Battle Hymn of the Republic

[GMNov]

We've spoke before Danielle. My favourite hymn. Never get tired of watching this video.

Merry Christmas to you & your family from Airdrie, Scotland!

[forgt0361]

Inspirational!

[vinniechan]

I always like this hymn in a quicker tempo. This one is about right. I just think doing slow takes away the power of it.

[transdcr]

Excellent video!

5/5

[LorettaSwitFan1]

NEAT-O!! this is sooooooooo cool!! :)

[XoNiCoLeY93oX]

we're singing this in choir just like this. I LOVE it :)

[goalie4life1830]

where can i find a version of this song that is sung by soldiers and not this girly high piched bullshit?

[XoNiCoLeY93oX]

uhm if you listen to the beginning smart one it's not that high pitched.

try listening with your EARS.

[goalie4life1830]

I can't, sadly I'm tone deaf... :(

[spider47]

the choral part of this is sung by the mormon tabernacle choir; it's here on youtube: just search for mormon tabernacle and it's one of the first entries you'll see.

[angler4941]

great song, and vid! thanks for posting..

[Twistterclaw101]

i luv the song, but who the heck did you manage to get all those lights up?!

[DanielleEarl]

Thanks, and I put them up myself. This was the 2006 display. This is nothing compared with 2007 - this was using a ladder - 2007 I rented a commercial lift.

[mstevens94]

@DanielleEarl; Well you did a heck of a job putting em up and them following the rhythm of the song.

[Joemantler]

There is a house in town that has had a light show like this for many years. the guy actually bought the house next door to expand the show. Everyone who comes is nice, respectful, and in good spirits.

I hope that they never shut it down. Private people creating these wonderful attractions! I cant say enough good things about it!

[Natural199]

yeah, mormons were so racist, that they perdicted the civil war and who the winner was gonna be, in fact mormons are so evil that they try to help every single human being, how dare they, from the civil war all the way to the beaches of normandy, man mormons are truly racist, in fact they are so evil that they stood againts the confederates, man I we should look to the catholics who help nazis slaughter thousands, now they are not racist, no one is perfect, stop judging, or be judge the same.

[denwik]

glory glory man united

[DanielleEarl]

Yes - they are in front of my home. And thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! This was actually the display from 2006 - I posted a video response above from 2007.

[gailed1992]

Awsome 5 stars

[agollaglee]

WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS!:d THAT IS HOW IT SHOULD BE not all thie crappy political correctness its merry christmas and thats what we are celebrating so they can shut thier faces MERRY CHRITMAS

[innatesource]

P.S. it is so good to see Merry Christmas instead of Happy holidays!!

[sschurr4219]

I can appreciate people celebrating thier religious holidays....so they should be able to appreciate Christians celebrating ours. Diplomatic should have NOTHING to do with it.

[Dt0x75]

stGandalf. I know this is a bit old, but you have to understand this country is based on Christianity. Yes we have freedom of religion, but its based on Christianity. You cant put Religion in Politics so leave Politics out of Religion. Simple as that.

[macrostar1936]

...the best yet!

[mrsconwoo]

If you enjoy goose pimples this video is definitely for you !!!!!

[ArtPatch]

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!++++++++++++

[fishbuc11]

Thank you Danielle! Merry Christmas to all! And God Bless America!

[Parspatou]

Well then, I look forward to seeing it again NEXT YEAR!!! You're a GREAT AMERICAN Danielle Earl!! GOD BLESS YOU!!

[Parspatou]

I wish YOU were my neighbor!! I appreciate this incredible display of both patriotism & Christmas cheer. Thank you so much and I look forward to next year!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

[DanielleEarl]

Thank you! Actually this was LAST years' show. I just posted this years' video as a video reply. Sound is better, and so are the lights!

[peludo321654]

very patriotic mean while wait til` the merging economies of mexico canada and u.s.a.

[mamanurse3]

GOD BLESS!

[Violinstef]

Visually awesome, but hard to hear the audio.

[DanielleEarl]

I agree. The music on this CD was very quiet. My son says he has a program that can increase the volume for me. I will be posting this year's show within the next week, and hopefully he can, in fact, fix the audio. It is unfortunately, this quiet in my live show too. I feel horrible because the people watching do so through their car radios and after this song is over, I imagine the next one coming on so loud it scares people!

[DanielleEarl]

OK - my son fixed the audio for me, and I used the louder audio to do my 2007 video of this song. It's posted as a video response above. ~Danielle

[mars845]

that just gave me goosebumps

[USAgal76]

I would like to see Stars and Stripes Forever and other patriotic songs. That would be really cool!

[DanielleEarl]

That would be really cool!!! Thanks for the suggestion. I will work on that for next year.

[USAgal76]

SWEEEEEEEEEEEET! I can't wait to see one of my favorite American tunes in Christmas lights. Include some patriotic colors as well.

[DanielleEarl]

Will do!

[antiafca]

two strings of white...

juist like me, only mine are lines..__/

[DavidthebelovedofGod]

That was very cool...the merry Christmas police are gonna get ya...lol

[twilightseven]

did you know that the first person to create "the dancing Christmas lights" on a house was a retired coast guard member. My brother was in the coast guard and he and all his ship mates were talking about it. Way back before these started poping up all over the place and the ones in the commercials were by this one retired coast guard member.

[ericd727]

and a merry christmas to you

[lostinconfusion1014]

that was just freaking awesome

[RinEdition]

Flippen' awesome!

[ColdOneK]

PRAISE BE METAL

[darktigerqueen]

Thats awesome

[quikfax]

As Darth Vader would say: Most impressive...

[Chipcrumbs55]

hey theres two verses missing :O the fiery gospel and the trumpet that will never call retreat....its after the dew and damps verse

[MyturBinisdrty]

ooo i that that was a choir until i saw that car go by i was like what the heck

[DanielleEarl]

No - these are my Christmas lights out in front of my house. We live on a corner, and at the time I have my lights going on (from 5pm-10pm) it was really hard to video an entire song length without ending up with a car (or 10) driving by.

[Chipcrumbs55]

kept the neighbors up all night eh?

[DanielleEarl]

Not quite. I only had the lights on until 10pm, and the sound was going through an FM transmitter, so you had to listen to the music through your walkman or car stereo. So all the neighbors could see was the flashing lights.

[Chipcrumbs55]

but those lights are so bright!!!! lol i would be up all night even without the music

[MyturBinisdrty]

00000, ok ive seen choirs with lights before tho

[SFforlife]

Northside

[DanielleEarl]

??? What does that mean?

[SFforlife]

Union Army baby

[jjean1hotmail]

thats cool

[DESheffield2nd]

i can see who won the Christmas light compatition. lol excelent lights and excelent song.

[yilishihfu]

Excellent!

[GMNov]

Thank You very much. Will I be able to download them onto my PC from there?

[DanielleEarl]

No, I took the downloadable ones off the website because the files were HUGE - and put them here instead.

[GMNov]

I am from Scotland, but that was brilliant. That's my favourite hymn. I've saved it onto my favourites. Is that your Home? How did you come to put it all together?

[DanielleEarl]

Yes, that's my home. I choreograph the lights to music and I have 64 channels running the lights. (And I love that hymn too, which is why it's in the show, even though it's technically not a Christmas song!)

[DanielleEarl]

I've added my website to my info if you want to see the house with the lights all on & on photo album, with the lights all off!

[GMNov]

Thank you for your response. Do you have anymore? If you do, could you send me them to my normal email addy? As well as that one of course?

[seiger77]

Awesome thank you very much!

[downthesuhr]

Excellent!!!

[loislanethelover]

wow

[DanielleEarl]

Thank you! Glad you liked it.
