This song is so special to me. I lost my wonderful son in Iraq and this was one of the tribute songs that were played at his ceremony. He is now at rest with all the other heroes at Arlington Cemetery
theres nothing i may say to comfort this loss. but we will all be together some time when our time has come and your son cannot be thanked enough for his service and loyalty. god bless you and your family.

No. I don't agree with it I believe their are much more respectful ways too protest than to kneel during the national anthem. But I'm also going to be respectful in my approach because when you can't respect other people and just have a civil conversation about your views than why even have a democratic republic. Also I think a big problem people have with these protests is people have to deal with politics all day long at their jobs talking to coworkers, on social media , it's plastered all over movies and tv shows etc. People when they sit down to watch a game they don't want to see more politics they want to watch there favorite team win that game and just enjoy it.
@@Cody435 please I beg you to do more research before deciding to reply. Kneeling is a form of respect in the us military. Please look into it. As for more “respectful” ways to protest. In the past when African Americans protested against systematic oppression,they got sprayed with hoses,spit on,stomped on,shot,jailed,called terrorists and a much more ugly and nasty things. Why would hearing about a innocent black youth getting killed by a racist cop make you say “MaN I JUsT WaNnA WaTCH mY TEaM” You said because there “surround” by “politics” All day at work? Since when is a cop kneeling on a mans neck after he repeatedly said he couldn’t breath politics? You are clearly trying to deflect and deflate a problem that your uncomfortable admitting is a problem So what does that make you?

When I was naturalized to become a U.S. citizen in 2008, this patriotic song was played via a video and it was my very first time hearing it. I was immediately struck with the lyrics and melody...I had goosebumps then. I really love this song. God bless the USA!❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
congratulations and welcome to the US, fellow American! i apologize on behalf of our corrupt and unrepresentative (allegedly stolen) government at this time, but rest assured that your fellow countrymen/women appreciate you being here, and wish that more people in our country had your mindset. as an “acquisition” type citizen who was born here to two US citizens, it breaks my heart that some people are willing to overlook “basic humanity” for “political correctness” in what they choose to support. God bless from Texas, and i appreciate that you are here friend!
As one born in Brooklyn and a Vietnam Veteran, I have nothing but contempt for the Vietnam draft evader, Lee Greenwood. We say "NEVER FORGET" about 9/11 (and rightly so), but we forgot that when this peckerwood's chance to serve came up, he ran like a byatch.
We will never forget! We will never forget how this nation united as one, regardless of the circumstances and political environment, to be better neighbors and friends and loved ones! We will never forget how NYPD and FDNY rushed into perilous conditions to save people! We will never forget how this day touched all Americans. America, America, GOD shed His grace on thee!

Damn right I grew up singing this song in school since elementary and its sad to see they don't recognize this song or even say the pledge of allegiance anymore
@@Galactus23 , I remember standing up, placing my right hand on my chest and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance to the United States of America, every single morning in Elementary School, Junior High School, and Senior High School, even on Graduation day, June, 1967. I love my Country, and I'm 71 years old.
I’m sitting here with my five-year-old son putting together a puzzle on a Saturday afternoon. He honestly said dad can you play this song “I’m proud to be an American “. No lies. The flag stands for freedom and you can’t take that away.
@@calebspangler132 He performed it about two weeks after when we there for the families, my daughter says it was the 23rd. Hard to remember, first break from volunteering downtown and it was a blur.
Lee isn’t even wearing those “in-ear” things that help block out all of the extra noise and he still perfectly delivered a strong, powerful, heartfelt message through his song…amazing
@@saddletramp6935 "Their origins as a tool in live music performance can be traced back to the mid-1980s". They can be connected by cable to the sender / receiver thingy that can be clipped on your belt, so they didn't have to solve how to make it small enough (like wireless earbuds now without receiver). After that it's just radiowaves, so there is surprisingly enough no difficult technology involved! :)
Very emotional song. Proud to say that my family has represented the military in all branches Army , Navy, Marine Corp . Cousin landed at D Day . He was our hero growing up
thank you and your family for your service and for liberating europe from a criminal madman. this is long forgotten and does not do justice to american soldiers who cannot be thanked and honoured enough. god bless you. god bless america.
Well that's twice we've been sucker-punched in America. Because we let our guard down. Because our enemy come from another Direction. We have great men and women in our Armed Forces today and I pray that they will be alert and safe on the next strike will be the third one and it may be the last one for our country. God bless our troops and please stay alert. Thank you for serving our country God bless you and your families and Friends love you all thank you for your endless sacrifice for your country! I am proud to be American for this is the Promised Land even Israel
To those who are watching this, note the date of when this was recorded. That was less than 2 months after 9/11. Must have been quite an emotional feeling across the entire stadium!
I just realized- this was from October 31, 2001. About a month and a half after the 9/11 attacks in New York. This is at Yankee Stadium, obviously in New York. This must have been so much more emotional for some people there than some people think. God Bless America
If I know one thing, when a team or a teams city is in the news it brings hope to their fans, New York went through a major loss that year and so a lot of people thought it was good for the Yankees that year, although I think it also predicted the World Series eight years later.
+Jude Law it could be the fact America went through so much that year that they wanted to honor the Americans that died on 9/11. Look how far the nation has been through since then, with Americans still attacking their own race even, we realize Anerica made the biggest sacrifice of all by sending over 90 million troops overseas.

Lee Greenwood truly sings from his heart. I'm so glad it was him who wrote and performed this most moving and patriotic song for our country. The first time I heard it I was beaming with pride inside. It makes me cry happy tears. We need that spirit to keep going when though times hit us. We need God in our hearts and lives. Without God, we are nothing and have nothing. God bless the USA and the Whole World You Created!!!!! AMEN!
@@ZhangK71 no need for your negative disrespectful comment either. This person felt the right to say what is truly missing in this country. To call God nonsense is nothing short of ignorance. If you dont want to believe on God that's fine. Keep it to yourself or go to another video that supports your belief. Here we believe in God freedom, sacrifice and country. That is what the song is about. Dont like it, then tough
You can see how emotional this was making the players even before a huge World Series game. The WTC rubble was still smoldering in Manhattan. The torn WTC flag flying in the outfield. What an incredible scene.
Liberalism, a liberal media, and liberal school system that has brainwashed our people into hating our country while others outside our country would do anything to be here.
I personally will never forget the day that my us navy ship sailed along side the aircraft carrier, *USS America* and the group of sailors who stood up on the middle deck of the bridge tower facing our ship and sang this song to us nonstop for 3 hours while we refueled and resupplied them at sea. I was a member of the replenishment crew on board the fast attack oiler, *USS Savannah*, the america battle group, persian gulf. I dont know if any of those sailors would remember the savannah, but we remember you. Whenever I hear this song thats what I think of.
no. we hate the government, we dont hate the country. the country is the constitution, and the bill of rights and the ideals that are in those documents. the government is NOT what i will defend. and politician, no matter democrat or republican, if they dont defend the constitution they need to be removed. period.
The ones who hate this country have the loudest voices... Notice how #trump2020 has millions of posts compared to #biden2020? Its actually a mind blowing number. Millennials hate this country. Gen Z sees through the bullshit
@@angryzak4389 This is UA-cam...serious political debate is not what YT is known for... watching Coin pushers and competitive eaters and CAT VIDEOS is the favored fare....

It is sad, Mossad and the CIA may have blowen up the towers to force regime changes and new homeland surveillance systems in the USA, lot of people got rich, lot of freedoms were trampled on,,still a great song though
It is beyond sad and it is even more sad today two years later. I never thought I would see our flag burned in our own streets! I am trying to have faith my brothers and sisters will wake up. Our Democratic party has been bought by China.
That makes me emotional and I’m a Canadian. I love my American friends so much. Let’s get back to that time whenever everyone stood as one. We can do it. Don’t let our governments pull us apart. They are there to represent us, not dictate to us. Stand tall. Stand together. 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸

Criticism of the status quo doesn't make one any less patriotic... If anything, a true patriot is one who will speak up (or take a knee) to bring awareness to the issues.
I remember a day when we were united, we really don't have much unity now. Partisan politics has divided us. This is a fantastic song. I hope it reunites us as Americans. Reminds us of the freedoms we have. God bless America.
america is a land of immigrants ..dont ever forget that. your kids will be true americans and you will be the 1st generation that immigrated here. (of course natives were here before)
Remember when it was customary to sing The Star Spangeled and prayer before school/classes started, standing with our right over the hear - from elementary through school
Millie B Lofton: we used to say the Pledge of Allegiance every morning also. I don't believe my children ever said the Pledge of Allegiance when they were in school.
@LakersReaction I do love this song I especially love this video because it was right after 9/11. America was actually United for once. Everybody looked out for each other. I mean is it going to take another tragedy to unite America again?
@@christianmama24 sadly thats how it seems like.. we are so divided.. i wish our President tries to unite us more than the left has, since Obama was in.. the racial tensions grew when he won back in '08 just my opinion

Exactly. We didn't kneel at Lexington and Concord. We didn't kneel at Bunker Hill. We didn't kneel at Yorktown. We didn't kneel at the Battle of New Orleans. We didn't kneel at Gettysburg. We didn't kneel in WW1. We didn't kneel at Pearl Harbor, France, Germany, Vietnam, Somalia, and you can bet that we didn't kneel in Iraq or Afghanistan.

We owe our veterans our lives and respect. This song is for all of you with a special thanks and love for your ultimate sacrifices to keep our nation great and free! I Salute You All!🇺🇸💯
What a great human being he is ... was an Ensign in the Navy with cancer, my Mom met him in an airport and asked him to call me in the hospital, and he DID! I didnt believe it was him but it was, I was able to thank him several years ago at an Army Navy game but will NEVER NEVER forget his call and how it made me feel as a 22 year old fighting cancer! God Bless you Lee Greenwood then, now and always!
I will never forget it. Earlier on June 24th that year I was in a bad Semi Wreck and it messed my shoulder up bad. I was laying in a MRI machine listening to the local classic rock station on headphones. About 5 min into the test it came across the radio. I remember it plainly. Thinking how does airplane crash into that and being sad. Then 8 to 10 min later they say the second tower was hit. Then I knew without a doubt it was an attack. I also plainly remember April 19th 1995. That was when the federal building was bombed. My father in-law was chief of police for Sac & Fox Nation. They sent officers to help so they let us drive up to the barrier and I was just in awe. The power of that bomb. We had a family friend that worked there but had called in sick that day. I had just turned 19 the end of March and got married on my birthday. Both of those events will stick with me forever. The OKC bombing was the biggest terrorist attack in the country before 911.
This song is so special to me. I lost my wonderful son in Iraq and this was one of the tribute songs that were played at his ceremony. He is now at rest with all the other heroes at Arlington Cemetery
theres nothing i may say to comfort this loss. but we will all be together some time when our time has come and your son cannot be thanked enough for his service and loyalty. god bless you and your family.

In the past when African Americans protested against systematic oppression,they got sprayed with hoses,spit on,stomped on,shot,jailed,called terrorists and a much more ugly and nasty things.
Why would hearing about a innocent black youth getting killed by a racist cop make you say “MaN I JUsT WaNnA WaTCH mY TEaM”
You said because there “surround” by “politics”
All day at work? Since when is a cop kneeling on a mans neck after he repeatedly said he couldn’t breath politics?
You are clearly trying to deflect and deflate a problem that your uncomfortable admitting is a problem
So what does that make you?
Today, on 9/11/2020 my wife becomes a citizen of this great country. God bless the USA!!!
Congratulations to your wife! Please extend my warmest welcome as a fellow citizen of this America the beautiful! I am certain she loves this land and is more worthy to be a citizen than many born here.

Lee isn’t even wearing those “in-ear” things that help block out all of the extra noise and he still perfectly delivered a strong, powerful, heartfelt message through his song…amazing
The in-ear monitors help to hear the backing track, though they also do block out the loud noise of the drums and other things on stage.
It was 2001 were they even invented then?
@@saddletramp6935 "Their origins as a tool in live music performance can be traced back to the mid-1980s". They can be connected by cable to the sender / receiver thingy that can be clipped on your belt, so they didn't have to solve how to make it small enough (like wireless earbuds now without receiver). After that it's just radiowaves, so there is surprisingly enough no difficult technology involved! :)

To those who are watching this, note the date of when this was recorded. That was less than 2 months after 9/11. Must have been quite an emotional feeling across the entire stadium!
God Bless America!
I just realized- this was from October 31, 2001. About a month and a half after the 9/11 attacks in New York. This is at Yankee Stadium, obviously in New York. This must have been so much more emotional for some people there than some people think.
God Bless America
It absolutely was, and still is.
+Ian Cusick why do you think THIS song was picked instead of "take me out to the ballgame" as customary for 7th inning stretches?
If I know one thing, when a team or a teams city is in the news it brings hope to their fans, New York went through a major loss that year and so a lot of people thought it was good for the Yankees that year, although I think it also predicted the World Series eight years later.
+Jude Law it could be the fact America went through so much that year that they wanted to honor the Americans that died on 9/11. Look how far the nation has been through since then, with Americans still attacking their own race even, we realize Anerica made the biggest sacrifice of all by sending over 90 million troops overseas.
The first time the World Series was postponed since the death of FDR

I wasn’t alive for nine eleven but this song still sends shivers down my spine.
I will never forget it. Earlier on June 24th that year I was in a bad Semi Wreck and it messed my shoulder up bad. I was laying in a MRI machine listening to the local classic rock station on headphones. About 5 min into the test it came across the radio. I remember it plainly. Thinking how does airplane crash into that and being sad. Then 8 to 10 min later they say the second tower was hit. Then I knew without a doubt it was an attack. I also plainly remember April 19th 1995. That was when the federal building was bombed. My father in-law was chief of police for Sac & Fox Nation. They sent officers to help so they let us drive up to the barrier and I was just in awe. The power of that bomb. We had a family friend that worked there but had called in sick that day. I had just turned 19 the end of March and got married on my birthday. Both of those events will stick with me forever. The OKC bombing was the biggest terrorist attack in the country before 911.
