"how many fireworks do you wanna order?"
"yes"
Absolutely hilarious... and blankfaced
Just one more than Trump ordered 😝
I was watching live and for a split second I thought it was CGI, special effects...I don't recall such an insane fireworks display like that.
LOL, I think the nations stockpile of Fireworks could be 100% depleted right now. (Time to make more before July...no big deal)
😂
What was the perfect comment! I laughed so hard 🤣 😂
You think when Katy Perry began writing a song called firework and thought of the words “do you ever feel like a plastic bag” that she thought one day she’d sing those words at a presidential inauguration
Doubtful, but here we are.
Hahahahaha
Yes.
I know right! People laughed at her saying those lyrics make the music sound so cheap! Lol
Truth be told, most Americans did feel like a plastic bag these past 4 years so firework was directed towards so many Americans which is why it was the best performance of the day
I live in DC and I'm telling you this fireworks display was f'kn amazing...
About the most incredible thing I've ever seen ...
I bet it was... 🎉
How proud will Katy's daughter be seeing her mother singing her heart out for our country, for the rebirth of our nation, for hope to be restored for EVERY American and our allies throughout the world!
I’m guessing not that happy when Biden runs the country to the ground.
@@bennettreimer6972 sure sure
@@bennettreimer6972 :l
THE BIDENS ATE HER BABY.
Blessed be America, a nation reborn
You’re not officially the president of the United States until Katy Perry sings firework to you
😂😂😂😂😂
exactly
haha lol
@@coincollector2.041 I think it was a joke.
shut up .
These lyrics are so eerily fitting to this day.
same im just now thinking this for myself lol
@Dipesh Panta it feels creepy or off
AWESOME❤
Seriously, the inauguration planning team deserves a TON of credit. What an incredible ceremony and that finale... literally flawless. And of course, thank you Katy for such a explosive (literally) send off! ❤️👏👏
2 years later, still goosebumps. Simply lovely.
i can't believe the president and vice president crashed into katy perry's concert
I think they just wanted to see the fireworks better lol. They left bidden and his wife in the balcony seats.
Izad wasn’t it meant for them-
@@AM__-mf4md that's the joke
Bc she is the queen 👑✨
This is a golden comment right here😂😂😂
Can we talk about her vocals??? She SLAYED
When does she not?
@@darkecofreak23 sa throat lungs
Hello
Right?!? Sometimes I forget what an incredible voice she has. Silly, I know
it's given, we don't need to make it obvious lol
I don't mind admitting that I sat and cried tears of joy for our friends in the USA, and the world over when I watched this live. The day hope returned to the world.
This aged terribly
@@noneofyourbusiness1114 but at least they don't have to see Orange Man Bad's mean tweets!
Getting ready for a repeat of this in 2024
I'm scared friend... But I am praying we don't get Trump again. However, either result will tear us apart. The tipping point
Yes for Trump
@@emelinedbs1070Gross
I’m voting that this becomes the official music video for “Firework”
you mean the national anthem
@@ambienthangout i agree 100%
@@jakovbabic yes
nice one
I thought the original "Firework" music video was great, but after watching this new rendition, all the other performances look like child's play. She seriously classed this song up!
I don’t know why this performance makes me feel so emotional and hopeful.
Me too! It was the perfect way to end the day
I cried tears of joy, of course BEAUTIFUL 🤩
In my opinion this feels more like a victorious reprise. I guess that is why it feels more impactful.
Because we didn’t realize how hopeless we felt until we got a taste of it again this past week. It’s overwhelming
I know...
I keep coming back to this. It is spectacular to say the least! The arrangement of the song and Katy's vocals with the fireworks in the background and the Bidens and VP watching... I have no words, it's all so perfect and magical. What a finale!
Let’s do it all again in 2024. Pure joy 💙
But only if the democrats win
The way she performed sent chill down my spines.
Me too even teared up a bit ❤️
What a simp
POWERFUL. AWESOME❤
I thought her energy was great but I’ve never been a fan of Katy’s voice. Anyways Biden Harris 2021 yay!
It really feels like we have taken a massive step forward today.
And a big step back to segregation
@@Baileybear85 LOL how explain?
We have!! But not one liberals and Democrats will enjoy! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
STAY TUNED!!! 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️
@@Baileybear85 Trumps presidency was the most segregated the US has ever been what do you mean?
@@Eriana-ju1jq "I don't want my children to grow up in a jungle, a racial jungle."
I've watched this about 40 times now. Feels like a gift to our nation! I just love it so much. 🇺🇸💜
what?
what?
Me too and still watching @Sherry Berry
Goosebumps!!!!! I can feel the celebration, happiness, optimism and a big sigh of relief from all the decent Americans looking forward to better days coming.
Katy praticed her vocals A LOT in the last years, I'm so proud of her!
There was a little tuning unlike gaga
@@freebree7739 or maybe a lot and we just don't know. She is getting older, and you could hear some parts where it didn't quite match up. Great performance overall, there's just no way to know how much is actual singing, especially at an EXTREMELY high profile performance where messing up isn't an option.
SOUNDS AWESOME❤
This literally gave me goosebumps, Katy is honestly the best.
Seriously though those fireworks were amazing
Tears began to roll down my cheeks and goosebumps the whole way through!
Me too!
Period 👑
@Esteban A Yes, Truly a historic performance which would be remembered for generations to come.
Looking back on this 6 months afterwards, it was still beautiful and inspiring..
I'm not American buy this gives me goose bumps every time I watch it..the biggest names in the music industry turned out for president Biden that says enough of how Americans feel..
I was cheering and crying at the same time! What a way to end this historic day!
Yes! I was so excited by the end, I hit the floor. Love Won
Same!!! Same!!!! I’m so happy we can leave that terrible nightmare and start a better dream today!
Same here❤️🤲🙏
Hopefully now all Americans will realize how truly important it is to vote and to always watch for shysters.
Historic when trump got impeached twice💀
If you didn't cry or had goosebumps while watching this empowering moment that will go down in American history, are you still human?
no im 9 rats stacked in a trench coat
Kinda inhuman to have to point out someone is still human for not getting certain emotions you feel they should have
@@stardust_co lol mood
Right??? This was all so beautiful. An incredible day... I am so proud of us, America!!!

Thanks, FT W. Hopefully, when all this COVID stuff is over, you can come visit.

Same here. I am Canadian and felt every moment
You can come visit us anytime 🇺🇸❤️ We are diverse
Thank you.. America is back my friend
2 years later. Still love it.
Still brings tears to my eyes. I will always remember that night with thankfulness
Me too! May we see this again in 2025!!?
Thankfulness for wat?
@@lemonrealsqueeze6826 for getting the orange 🤡 out of office. Next! Stay focused Cletus 😜

None of us were. The whole thing went off without a hitch.
A new hope
@Thiago Alves amo demais a Katy sksksksksks
Hello
Yeah
I have never seen a presidential inauguration so over the top, SO AMAZING, so caring, so heart filing. This was SO spectacular!!!
NO WORDS!!!!
No one would want to sing at Trump's inauguration trust that
I love this song and so glad this is one she did!
💯💯💯
Thank you...same!
And Safe!!!
The look on Kamala's eyes on 3:55 is so incredibly emotional (and I’m not even american)
Im Latino but seeing this video is so powerful in so many ways that im sure my folks can relate well done America vivia estado unidos y Mexico que dios now bendiga
And meanwhile Kamala Harris laughs
The pyro-technicians deserve a TON of credit for just how spectacular that REALLY was!! And Katy too, of course!😍
That was the most spectacular fireworks show I have ever seen. It was amazing!!
When she used her falsetto at "fourth of july" that's why I fell in love with her!! Very few singers have a falsetto that's as warm and angelic as hers. And the spin she gave on the second prechorus is just perfection. VOCALS.
That’s her trade mark for singing . Teenage Dream is full of it . Love Katy!
Her vocal is IMPECABLE!
3:41 Madam VP and Second Gentleman just being the cutest couple. 😊😊
Nice pfp
@@defox5019 fan of the old Top Gear too? Welcome to the club.
@@jonnnyren6245 yup, with Jeremy, Hammond and May.
Best performance ever. She is amazing. I felt the hope in her voice and the excitement of a new presidential era.
the haters always try to take down Katy Perry but she will always shine like a firework
😐😐😐
I remember when this single was released back then, many laughed at Katy's song sound rather 'cheap' with starting lyrics including words like plastic bag.. Who would've thought it'd be the one song being the greatest ending performances for the inauguration for the US President someday. So proud of Katy! ❤️❤️
This feels like an ending for a movie, but truth is, this is only just the beginning
A beginning we shall hope for. 👉🏻👈🏻🖤
@ImAEpicCoderGaming no, now all people of color and all people of all sexualities can be free without worrying for their life ❤️ this is our fresh start
Nightmare on DC part deux.
Beginning to THE end
AMERICA HOPING FOR THE BEST IS YET TO COME
This entire inauguration was like watching the ending of a horrible disaster movie. The evil is defeated. The heroes have won. They're enjoying a brilliant performance under the stars with their loved ones. A beautiful ending and a new beginning.
You guys are evil. The real heroes will be back 2024
It did felt, still does, like that.
Enjoying those gas prices and record high inflation?
@@lukeaustin4465 You do realize the entire world is having the same problem. Do you think that's all from him 🤔. Enjoy being blind to the rest of the world.
@@lukeaustin4465 1) those 2 points were going to happen no matter WHO was president and it's around the world 2) i'm enjoying having respect again from the world, lower prescription costs, lowest unemployment, infrastructure bill passed, veteran's bill passed, social security benefits going up and on and on and on...
This song is so uplifting. Like I don’t care what situation you’re in, this song always get me!!
im not even an american, but idk why this made me emotional 🥺 so so so beautiful ✨✨
LETS GOO AMERICA WILL FINALLY BE ABLE TO HEALLLL
The DECADE starts NOW!
The past 4 years have affected the entire planet. I hope we can do some major repairs quickly.
i love you guys
Me too from The Netherlands It was Amazing.!Emotional,hope,love,faith and determanation..Congrats America
Well Done America. Much love from New Zealand. 👍🇳🇿🇺🇲
Thank you, Kiwi Nation! We’re proud, too.

The best Back Drop of End of Inauguration Day!
I come back to this at least once a month and watching Joe, Jill and then Kamala, Doug just watching how they made history…just makes me so proud to be an American and to have helped them get there.
More than a year later, I still come back to rewatch this, Lady Gaga's anthem and Amanda Gorman's poem.
The inaugural committee deserves to burst with pride for pulling this off under terrible circumstances. I spent inauguration day watching all this, and it was inspirational.
Same here. It’s so inspring and patriotic!
Gaga looks hideous. Her face is a science experiment gone bad
Choking back tears of happiness so I didn’t wake the wife, I don’t think this will ever be forgotten, by us or any dog with in 3 miles of DC.
Definitely one for the record books
Couldn’t agree more.
She was everything we were waiting for
Truth
It's been 2 months and I still tear up watching this. All the emotions of elation, joy, pride, relief still well up inside me. Just looking at the President, First Lady, Vice President and Second Gentleman makes my heart so happy!
Definitely her best performance ever in her life ever. None other compares. The ultimate. 😊
This was great I must agree!! 👏
This is the one of her greatest performance ever, because this performance was dedicated for America.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME❤❤❤
Imagine the pressure performing this live in a historic solemnly moment with an epic firework in the background that can not be replayed, a historic unique president / vice president pair under Lincoln in front of you and 259 seconds left with absolutely NO room for any kind of failure while the whole world is watching you.
I wonder if you can.
and with all of that this is literally her best firework performance to this day
And that is what makes a true talented star. Last night all performers were spectacular, but she had the hardest job of all
She performed at a Super Bowl. More people were watching that.
Great producers pulled this off. Brilliant.
She’s been doing this so long she’s got the chops! Now was Eve moment to rely on your vocal training and turn those nerves into inspiration and she did! Knocked it out of the park
3:51 this music thooo....it feels like a happy ending of a Disney movie 🥺🥺❤️❤️
Anytime I’m feeling down and out , I just watch this performance and I get this glad , warm and cheerful feeling inside !! Katy’s performance was felt as far as where I live here in the Caribbean !
I’m not from the USA but this performance makes me feel so emotional and patriotic idkw! Haha, But Congrats US you did it! A new beginning!
Because the dream of America is a multicultural, multiethnic endeavor. ✌️❤️
@@hayleyannelynch It has nothing to do with the American dream. America itself is the land of freedoms (although sometimes it is not). There are the principles of democracy that are spread all over the world today. It is a country that serves as a role model (even if it doesn't do everything right). Besides, it is the most powerful country in the world, which is why I felt it was the greatest shame that someone like Trump could hold such an important office. Biden's inauguration is a relief from all the worries and burdens the whole world had because of Trump
Yasssss
a 150 degree about change. Did you notice that the atmosphere feels quite bit at peace and calmer with Trump NOT around no more. Hope he never surfaces ever again. He doesn't realize all the drama and conflict he has imposed on the United States citizens and his staff and a police officer has lost his life and one almost got his head crushed by those animals. Following his orders to go to the Capital. What a sin he has cause. He is liable and should be held accountable for his encouragement in what led up to those events in the riot in the Capital. Had he NOT requested those criminals and others to go, it would of never happened. I t was believed and seen by a police officer that was involved in it said he seen it on line he read it by Trump where to go and what day to do it. He says that is how he found out about it. So he traveled to go just like he said on the advice of Trumps social media account. As we all seen Trump and his close circle adult kids were standing and laughing and cheering on the mob as they watched it on television.
We in the U.S.A. will be happy to consider you to be American for as long as you'd like.
I've heard this song so many times but...her singing it like that where shes at for some reason had me crying. I hope Biden makes this country better for everyone 🤗
He ain’t gonna you can forget that hope missy . I wished the same thing but trump 2021
@@officially_kayley7343 Gee thx for putting a kid's hopes down I really appreciate it 😂😂😂😔
@@officially_kayley7343 pls stop 🤦
There’s no chance that Biden will make anything better. It’s gonna get far worse and then people will realize why trump would’ve been better

I keep coming back to watch this. It fills me with such hope.
Me too!! I still cry tears of joy when I think of how that election turned everything around for the country. And the emotions and hope I felt watching this on Inauguration Day still grip me when I see this.
Trump is coming back in just a few months 😊

I hated that song when it first came out, now I love it🌺🌻⚘
And for HRC at the 2016 DNC when she accepted the nomination
This feels like a Disney Happy Ending :')
Equally unrealistic
0:49 That note when she sings “Just own the *_Night_* ”😩😩😩
I bet Katy Perry wouldn't have done this if Trump was president again.
Ofc. No person with a brain would sing for him. ❤️
as she shouldn’t
They don't have choice
sstiiluss they definitely do
@@sstiiluss they do have a choice
You can just see the feeling of wonder, appreciation, and respect for this moment from all of them. It’s not about ego but doing what’s right for the American people. I’m truly reminded of America’s REAL greatness for the first time in 4 years. My best wishes to you!
Me too
I live in Maryland like 15 minutes away from the White House and I kid you not I felt my windows vibrate from the fireworks exploding as I watched them live on my phone lol I’ve never seen something to spectacular!
I live on the Virginia side, same thing, it was crazy
Let's do this again.
With Trump's inauguration day in 25'
I remember the day felt beautiful i just remember it i love it i feel nostalgic
The amount of Nostalgia this song holds is enough to make a grown man cry
IT IS A POWERFUL. MESSAGE❤
I know, it’s so nostalgia
I did cry - hope is back
@@Scott-pe6te 😥😭
And that's alright
We haven't seen a president hug his wife in public since the Obama era! Thanks Joe!
So true, in a loving way 🥺
Biden has hugged many of women... Not all his wife and not all of age!
Well, to be honest, I hardly considered the former creatures to be a married couple.
Melania to Donald: Don't get too close.
Jesus that never occurred to me, but you're absolutely right.
almost two months later and 80% of my family has been vaccinated. thanks to the Biden administration. dreams do come true.
Lol Trump said Biden would try to take credit for his vaccination.
You've been duped mate.
@@whitewolf55673 Biden does not take credit for the MAKING of the vaccine. He does rightfully take credit for a very successful rollout which would have been a 100% flop if tRump was incharge
She changed and got better in these 10 years so much we always love her as a Pakistani 🇵🇰🤍🇺🇸

@@alainakelly7360 you may want to consider some counseling
This just further cements this day in the history books. This inauguration was the happiest I’ve seen America in a long time. Truly a spectacle to behold. I wish all the best to President Biden and Vice President Harris.
Yeah cuz when Democrats are happy everyone is happy right?? Remember only a little bit over 50% of America voted for Joe.
@@bigboi2209 Remember Biden is entering office with an approval rating of 65%, higher than Trump has ever had in his 4 years in office.

Bidens not one of them
Cap 🧢
How about now?? 😂
This is one of the most beautiful moments to ever happen in America! Cannot stop watching.
Was katy actually performing in front of the White House or was this video recorded some where else with a green screen ?
It’s fake!
no it wasn’t
Not an American, but this made me emotional. Im very happy and hopeful for your country
Thank you

one of the best live performances by katy perry spectacularly done wow
Can we talk about how “...After a hurricane comes a rainbow” matches perfectly with this situation?
Yes we can
Do let’s.
yep, definitely intentional. Most up lifting song too

2:04 I felt that note ❤🎉
The statue of Lincoln in the background behind Kamala Harris following that was great work by whoever was directing this.
No question, this is the best version of the song by a landslide

This video makes me tear up as I remember watching this on Jan 21st night in my 92 year old home health client's room which was the very last night of me with him as he passed a week later from having tested covid positive the day after inauguration. Will fondly remember my 92 year old client who like my grandfather and a gem and will remember this proud inaugural moment of President Biden getting inaugurated.
They really said, "we can't throw a ball, so I guess we're gonna have a concert instead!"
Not mad about it!!
not complaining tho
Thats probably the most spectacular firework show I've ever seen
Best fireworks show of all time.
Other than mr.beast
is it better than disney world thats a joke lol
@@SimbaC2007 I think so

This is the ending credits scene after America beats the final boss
I was looking for this comment!! Lol

👏👏
SO happy you said this, was looking for a game reference xD
Whoever produced this entire day deserves a medal. It could have fallen into deep kitsch, or it could have melted away the cold cynicism that gripped our hearts for more than 4 long years. It was perfection.
A daytime and prime time Emmy
Absolute perfection, agreed....🤗🤗🤗
Beautifully put. Thank you.
The best INAUGURATION in the world
Can we appreciate that stunnin performance from her? Only few times I have witnessed live versions being actually better than the recording. Such a singer, and such a atmosphere!
one of the best performers and songwriters of her time. she doesn’t get the credit she deserves for her talent and for everything she did fighting for democracy since 2008. absolute QUEEN!
Queen of pop
i swear why is this so majestic-
There's just something about bright lights in the night...
The magic of fireworks combined with Katy Perry’s stunning vocals and the belief that our new president and vice president will bring us forward to greater heights.
Because we almost lost our Republic to a maniacal maniac!
I cried just watching these fireworks with Katy Perry singing her one of her famous songs. The ending of an era and a beginning of a new one!
Her performance of firework in this vide is very beautiful. I loved this slower version of the song. It was spectacular. She killed it.
