  • you sound really good

  • Really? People have to spam on this video?

  • Comment removed

  • Galing... Great voice dude =)

  • Amazingly beautiful!

  • Beautiful!

  • Great video! :)

  • Oh wow, I loved this :) Good job!

  • you are a demon!

  • Salamat po, kababayan!

  • never fails to leave me in awe...

    amazing Chris! uhh-mazing!!!!

  • Chris Cendana, you're uber talented, bro!

  • this was a great vid btw, you're voice is beautiful, Chris. :) it made me tear up

  • beautiful! did you do all the harmonies?

  • Wow....thats all I can say, wonderful

  • dude... this is amazing... it sent chills up my back no joke.... i make movies and i wanna make one about september 11th can i use this?

  • its good.. thought i didn't like the harmonies very much.

  • fyi ametrida, if you want to be specific, the Americas consists of South and North America, which are separate continents... so in fact America = 2 continents, lol.

    btw, totally awesome acapella Chris!

  • True, that is perfect. So it it supports my critics. We could be even more specific and mentioning the Panamanian isthmus and how the two continent came in contact ca. 3 million years ago, etc, etc. The whole point that I wanted to make is that is politically incorrect to adopt the name America to refer simply to a single country. But I am asking too much to people that is TOO pride.

  • yep

  • it is here for us to appreciate, not depreciate

    ..amazingly put..

    ive seen 2 of your videos and both have been good (to say the least)

  • that was beautiful -sniff- :D

  • America Rules

  • Being a proud Citizen of the U.S. and a U.S. Marine, I want to thank you for that. That was very beautiful.

  • Oraaah! baby!

  • you sing very well and you totally should keep this up. but my question is whats with the words that you always put on the end of your discription? youre awesome and a great person

    ~Artgirl7777

  • great job! you are so right, we are truly blessed to be in america.

  • Freakin awesome dude, you're an awesome person and a fantastic singer as well.

  • that was beautiful...well said

  • i know this has nothing to do with this video, but you should totally play Boy With a Coin by Iron and Wine. even if you just played the guitar part, it would be amazing.

  • I really liked this Chris!!! Fantastic song!!

  • Bro, that was tight!!!! Loved it:)

  • god bless america

    -not an american

  • U SAID A BAD WORD TO CCENDANA! UR BAD

  • Beautiful!

  • go U.S.A. and go chris!!!

  • thank you for reminding us, in a very beautiful way, how blessed we are to be here in the United States . . . .

    God bless you!

    By the way, you can sing dude!!

  • your awesome and it was very cool of you to put "in God we Trust" at the end of your video! thanks for keeping me entertained for the few mins your vids last!

  • AMAZING!!!!

  • ur songs always make me stop and go... why arent i that good? lol

  • Wow Chris, I think I may have commented on this before, but I just have to tell you that you are my favorite person on Youtube. Your talent is so genuine and you're simply amazing. I am so happy to be a subscriber.

  • YAY!!! GR8 JOB HAPPY belated 4TH!!!

  • My mom gets so funny when I show her your videos because she knows a "celebrity". She has totally had a crush on your since we were in high school.

  • lovely thanks!

  • It's wonderfulll :)

  • awesome.

  • I don't normally comment, but I appreciate the message you gave out here. It sounded good and I liked the way you put it down.

    GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

  • Handsome yet charming :)

  • Hey dude. Really nice video, and as usual beautiful voce. Good job for making a video to remind us of where we come from.

  • Thank you Chris. You are a real Man for taking this opportunity to redirect the many negative thoughts that are obvious in this great country of ours. God Bless the U.S.

  • Hey man, Nice job. I think you should bring the backround voices out a little. Right now there kind of in the backround and the lead is taking over. Bringing them out will embelish the melody instead of just giving it something to sit on.

  • great voice how did u do the harmonys?

  • Thank you for this video. I am in the U.S. Air Force and am currently deployed. This song means a lot to me. As you can tell not too many peple care anymore. I think it is because they feel that this great country has done nothing for them directly. Coming from this side, I see both sides. So once again thank you for this.

  • ONE LOVE CHRIS! :)

  • everyone just be quiet. and enjoy the music. he has sang a beautiful cover with a good message. everyone has their own opinions but if it's not nice keep it to yourself.

  • He did indeed do a great job and has a great voice, and thats why I subscribed a long time ago. However, people are not reacting to the video imo, more to the comments being left behind. Chris's message is fine, great even (w.r.t. western life in general) its how its being reacted upon his/your(?) fellow countrymen that is making others (like myself) air our own oppinions. In regards to not airing your opinion if it isn't 'nice'...welcome to the internet and free speech.

  • dude,thanks for this. i was in mid-complaint when i watched this,boy did it shut me up. those of us living in America have it good, we just don't appreciate it. screw high gas prices or the fact that the Celtics won the championship. it's because we have it so good that we consider the minor things such an inconvenience. In God We Trust,indeed.

    God Bless America.

  • Awesome CHRIS!!!

    Prime STUFF here!!

    daniel =))))

  • i agree! well done

  • stupid comment

  • Bravo!

  • BEAUTIFUL!! i love it..and im not even from America! =D

  • Thank you for your great heart Chris!

  • Wow, you are really good. Gonna watch your other videos now. :)

  • this was nice, I'm usually complaining bout everything that wrong w/ the US but never really stopped to thank God for it...we are alive, we have decent police authority and we do not suffer from famines and bomb threats...so i'm grateful, thanks for reminding me...your harmony was sooo beautiful, good choice of song too.

  • Awesome acapella version. great job 5* A.D. :))

  • indeed Chris. indeed. i so agree with you.

  • It seems as if people are getting the wrong point about this video.

    Stop hating and enjoy life because it is beautiful. We are all made under God. People forget that no matter what goes on in the world, everyday can be a fresh start. Why not start here?

    Why not start... anywhere?

  • it's on the dollar bills, dude. and it is his video to say whatever he wants on it. why get all PC?

  • It's too bad there aren't actually four of you, maybe I could get one for myself haha! This is an amazing version!

  • Beautiful singing, as always! You make a good point in your video that even though things in America can get screwed up from time to time (like right now!) it is still the land of opportunity. And yes, life is beautiful. Hope your 4th was a good one!

  • Okay, how?

  • at the end, in god we trust.

  • Not to offend you, but how is that phrase wrong?

  • That was gorgeous!

    Peace, love.

  • Happy 4th of July to you too man, altho im Canadian, i have many friends in the states :)

    Take care and enjoy! <3

  • Wow! This is amazing. I'm a Canadian but appreciative of my neighbours and wishing you a Happy 4th of July weekend! Wonderful voice Chris!

  • Wow, that is beautiful. This should be featured on the home page on YouTube right now.

  • Hey Chris, Very Nice! I like the message. Life Is Short, Be Happy! It's that simple!

    Aloha,

    Dayton

  • Awesome rendition! I'm glad you can be patriotic about your country, I won't say more than that cos I am biased ;-)

  • Nothing wrong with being patriotic. However, the US has some serious home and foreign policy issues that need to be improved (like your healthcare system, the wars to name two of the hottest of the moment). So I sort of understand the negative sounds about the USA to some extent. The US (generalising here) seems to come across as being bigger/better than the rest and shouting about it a lot, and being hypcrytical at the same time. I think that is what irritates a lot of non-americans.

  • you're are missing the entire point of this video.

  • how cool! thanks for the upload...

    check out my vids/subscribe? =)

  • this is great~

  • WE AS AMERICANS SHOULD NEVER TAKE FOR GRANTED THAT WE ARE AMERICANS NO MATTER HOW FUCKED UP THE POLITIANS MAKE OUR COUNRTY.WE AS AMERICANS HAVE TO COME TOGETHER REGUARDLESS OF RACE,RELIGION, OR CREED,TO LOVE AND RESPECT EACHOTHER AND TO KEEP FREEDOM FREE FROM THE TYRANICAL GRIP THE GOVERMENT HAS ON US.WE HAVE TO MOVE TOWARD ONE COMMON GOAL TAKING BACK OUR COUNTRY FROM AMERICA Inc. I AM AN AMERICAN AND IM NOT FOR SALE. YEA I SAID IT! HAPPY 4 JULY! WILL THAT MEAN ANYTHING IN THE FUTURE.INDEP DAY

  • Beautiful harmonies!

  • niiiiiiiiiiiiice!

  • Great rendition & thank you for the messages. I know not everyone agrees with everything, like the war. Not agreeing in itself does not make you unpatriotic. However, supporting the troops, as opposed to spitting on them like was done to the Vietnam veterans, should be what Americans should do. Support for the troops does not make you pro war. Whether you agree with the war or not, pray for and support our brave men and women who are putting their lives on the line for their country.

  • Beautiful!

  • hmm...nice singing...but i dont like this patriotism :-P

  • Well why would you if You live in Germany ?

  • what do u mean by this? that i can't be proud about Germany?

  • I mean if Your German why would You care about American patriotism ! Be proud Germany all You want .

  • yes your right...american partriotism doesnt interested me. i dont like patriotism at all, because why could you be proud of a country?you should be HAPPY/GREATFUL of the whole world and not just proud of a country where you were born.

    im not proud of any country, im happy to live here...

    but what means 'proud'?

    Feeling pleasurable satisfaction over an act, possession, quality, or relationship by which one measures one's stature or self-worth.

  • Thats a good point ! Thank You for Your reply ! BYE

  • go live in a less fortunate country and then tell me that our country is not great.

    we have so many opportunities for all types of people and religions.

    you go almost anywhere else and you wont find that.

    not even in the least bit.

    there is no way I'm happy for the whole world because the whole world is not free.

    the WHOLE WORLD does not get choices.

  • Buschelhase, Why don't you like patriotism?

  • Buschelhase, I'm an American, son of a Filipino immigrant. America has provided multiple opportunities for me and my family that would never have happened if my dad had stayed in the Philippines. Do you live in Buschel?

  • Beautiful cover chriscendana

    <3

  • your harmonies and timing is extremely tight. it's apparent that you work very hard on your stuff.

  • I find it interesting who's singing the song here.

  • In this world of growing uncertainties, this day gives us the opportunity to be proud in our nation, and it is a reminder of what this day really means: to be North American and what it stands for, to show who we are, and what we believe in; you can feel the magic in the air.

    It's a bless, we are very proud to be North American and we are thankful to be living in the most beautiful and fantastic country.

    Happy 4th of July and 1st of July to you and your family.

  • Thank You for the song and your effort, It is so beautiful.

    double Thumps Up :-D

  • i often wonder why we have to be so divided???

    i am a north american also known as Canadian. why is there such a divide in this world??

  • Easily the best. I love acapella/barbershop quartet stuff.  It was great.

  • noooo!!! we should just ignore all the people who say "american" refers to all people from the americas (north, south, central) when, in essence, people from the US are the true americans because we're the only ones who recognize ourselves as americans. besides, what else would we call ourselves??? thank you for understanding. ^^

  • isnt every 1 american?

  • good voice!!!lol!happy 4th of july everyone!!!!!

  • A very excellent rendition plus good reminders of what we should be thankful for.
