God bless America
Land that I love.
Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night with the light from above.
From the mountains to the prairies
To the oceans wide with hope
God bless America
My home sweet home.
From the mountains to the prairies
To the oceans wide with hope
God bless America
My home sweet home.
God bless America
My home sweet home
Deanna Durbin had one of the most wonderful voices. i have several of her movies on DVD. only explanation i can give for the poor rating of God Bless America by someone is that is a Philadelphia Flyers fan who remembers Kate Smith singing at their home games during he 1970s. Their home record when she performed was almost perfect. they did a tribute to her a number of years ago, interspersing a video of her along with the daughter of the Flyers announcer singing it.
Song :
God bless America
Land that I love
Stand beside her and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above
From the mountains, to the prairies
To the oceans white with foam
God bless America
My home, sweet home
God bless America
My home, sweet home
Loving Kate Smith's version (which I certainly do) should not make any sane person hate Deanna Durbin's. That said, the good people of Philadelphia once booed Santa Claus and pelted him with snowballs, so anything's possible. Still, I think we have a disturbed individual who hates the U.S. or religion.
Thanks for the nice comment, Beeswaxer. I just posted it this morning, and someone came over and dropped a one star rating on it. That's never happened to one of my Durbin recordings before. I'm guessing this sad individual either hates Deanna, America, or God. Either way, that person has a lot of issues that one starring things he hates will not solve.
This is one of many videos I have uploaded that has been subjected to a phony copyright claim by "Orchard Music". This is a public domain recording. Please do not click on any links below the video. This criminal conduct by Orchard Music should not be rewarded.
STUNNING, STUNNING!!!!! What a pity there are not singers of this callibre singing today. Sadly we have to put up with less than mediocre forgettable singing nowadays!!! Brava Deanna!
