I will never forget that day. Sat with my dad all morning watching it. I still remember even how I felt all day and for weeks after. This song hits it just right on how I felt that day.
This is his tribute to the survivors of the 9/11 attack on the twin towers in New York in 2001. There are a two other videos of him doing this song; one is just a few days after and he does it live, and another version that has actual video and photos of the horrible attack and aftermath.
I remember this moment when they showed it on tv , early evening here in Germany , I was up to leave the house for my Spanish course . My teenager son shouted to me when he was watching tv . First I thought : that can’t be real !! Its from a movie ?!
My daughter is your age. I had just dropped her off at school and stopped by the public library before going home. I missed the beginning of it. I heard somebody say, "I think one is headed for the Pentagon" as I left, but I didn't think anything about it. When I turned on my car and the radio came on, I found out. I don't remember driving home. I do remember when I got home I couldn't get out of the car. I just sat there in a daze and listened to the radio. One thing that for some reason shocked me that day is that Dan Rather - a fixture of my childhood as a news anchor - was reporting and his voice shook. I had watched him for decades report on wars, earthquakes, crashes... and that time was the only time I remember his voice cracking.
My husband was living in NY on 9/11 and watched the people covered in debris walking across the bridge trying to get home. He said it looked apocalyptic. I live in a military town and still see the results of that day and the following war everyday. Amputees and PTSD is what a lot of our soldiers are dealing with and their sacrifices are already largely forgotten by most.
burned into my mind. I was in a meeting at the White House. We didn't find out until later about the Americans that saved us by attacking the cowards in the cockpit crashing the plane prematurely killing all. 18 years later I moved into a house and my next door neighbor was a widow with 2 sons whose husband was on that plane...
Hmmm, that's extremely odd that you didn't understand that this song is full referencing September 11th. I think you are the first reactor that has been in my feed that didn't get that at all. Wow, just wow.
Beautiful Song and sublime voice ! Alan Jackson you're the Best Singer ! ❤❤❤ Thank for sharing !

Amazing singer and a beautiful song. Such a sad day in history.
This was from his heart! Beautiful!
Very moving song and I immediately recognised what is all about
I remember exactly where I was at the road even the curve in was in when it came across the radio. Drove a truck for a living.
Alan Jackson is country music legend

I appreciate you waiting until the end of the song to make your comments. Good job, thanks.

It was very early in the morning when I saw this happening on TV. I called my brothers and told them make sure your guns are loaded
