknowledge the governors & patriots of the Great States of Florida & South Dakota & Arizona for the audit!!!
@zedzed headhead I took it to mean that what you see on most media makes it seem as if a lot of people don't love our country. Let's face it, people getting along and loving each other doesn't sell commercial time.
@@olgamiller216 Hell yeah brother!! I'm still in California unfortunately But I will say!!! I am part of archery and there isn't a single archer I have come across who doesn't fly their flag high and preach about how Great the US of A is!!! We are still here in California!! Those bastards still haven't consumed all of us, we are bigger than anyone thinks... but unfortunately not big enough. I want to move to Arizona where everyone flies a flag and loves there country!!!! God Bless the USA!!!!
We have five generations of US Marines. This country is going through a rough patch right now. This song represents the majority of America. We will come out of this maelstrom stronger than ever. A sleeping lion is waking up.
Thank you for your kind words regarding my country. I have been to Scotland and read the history. Scotland is beautiful and the people were very welcoming and great fun as well.
😁. Thanks Judith. Scottish people love a party and a drink. I'm sure you had a good time
@zedzed headhead I can only suppose you haven’t read history, nor understand what I meant. Frankly, I do not care. You are not only ignorant but crass and rude.
@@TheDonsChannel We did indeed, drinking and golfing with the Scots was a ball, one guy even brought a bagpipe. Loved it there, felt at home and very welcome.
@zedzed headhead Astounding that you believe a man, with obvious dementia, got more votes than Obama? Are you delirious. Here is a clue that there are more common sense people of both Parties, that are disgusted by the lies. CNN and main stream media are tanking dramatically. Hollywood is losing money. I am an Independent and voted for Obama the first time. There are more examples, but since you appear to have a case of cognitive dissonance, enough said. Our chats are over. Fini, done.
@zedzed headhead the election audit in arizona being carried out now is showing major issues like many americans have been saying happened in the 2020 election. Duplicate ballots with no corresponding original, 10-20% of ballots missing from batches counted, aka 200 was counted in the election but the batch has only 160; also the maricopa county refuse to give access to routers which would show the dominon voting machines were connected to the internet. Once they get them and they show they were connected, then anyone around the world can hack in and change votes no problem, 0 security. The 2020 election was a massive fraud, I would be surprised if Biden got any more than 30 million real votes. All the evidence is being covered up by the mainstream media and big tech as much as they possibly can, they are complicit in overthrowing Trump, the real president.
Lee Greenwood is 78 when he did this song with Home Free! Man he still got it. He stated that due to the backup and support Home Free and the Air Force band, he felt free to be able to do adlibs and runs in the song. He killed it!
Lee did kill it. I have never heard him better.
He did. It was amazing to hear him try something new and it worked out REALLY well.
Mr. Greenwood, as he deserves to be called was able to completely redue this song thanks the help of Homefree and Airforce band . What a great job he and everyone did . So proud of all of them and so proud to be an AMERICAN.
@@darrylmoreland1263 Totally. I can listen to it any day any time.
I heard that the military singers are called The Singing Soldiers.
Thank you so much for not interrupting the song.
Please don’t believe what you see on TV or any other social media. Millions of us still believe in that song. We feel the same way. That song shows the real spirit of the USA. We are strong and will win. Good over evil. Good will win!
The national anthem makes me cry like a baby but this song is unbelievable and I cannot get through it without bawling my head off
Ssaaaame. Me too. Every time I hear two thing, proud American songs and christian songs by either secular singers or on secular stations will both make me bawl like a baby. But yeah this song gets me so so so much. The original does too, but this version is even more special I think.
It is a very powerful song, no doubt !!!
Oh me too!! I love this country so much!
Me too! Both are very powerful songs and I'm very proud to be an American.
Same here.
I gave 22 years for the U.S. but i will always give my life for her
I took a blood oath to my country in 1976. I will give my life for it any day.
I did 10 yrs as an Army Infantryman. - wanted to do 20, but was to broken after my 4th deployment to stay in. I would still take up my rifle to defend the Constitution.
@Edward Friedel @Roxanne Kean @Get over It Thank you all for your service....more correctly...CONTINUED SERVICE!!!! My Daddy is a USMC Sargent who was promoted to Heavenly Duty, 11/27/2018. Once a SOLDIER ALWAYS A SOLDIER. He taught us that the oath is a LIFETIME commitment. God bless you ALL!!!! Mimi ❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️
Thank you sir for your service!
More tears! They played Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA a lot after 9/11. This version is absolutely mind blowing. Thank you.
Yeah he sang it live at the first game of the World Series at Yankees stadium in NY after 9/11 it was an amazing performance!!!
Brings tears every time. Especially now since this country is on a deep decline . God help us. BTW love your accent and love Scotland!
We lost so many people that day :(
After 9/11 is when I first heard the song and it made me cry then and still does today. But you have to understand what it represents for it to affect you. So many are lost to the true meaning of USA and you can not explain it to them, they are unreachable. I do not even try -- it is a waste of time and energy. This song will go down in annals of all the patriotic songs of the USA -- and there are a lot of them if you include all the patriot songs of Texas.
Home Free is an A Capella group. No instruments were used in this song. Their beat boxer, Adam Rupp is the best!! Tim Foust was the bass singer. The other group members are Rob Lundquist, Adam Chance and Austin Brown. I hope you'll check out some of their songs. This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it and in the U. S. it is played at a lot of rodeos, along with our National Anthem. Thanks for the reaction.
On Memorial Day & 4th of July too!
The Home Free groups origin is Minnesota, Rob Lundquist, who sang the part about the state is the from there along with the incredible beatboxer, Adam Rupp. Tim Foust, the Bass sang the Texas part, he's from Texas and has a 5 octave range. Austin Brown is their high Tenor, he's from Georgia. Adam Chance is their baritone, he's from Alabama. They have incredible fans and are very supportive of human rights for everyone. They have lost some fans because of it, but I'm grateful to be a Home Fryas they have kept me happy throughout the last year.
@@marysartor4278 sad to think people would stop supporting this group because they support human rights for everyone. Our rights are granted by God and our military defends those rights at all costs for all our citizens. We may not all agree to how things should be, but we have to stand up to protect these rights for all our citizens.
Tim Foust is one of the lowest, deepest bass singers. There are Home Free videos of the bass competitions. I have watch most of them. So amazing!
Everything that features Home Free is a winner!
As an American, let me just say thank you, for your reaction. You were great!
Thank you. It's my pleasure
I LOVEEEEE my country!!!!! GOD BLESS the USA!!!!!!!!!!!
I know the world sees people kneeling when are anthem is played but the reality is millions of people love our country, and we outnumber those that do not we are just not on tv.
It's true, it's just Hollywood, our politicians, and the Media have betrayed us, but American's as a whole, the majority of the people still love and appreciate this country for what it is and know just how lucky we are to live here, and have the rights we do. No matter how much the Media wants the world to believe otherwise.
Of course we aren't. God forbid that the mainstream media would report the actual truth. Not the biased, bull crap narrative they have been trying to shove down the American people's throat for the past 3 years.
Amen!
Those people are NOT Americans. They are traitors to the life and liberty of our great country. Now with such a weak, ineffectual joke of a presidential administration in office, the traitorous actions are only increasing.
@@ADamselInDesign Some people put God first, yet they still love their county and kneel because of injustice that others, those not affected by the injustice, ignore. Not one place in the bible would it indicate that kneeling is a bad thing.....which means it's only the opinion of those that don't put God first due to their sin of pride.
If you watch the news regularly, it would be easy to think that the USA has gone to hell in a handbasket. The truth is this country is filled with those of us who know our history, the good and bad, and would defend it in a heartbeat. God Bless our military and their families for the sacrifices they have made to keep us free. This is a lovely version of the song, however the original Lee Greenwood version brings tears to my eyes.
Too true
There are 3 songs that just rip my heart out with Partiotism. America the Beautiful, The Star Spnagled Banner, and God Bless the USA. I am a veteran so these songs touch me something fierce. I LOVE MY COUNTRY!!!!!
❤🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I agree, but I’d also add “this land is your land”
Thank you for your service! ❤
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your sacrifice and service for our country
I would add God Bless America by Irving Berlin
Wow, this makes me cry. I truly love the USA 🇺🇸 & Always will. God Bless Our Great Country ❤🇺🇲❤
So proud of my country and those who have served and serve our country currently! Any American who is not proud to be an American, please find a different residency. As blunt as that may be, so many have paid the ultimate price for this country and for our freedom. This song is and has been truly one of my favorites since I was a kid. Thank you sharing.
I'm an independent in California and this song always makes me cry. Even though we all fight there is a deep sense of patriotism in every American and it always comes out.
God Bless America and all who fought for her in the past and fight for her today ! I am proud to be an American ! God save us from political division.
My high school marching band worked this into our show and received standing ovations each performance. This song still gives me the chills. I love seeing your reaction for the first time.
Thank you very much
My husband was a veteran of the US Army and an officer in the Association of the United States Army. He was responsible for organizing the inauguration ceremony one year in the mid-1980s. We had two survivors of the Bataan Death March speak, and we played this song. It always makes me cry.
I'm American and I appreciate you and want to thank you for your service in defending freedom and fighting evil in this world..
All the percussion you hear, and the "flyover" at the end are courtesy of Adam Rupp, beatboxer of Home Free
I'm proud to be an American
Adam Rupp blows my mind....absolutely WOW!!! I’m so grateful to be a child of God & an American!! Blessings fellow Patriot!!
I retired from the US NAVY after 25 years, I love this version of Lee Greenwoods song, the original version came out after the first gulf War in 91,to this day it still sends chills thru my body! God bless America and the Scott's, which I have some heritage from😊
This song was a big hit for Lee Greenwood years ago, back in the 80's. Lee is a country music legend. After 9-11, it regained popularity again. Then the acapella group Home Free teamed up for this version.
Lee Greenwood is the brother of Kenny Rogers
Saw Lee sing this live in 1989 at the Atlanta Underground..by chance..so glad I was there
@@Nightingale1860 where'd you get that from???
@@cindy844 I remember hearing it when he first became popular. (Yes I'm old)
@@Nightingale1860 sorry, but it's incorrect.
I remember him coming to Austin on Memorial Day many years ago and it just makes you cry and so proud and feel so lucky to be an American. Very lucky thanks to our Men and Women of the UNITED STATES MILITARY that protect us.
Thank you for loving our country along with us. My dad was killed in WW 2, and I am so touched always by these patriotic songs. I hope one day you will come and let us love on you the way you have on our country. God bless you brother Don. I love your accent ,btw.
Thank you very much
The harmonies with the band Home Free made this more special than it already was.
Look dude, this song makes me tear up every time. My generation was brought up with grandparents that fought in WWII and parents and Uncles that served in Korea and Vietnam, and we willingly enlisted for Desert Storm and Reenlisted for The War on Terror... It's so sad to see our modern kids having no pride and sense of respect for the cost of their own freedom! #Hooah!
Yeah as someone who just graduated and loves this country and is currently joining the military my generation makes me so so sad.
They play it on the radio all the time on the 4th of July. Love it.
You got that right! Even Grandpa was in WW 1, but fought for Germany, after the war grams and gramps immigrated to the USA, and became citizens! My other grandparents immigrated from England, became citizens too! ❤ 😊

I love your genuine reactions!! Thank you so much!! I love the USA!! From Tulsa, Oklahoma USA!!!
My Scottish brother, the original release of this song by Lee Greenwood has always been a favorite of mine and I have wanted to learn it to sing it myself at our Independence Day Celebrations. This version, as you have said, is so well done and while still featuring Lee Greenwood as the main vocalist, is enhanced by the a cappella group, Home Free, and members of the U.S. armed forces. As an American, with predominantly English and French ancestry, I am a descendant from a great American family that produced notable patriots such as Samuel Adams and two U.S. Presidents, John Adams and his son, John Quincey Adams. I live in Alaska, and having served in the armed forces myself, have always had a great sense of patriotism and seek to preserve those freedoms that my ancestors fought to establish.
Thank you for your service! When I read you are English and French...I expected the next line to say you were from Louisiana (as I am) 🤣😂 I'm from a long line of military also, a Navy Brat. 🇺🇲
I have commented on your blog before and I still believe that you are a true American. I am proud to call you brother. Keep fighting with the Patriots of this beloved
I won the lottery in all of human history to be born American!!! God keep our Constitution. Thank you for your lovely review. You get it!
Great reaction! I'm retired U.S. Air Force, and the military singers were all from the Air Force, along with Lee and HF. Makes me very proud of the AF AND the country to hear this! Lot's of patriotism associate with this song. When I was still in, and stationed in the P.I., years ago, Lee came there and sang this song. TONS of screaming and yelling (in a good way!).
I get chills every time I hear this song. Tim Foust was the bass singing about Texas (his home state). His group, Home Free, which was also throughout the entire song, is a capella. No instruments. Love them to bits. Lee Greenwood has been rocking this song for decades and I don't think he's ever sounded better.
I read through all the comments looking for references to Home Free......Thankfully you chimed in.....Now if everyone listened to it again, keeping in mind the acapella aspect, they'd be knocked senseless about the percussionist, Adam Rupp.
Too bad Trump soiled it by using it as his theme song!
@@mshappyapple8663 Too bad a liberal had to cast a shadow on a great song....But, kind of expected.
When my Nephew-in-Law, who was from Argentina, was sworn in as a citizen of the US, on other 2 hour drive home, I'm quite sure Alfredo played this song at least 10 times. His pride in becoming an American citizen, and our pride in him had us crying and laughing every time he played.
This was done last year start of Covid. Lee Greenwood...army singers and country group Home free! It’s a great way to share a message!
Lee Greenwood, Home Free, and the United States Air Force Singing Sergeants..... beautiful combination of voices! Loved it!!!
That was sooo awesome! Lee Greenwood still has the pipes!! Beautiful arrangement! Great reaction! I love Home Free😊
And we, I’ll speak on behalf of my fellow Americans, love you!
Thank you very much
The singers who weren't in camo are members of the group Home Free, an absolutely wonderful a capella group. The bass that you enjoyed so much is a member of that group. My husband had the great honor of attending a private concert given by Lee at a political fundraiser. Hubby had a front row seat beside Mrs. Greenwood during the concert. There are a lot of us who feel that THIS song should be our national anthem.
Lee Greenwood first wrote this as a patriotic song and released in the 1980's. First played and heard at the RNC (Republican National Convention) for President Ronald Reagan. ..It wasn't a huge hit but released again during the Gulf war as way to help boost morale for our armed forces so far away from home.
To let them know we back in the states support them....and then after 9/11 it truly hit a signature song and dies to this day. We love our country, we know what our troops are going through, we know what they and those before them are sacrifices for...regardless of what some are trying to push right now, there are millions of Americans standing strong and love our country. Unfortunately there are those who don't understand what they have...God Bless the U.S.A. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽
Your reaction to this video brought me to tears!! Our country is going through a bit of hell right now, but I hope one day we can come together and be as patriotic as we used to be. ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG and LOVE your excitement. God bless you, and God bless the USA!! 🇺🇸
Detroit checking in here! Crying like a baby! 🥲🤣😂
No matter how many times I hear this song I cry every. Single. Time!
Always loved this song. The first words out of my husband's mouth after he swore his oath of allegiance and became a citizen were this song. He had ready been serving this nation four years before he became a citizen of it.
My son, too. He heard it for the time after boot camp. Not a dry eye in the group. GOD BLESS THE USA
Please come to America!!! I assure you there are more people for our country than against it God Bless You for standing with us
The guys singing without uniforms, is an acapella group called Home Free. This song is so beautiful, you don't realize there is no musical instruments being used. They make the music with their voices. It's magnificent.
Ever since Lee Greenwood came out with this song forever ago it has been one of my favorite patriotic songs! And ever since the first song I heard from Home Free I have loved that group. This has become my favorite version of God Bless the USA especially since some of our military joined in. Thank you for your views. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Everytime I here this song I cry, not with sadness, but with pride for my Country and the gratefulness for my freedom and to those who gave their lives and serve everyday to protect us. This version had every bit of my skin vibrating with patriotism, pride and love. May God always bless the USA ❤️ 🇺🇸 🙏
Lee Greenwood (first singer) sounded great for 75! He wrote and sang the song originally. Home Free is an “a cappella” group (in plain clothes) that backed him up. Their bass, Tim Foust, is amazing. And their beatboxer (no instruments) did the drum sounds and a jet flyover sound at the end! The Air Force Singing Sergeants were great. All had great voices. It’s a great rendition. Great reaction Don!
Thank you very much
Yes, we are mostly United in the states,however, right now we have a government that wants to break that unity! GOD bless the U.S.A.!
Was born in Scotland. My family moved to the U.S. when I was 9.I did 2 tours in Afghanistan and 1 in Iraq. I love my adopted Country. Awesome reaction.
Thank you very much
I love this song, but this version never fails to bring full body goosebumps.
I cry every time! We DO LOVE OUR COUNTRY!!!
5 of the guys in this video is a group called Home Free. They are a cappella group.
GLORIOUS MUSIC. Home Free are my favorite arcapella group. Love from NSW AUSTRAILIA
You can’t see Independence Day fireworks without hearing this song. One of my favorites.
The most moving rendition of this song ever! To see Lee Greenwood included is priceless!! Thank you!
I am proud to be American for sure. And I’m glad we have such wonderful allies such as the UK.
A true testament to the love we have for our country. WE ARE PROUD AMERICANS!
I believe in this truth from the bottom of my soul..and I will gladly stand up today to secure her for my children's children's child!
Be💗Utiful!!!!!
God Bless the USA and all
People around the World!
Positivity can spread like Wildfire! Our Unified Strength can be Insurmountable🤩
Thank you for sharing!
Best Wishes!🙏
California USA
Thank you, sir! I was hoping you would really like it. Thank you for cheering us on, as well. It means a lot right now.
It's my pleasure
This is my favorite version of this song and the addition of our troops in this video makes it extra special. GOD BLESS THE U.S.A.!!!!! 🇺🇸👍👍
I love our country and this song. Thank you for playing it. God bless you and God Bless Our Great Country. All the patriots are standing strong and we will come out of the hard time we are going through right now even stronger and even more united! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
We need to jail the communist socialist democrats and Biden & Harris are two of the 3 headed anti-Christ
@@MissMAGAPATRIOTof2024 This administration is trying to kill our great country and turn it into a communist country. I want our real POTUS in the oval office that was stolen from him. President Donald John Trump! MAGA AGAIN!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for appreciating that very special song of ours. You make me smile.
My pleasure Bev. Thank you very much
Lee still sings so well for being 77. Love this song
Everytime I hear that song. I cry and pray for the USA. My home my country.
The man with the deep voice is a member of Home Free (Tim Foust) you should aknowledge Home Free in the title and in the video actually. I believe they instigated making this song with Lee Greenwood and the USABand. They are a great a capella band.
Ok Thank you
Where can I buy this? Couldn’t find it on itunes.
@@aletmartins6940 it's on Spotify I believe. You should look for Home Free featuring Lee Greenwood (& USAFband)
That was the US Air Force Band 😁 the best version of this song so far!
I'm a retired Navy Wife. My Husband served 26yrs in the Navy and Everytime he was deployed I couldn't listen to this song. I would cry all the way thru it.
Don't forget Texas!! I'm also a musician so I get the feelings!
We love our country. I want to see America again.
The man with the deep voice is Tim Foust of Home Free, and let me tell you, that was nothing compared to what he can do! Lee Greenwood is the creator of this song, and Home Free imitated the cover of this video. Please seek out more of their videos, they are amazing. The song was completely accapella, any "instruments" were the beatboxer, Adam Rupp, and the flyover at the end was his voice as well.
Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you! I so wanted to see you watch this!!
Loved this, Shout out to All Vetrens and military. God bless this country I love so much.
Those of us that are proud Americans will, in fact, fight for our freedoms. You will see more and more protect those freedoms as our patriotism is being challenged. Thank you for your reaction to this song!
This song gives me chills and makes me cry. I truly am proud to be an American.
One of the BEST songs EVER! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Love it! ❤🙏🏼🇺🇸
By FAR, my favorite version of this song that I love so much. I love your love of America. I love our country so much and pray that we return to the roots of our founding and the spirit that created our country. May we return to the Lord so that our nation can be blessed. Thank you for your channel and your support. May we ever be worthy of that. Lord bless the great military men and women who serve to protect their nations and their people. No greater love than someone who is willing to lay their life down to protect another life. God bless you!
we need to get the communist socialist democrats and jail them all, and then restore our Gods Chosen one to power !!! Trump 4 ever
I love Scotland. Been learning about it and it’s history (mainly Jacobite) through that tv show outlander. They filmed it in Scotland and it is gorgeous there. I’d love to visit
God Bless the USA indeed. This is truly a beautiful soulful song. It invokes a deep emotional reaction. The USA is an amazing place...sadly currently we are having a bit of a crisis and it's from within.
Really, all countries can stand with this song, happy to share. We are the people of the world, stand together.
Home Free and Lee Greenwood are 2 of my favs!
As divided as we may seem to be - we fight amoungst ourselves - but you come from outside and dare to hurt one of my fellow Americand and God forbid you kill one, then I feel sorry for you....we are very patriotic....on the right or left. We are proud and love our country.

@@CaptainFrost32 exactly
Exactly! It's just like when you fight your own siblings, but the minute someone else tries to mess with that sibling, they have the whole damn family after them. We may fight amongst ourselves, but we also defend and protect each other from outsiders. We are Americans first and anything else is secondary. At the moment , I think the little brother that's being picked on is Ukraine and although they aren't American I think a lot of us especially our veterans that went to help them fight over there, have kinda adopted them and I'm ok with that. 🇺🇲
Thank you for your beautiful comments on our American patriotic song. God Bless You.
Home Free is an amazing a capella group! Their rendition of How Great Thou Art is beautiful!
I live in small town USA and if this song plays on a radio in a eating place or dancing place, you would be amazed to see all the people there, sing along. America is more than portrayed on tv.
This gives me all the feelings every time I hear it! So glad you enjoyed it!
I still cry when I hear this song. Beautiful!
I believe that Home Free an acapella group initiated the production of this video
That is Lee Greenwood in the video, supported by Home Free and the Air Force Choir.
@@mrs.martin3158 Yes it is, I believe this collaboration was initiated by Home free
@@guyironstone7125 I truly can never get enough Home Free!
The group is Home Free. They collaborated with Lee to put this on their patriotic album, Land of the free.
My favorite rendition. Home Free is so humble. Lee Greenwood is great. Love how our service people were in this.
The “deep voice guy” is Tim Foust with Home Free. I have seen them in concert, and when he hits a really low note, you will feel it in your bottom! Check them out! Oh, they are an acappella band, voices only, no instruments.
I saw Lee Greenwood perform this live on base in the 80's...it made me cry then,and still does.Home Free only makes this song better!!they are amazing,Lee is Amazing,and our US military are amazing.I grew up a Army brat...and I want to thank you for reviewing this song and for your kind words.America is going through a troublesome time right now,but I think most would agree that we love our country and will get through this together. This song helps bring people together,and that's what we need right now more than ever.😊
I love this song. It never gets old. Always makes me emotional. I live in Minnesota and love the lakes of Minnesota part. I love my country and support all Military who protect it. My Dad was a Viet Nam Vet. He's still alive and he is my hero. Thank you to all past present and future who protect the great USA. Thank you!🇺🇸 🦅
Glad your father is still here. I'm a Vietnam vet, too. Getting old, but this song brings tears to my eyes for all the boys (and they were) who died.
@Robyn, tell your dad, welcome home for me. @@michaelkearney3646Welcome home. Much love from, Texas ❤
Still gives me chills and brings pride to my soul.
this cover was made on the urging of Homefree to celebrate the 20th universe of Lee's original release and to celebrate the 4th of July (american independence day from Britain and national holiday of parasitism). they asked lee and he was honored, it was the Base Tim who said they should get the USAF band on. you should continue to react to all groups involved.
Speaking of Independence Day, I cringed when prince Harry decided to criticize our constitution and call our first amendment bonkers. Excuse me.
The song was originally released in 1984. At this point, it might be the 20th anniversary of his response to 9/11, but not his first release. Tim sings Bass, not Base.
This song has always moved me to tears since it first came out.
This song sends chills through my whole body. It feels like my skin is crawling. It makes me so proud to be an American from Western Kentucky!
One of the most famous sogs that will give you chills, is Kate Smith singing God Bless America. I conic is all I can say.
It is a great song and the way they did this version is just amazing!!!!
Thank you for sharing this 💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
My pleasure
As an American of Scots descent, I greatly appreciate this video. Great song and rendition.
Many Scottish people also had contributions to the independence of the United States.
For example: James Wilson, a founding father and an immigrant from Scotland to the American Colonies.
My 5th great grandfather came here from Scotland and fought in the Revolutionary War. Ever since Lee performed this for our troops in the Gulf War, I don't think I've been able to get thru it without tearing up.
