      It's not that surprising if you realize that we Canadians have experienced the rules and laws of a different country. If you're a natural born American it's easy to take it for granted.

      Expose yourself to Bernie Taupin's lyrics on Elton John's Tumbleweed Connection (1970)and Roy Rogers on Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (1973). An Englishman that captures the essence of the Civil War and good times past in America.

    Mmm, slight correction; this song came out a few months ago, well before the current LA fires.
    He’s just referencing the metaphor of the whole country “going up in smoke” during the Biden Presidency.
    *edit* On second thought, Tom & Nova live & film in LA…I wonder if the area they filmed this in is currently on fire? 😮😢 (Jan. 13,2024)

    I get the clickbait rhetoric saying he released 'coinciding' with the LA fires,but it just ain't true. Doesn't hold water so to speak and goes down in flames.
    Never assume your audience isn't smart enough to call out bs and a hype flex, even if we're reguksr listeners.
    Take it from this 70 year old grandma, I know Tom's music and am aware when a fair amount of it releases. So don't kid a kidder, cuz when you assume, you make an 'ass' out of 'u' and 'me'.

    I'm always amazed at how many complain about all the problems with America, yet so many are coming here from other countries; and how few disgruntled Americans actually leave to go to other countries. Hmmm, it's almost as if they don't know what they're talking about.

    This song has been around a views months...I think. It has been a earworm for me. Favorite part....you can hear in the wind. America got it's issues but if we fight together rather than each...we have a chance
    Not blue or red...just RED WHITE AND BLUE

    None of what he wrote is related to the Cali fires, unless he can see the future.
    They released this song 2 months ago. 😂

    To me this is Tom’s best song he has ever made . It is smooth and it makes sense and it is so patriotic. On Monday the 20th, this song will be the song of the day at my house.

    That video was def filmed somewhere in central California. The landscape is unmistakable. Those golden rolling hills between the coastal mountain range and the flat central valley.

      Exactly. "Fire and smoke" is referencing the riots. Really wish Knowles had done a little research.
