      Also, please demonstrate some intelligent, specific examples of what you consider to be right wing political views, and some substantive examples of how they are hurting this country? The source of the VAAAST majority of all right wing political views the public hears about are fantasies derived from the left.
      My claim was absolutely factual in basis, and provably so, and had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with politics. Liberals/leftists ABSOLUTELY and continuously do indeed try to drive a wedge between all different demographics of society. They ABSOLUTELY try to keep each of these groups hyper inflamed, divided, and pitted against each other solely for political gain. Not one of their self described apocalyptic issues they try to blame on other groups of people are true even in any remotely significant way, and this can EASILY be self proven by ANY individual who actually takes the time to travel throughout the cities, towns, and states of this nation, and look around and mingle with the citizens. You simply WILL NOT find any of the things they describe (Obviously not saying there's NEVER any ultra rare exceptions to the rule).
      Yes, of course a certain amount of conflict will naturally exist amongst human beings, that's part of nature and unavoidable. Liberals/leftists however, INTENTIONALLY try to create conflict between people for political gain. That is not a political statement, it is an indisputable FACT, and they do it on a daily basis. This can be seen clearly by any mature, sane adult who takes an objective moment to observe what's taking place around them by, not necessarily your average liberal/leftist layman, but ABSOLUTELY by the liberals/leftists in power. Your response to me obviously proves that you have been successfully manipulated by the latter.

    Help with the Artists, in order. First up is Lionel Richie, joined by Stevie Wonder. Next is Paul Simon (besides solo, was in a group Simon and Garfunkle). Kenny Rogers (White guy) is next, with James Ingram (black guy), then Tina Turner and Billy Joel, then the chorus with Michael Jackson and Diana Ross (The legend). Dionne Warwick, who I could tell you really liked her voice, and then you gave Willie Nelson the whole screen, lol. Willie (and Kenny Rogers) is legendary Country Singers, and Willie is also one of the few people that's known for Outsmoking Snoop Dogg.
    Moving on, Al Jarreau, one of the smoothest voices ever, and a raspy Bruce Springsteen, followed by a smooth Kenny Loggins (Footloose), and legenday Steve Parry (lead singer to Journey). Daryl Hall is next, who still has it. Check out some recent stuff "Daryl's House" on youtube. I think you've reacted to Daryl Hall and John Oates before (John Oates was there too, but only as backup).
    Micheal Jackson again (and the back up singers dressed similar to him, that is his family, Randy, Latoya, etc... The Jacksons), then Huey Lewis. The wonderful Cyndi Lauper getting emotional, and then Kim Carnes (Betty Davis Eyes), and the buckwheat sounded guy is Folk Legend Bob Dylan, followed by the legendary Ray Charles.
    Stevie Wonder and Bruce Springsteen was spotlighted, and later James Ingram (You went "Ooo!") and Ray Charles.

    You have Bob Dylan, Michael Jackson, Steve Perry, Cindy Lauper, Bruce Springsteen, Ray Charles, Diana Ross, Tina Turner, and more, and you feel they are squeezin' their souls on every word and every verse...
    It doesnt matter if you've listened a hundreds of times...always shakes to your very soul, what amazing combo of some of the greatest voices ever and these emotional melodies.

    I fell into this rabbit hole of watching reactions to this song today, and this is the first time watching you react to something. A few of the reactions I watch were titled "I got so emotional, blah blah blah", but YOU really showed that you felt the song. You could see it in your eyes or your expression when something hit you. The person that I watched that said they got so emotional, their face never changed through the entire song. Your face hid nothing, and showed your emotions. Fantastic job Empress!

      I have to agree totally!! I love seeing a reaction & especially without stopping and remarking what the reactor is feeling!!! I could tell this song really affected you, just as it always has affected me!! I feel so much pride for the purpose of this great endeavor & how much money was raised. May everyone that was associated with this be blessed beyond measure! May the USA continue to have the spirit of those who stepped up and sang for this project & May those who have already gone home Rest in peace in paradise.

    1985..., a music obsessed 12yo "self" sits in front of the TV watching the Top 20, like every single Saturday evening (like a church) at my grandma's.... THIS comes on the Top 20 for the first time.... and it's like 85% of my 80's musical heroes (from the American side anyway) are all together in one single room, singing this beautiful song together..., with that spirit..., for that cause..... well...,you can imagine how much this one means to me... 😉
    Since then i've probably heard this and watched the video billions of times by now, and it still chokes me up every single time... 😉
    And the saddest part of it all is i know something like this will never happen again.... 😥
