CANADIAN JEALOUSY
American patriotism can sometimes seem bizarre to foreingers. Canadians for example. But the strangeness is often rooted in jealousy. At Canadian football and baseball games, we sit on our hands and yawn as someone belts out "O Canada".
Lee Greenwood certainly belts out "God Bless America". And when he does, it brings tears to my eyes and makes me wish that Canadians were as "patriotic" and seemed to love our conutry to the same degree.
Perhaps Greenwood is over the top at times, but who cares. Sit down and wallow in the emotion and sloppiness of the maudlin aspects of the album. Don't get me wrong; I love the music and passion. I only wish my fellow Canadians has similar passion. I am so jealous. America is beautiful but so is my country. But Americans are indeed fortunate to make music like that found in this wonderful album.
AWESOME
When I returned from the Gulf, Lee Greenwood had a concert for us and our families at Marine Corps Base, 29 Palms,CA. There's no way to describe the way we were all feeling, but leave it to say that most of us tough Marines were crying after "God Bless the USA". I bought the tape and have played it every July 4th since. It's so good that now I'm buying the CD.
Great Patriotic CD
My son's fourth grade teacher has this CD and played it for his class quite frequently. My son, who has never expressed much interest in listening to music, came home telling me about it and wanted me to buy one for him. Since it's an older CD, we didn't have much luck finding it in the stores. Thanks to Amazon.com we were able to order it! We really love this CD and I get a kick out of watching my son (who's terribly shy) sing along LOUDLY to all the songs. It's great not only to play around the Fourth of July - but year round as well!
