The scene from "The Sandlot" with this song is one of my all-time favorite movie moments.

@mamalinhager 6 дней назад

❤❤❤❤❤❤ brings me to tears. Love our country so so much... and it is being torn asunder, by greedy, hateful, self-centered... elitists who only care about money and power. Ray really does this song justice... he is awesome. Thank you... may you and your beautiful family have a very happy 4th❤

@scottluvisi9941 6 дней назад

To think that Ray went through all the racism and bullshit, band from performing in some places, and yet here he is singing about the wonderfulness about this county. He was able to see it, even though he was blind.

@josephmallard9053 Час назад

I loved your reaction to the song America by Ray Charles. I used to sing it with my mother. May God bless you and your beautiful family. He is still in charge regardless of what people say and the evil we see around us. He will not forsake us. It is still a beautiful world.

Such a beautiful song!

@liveformybabies1190 5 дней назад

Many years ago Ray Charles was in our town for a concert and contacted the choir my daughter was in to sing this song with him in concert. It was a thrilling time. He came to their rehearsal hall to practice with him.

Tomorrow is going to be one very special day. Celebrate it in the right way. Be thankful for all of the opportunities offered here, if you'll explore them. At this moment in this time, we are blessed beyond comprehension.

@johnmccarthy7158 6 дней назад

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL. You said that very well. I'm glad that you're here also. With all its flaws and blemishes, people are still drawn here for all different reasons.

@mp2557 5 дней назад

Sorry but people are drawn to a lot of countries arround the world. When China took over HK, Canada was more popular to goto then the US.

@susanworkman529 6 дней назад

Happy 4th. If this song doesn't stir up the emotions of patriotism and pride then nothing will . No one sings it with more feeling than Ray.

@colleenmonfross4283 6 дней назад

Gives me goose bumps every time I hear Ray sing this song. Many people have lobbied over the years to have this song become our National Anthem.

@karenj3611 5 дней назад

No one did it better! Should be our National Anthem! RIP Ray

@jackknudson-rk1uv 3 дня назад

Only trouble with that there's no one alive today who can sing it like this.

@mikefetterman6782 6 дней назад

Before Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Elvis and Bill Haley and the rockets, Ray was already a well established hit maker of rock and roll for years.

@hectorsmommy1717 6 дней назад

For those not familiar with all 4 verses (Charles starts out with verse 3): O beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea! O beautiful for pilgrim feet Whose stern, impassioned stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness! America! America! God mend thine every flaw, Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law! O beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved And mercy more than life! America! America! May God thy gold refine Till all success be nobleness And every gain divine! O beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam Undimmed by human tears! America! America! God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea!

If you go to the summit of Pikes Peak in Colorado you will see what inspired this poem written by Katherine Lee Bates in 1893. Music was added by Silias Pratt and revised in 1904. The summit allows a breathtaking view of the Rocky Mts. and you can feel how thin the air is. The visitor center sells donuts that are huge because they blow way up because the altitude! Great place to experience and you are not far from there - go ride the cog railway! Thanks!

@javavoicecafe6968 5 дней назад

A little late but... Another great song for the 4th, and the times we're in, generally... Paul Simon's American Tune with Rhiannon Giddens at the Newport Folk Festival. ⚖️🗽✊ Stay strong everyone!

@jimmywilmore1881 5 дней назад

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!🎇 I was hoping for a special Dan Vasc Star Spangled Banner reaction. I didn’t see that you have reacted to a must listen on the patriotic day!

@byrontowles2018 6 дней назад

The sad, ironic part of it all, is that the most beautiful, spine-tingling versions of "America The Beautiful" & "The Star Spangled Banner" were sung by Ray Charles & Whitney Houston, both African Americans like myself, who still have not been able to fully realize the American dream. Maybe, before I pass on...

@nikonmark37814 4 дня назад

Seb, you need to watch the one he did after 9/11 at the World Series, it'll put tears in your eyes!

As others have said, the early pilgrims fled England because of religious persecution and wanted to worship their God their way. Like our money says “In God We Trust”🎉🎉🎉

@rachelbrachman1510 6 дней назад

"In God We Trust " first appeared on 2 coins in 1884. It was made the national motto in 1956. Our founding fathers had nothing to do with this phrase. The original motto of the USA was "e pluribus unum" which means "of many, one".

@paulgyorok4412 6 дней назад

I can't believe you haven't heard so many songs that are popular. As a musician you should of studied many of these songs.

@scsu5085 5 дней назад

.............Well, ok, it's better than the Jimi Hendrix one you just did, but I don't tend to like traditional American patriotic songs to be soulful. It gets to be more about the individual singing & vocal acrobats (I'm now thinking Whitney Houston), than the subject matter. But no disrespect is felt in this comment.

@patwelch8187 6 дней назад

WHAT is wrong with your neck??? wobbly and broken...

@gailvolm3862 День назад

Too bad they no longer preform all the verses to this songs; like America The Beautiful, God Bless America, and The Star Spangled Banner! They stopped singing them to shorten the song, but also to erase our God centered foundations. Look up the lyrics and you will be amazed.
