Everybody was singing,cheering and rocking with Mr.Diamond's "Jake Robbins"at the end of the 1981 movie remake of"The Jazz Singer"..Al..including Ms.Arnaz,the character actor playing the talent manager, and Sir Larry Olivier.
That was all Neil Diamond. He did that pose on his own which was super cool and the movie people used that pose and made it work for the film's poster.
Hope.....in the eye of a storm. Freedom’s light burning warm. Epic. Words that can ignite the soul, if we don’t forget the meaning. Thank you Mr Diamond.
I love this movie and this is my favorite part. I love the look on his dads face when he hears and sees how the crowd reacts to his music. Such a great movie
A great part to me is how his father saw what his son had done. Even though he'd been a cantor now he sang for everyone and his father saw that how they loved him and his marvelous music and tribute to our great nation with it's freedoms. It's too bad we can't see the whole movie.
Lost my Grandfather to Parkinson's. My prayers are with you sir I your journey to fight this dreaded disease....your fans believe in you and what you are made of sir......God Speed in this fight.
You mean like your ancestors did lol you are a joke if you don’t think you are living on stolen land that was taken by people illegally but keep being MAGA how’s that working out for you? @@ForceMaximus84
As powerful as it was when my mom grabbed my hand as a teenager and we drove to Newark Shopping Center to see the movie on a Saturday afternoon. I will NEVER forget that. {{{ psssst: Watch. the. Movie. on the biggest screen you have with the best sound system :) }}} Thanks Mom/ Jacqui 💖👑💃🏻💃🏻 Thanks, Terry: "Lisa this isDing..." 😘
His voice is wonderful and I've loved listening to him since the 70s. I have his records and CDs so I'll still be able to hear that voice, even if he can no longer sing. He and Linda... two of my favorite singers. He is FANTASTIC in concert!
Not The Republican Congress and Senate..That idiot in"The White House" and the rest of those idiots..who work for him in there..they should listen to this tune.
I saw this film when I was a teenager at university...now, I am nearly 55...TEMPUS FUGIT! TIME FLIES! IT MADE HOWEVER AN INDELIBLE IMPRESSION ON MY SOUL....IN PARTICULAR THIS SONG..."TODAY, TODAY, TODAY..." TRULY TIMELESS!
Saw The Jazz Singer many years ago, amazing emotional musical masterpiece of a film! Looking to buy dvd tomorrow as not seen it since. Can’t wait! Neil diamond will always be a legend
Absolutely fantastic movie! All of the great songs that came from the movie is amazing. Always loved the movie, most especially Neil Diamond and his singing. Fantastic voice. These were the days when true artistry took place...full orchestra's. Thank you for all of the fine songs and years of listening to you Mr. Diamond.
This song is amazing. For those who immigrated to America, it must be amazing seeing the statue of liberty. I can't imagine it. But to those who were born and raised here, know how blessed you are to be an American. Only country that has this freedom and should show respect for it and stop whining about the problems with America and strive to make a difference by example of the life you live, way you behave.
A great singer I bought this film on video the first film I bought .i have it now DVDs .i saw Neil in the 70 s at Wembley .he was great .sorry to see he's retiring .

I have the movie loved the music cranked up the music when he was singing big fan of Neil Diamond ever since I was early teens now I am just about 72yrs young
I saw him in Cincinnati in 1999 and I was at the back of the arena watching him sing thru a pair of binoculars. I saw him do that little “push” that he did in this scene. It was very surreal and cool! 🎼😀🎤
Beautiful! This brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. It makes me think of my grandparents and aunt coming to America by ship all those years ago. This one's for you, Grossemutti!
Esther Feingold sure does my parents immigranted from Europe yes!!! and made a pretty good life and didn't try to change American ways they became American!!!!today is the 4th of July song gives me chills for all the immigrates!!!!!God b less the USA!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
