    I wish you had included all of Shirley MacClaine's intro. The orchestration beneath is of the song was beautiful at the beginning.

    I was playing chess in Washington Square Park this weekend, doing what I enjoyed the most at the time. Reagan's peak popularity, perfect ceremony for him, with America recovering from all the turmoil of the 1970s.

    A song written by a man who loves his country. Motzart Bach ad Beetovnen would shut up and listen to him

    I'm not sure why he'd be embarrassed that the song would come to him quickly (6:24). I'd be elated!

    Very interesting interview from 6:17 onwards. He wrote the song very quickly, in a matter of days. The song was written only for the movie, became a single, and then a big hit. It wasn't common to be singing about America in '79, esp. after Tehran and the hostage situation, based on his response to the interviewer. It blew up in '80 and '81 and is a modern standard.

      I remember one of our news stations did a homage of the hostages coming back to America with this song as the background. Epic!!!!

      @@luztirado As someone adopted from the Philippines this song has special meaning for me. My father played it for me when I was 4 in the summer of 1988. I've always loved Neil Diamond from a young age!

    Everywhere around the world, They're coming to America, Every time that flag's unfurled, They're coming to America. Why? What is so special about this place? What makes America different? Why don't people go to China or Japan? Or Saudi Arabia or Qatar? Or Russia or Norway? All those are rich countries (or relatively rich). What is it about America? Please explain.

      Constitution is by the people, for the people, and of the people. As *imperfect* as it is, its intentions are about freedom and equality under the law.
