This was so gorgeous, I’ve been brought to tears. My dad passed two years ago this month, and he was a veterans advocate. His favorite film was The Sound of Music, so seeing her perform this and seeing our wounded veterans honored at the same time, I could absolutely feel his presence with me.
God bless you and your father and his service. He is most definitely with you and always will be. Legendary songs can definitely make us feel their presence more intensely.❤
My father is a retired US army veteran he’s finally getting all of his benefits now after all these years I’m a proud daughter and I have so much respect for our military love this song from the sound of music I always have.
This was absolutely beautiful being a daughter of a retired US army national guard medic is pretty incredible after all these years with my father finally getting what he deserved after all these years I’m so proud to be an American and I’m proud daughter of a us army veteran so proud and this song from the sound of music always puts tears to my eyes because. These walls aren’t to shut out the problems you have face them you have to live the life you where born to live it’s the truth
I suspect Renee spent time with the military families before the concert. They are all looking at her with adoration. Beautiful song, beautifully performed.
Why does Renee Fleming ruin this song with the Broadway stylizations (which the Broadway version didn't use lol)? This would be so magnificent if she just sang it straight.
