  • That is the greatest patch at 1:01 seconds... Spearhead......

  • A wonderful tribute to all service members and we veterans!!! Now thats what i call a real country song not like 90% of the crap thats on the radio today!!! Long live traditional country music, the oldest and best music that humans ever made!!!! if you disagree go kill yourself cause your just a waste of fresh air

  • That's such a fitting song for all service men, women and veterans. this demonstrates the very best of Country music, very very well performed by the late Mr Chris Ledoux. This Song and singer should make every American proud. God Bless the American armed forces...From Canada.

  • I've already responded, but I just wanted to add a special thanks from all us Veterans. What a wonderful song and tribute to those who served and are serving. God bless the U.S.A. and God bless you for posting this video!

  • Semper Fi to all the men and women in uniform...especially those dressed up in (Clas A) blues! My gratitude, and support alway! To the Devil Dogs! OOOHRAH! wish I was with you!

  • To all the men and women who serve this country so bravely- my heartfelt and sincerest thanks. You are "tougher Than the rest". God bless each and everyone of you!

  • honey i am tougher than the rest......

    

  • Chris was one of the original singing cowboy's of our time.....Was a good freind. You will not be forgotten Brother...save a few broncs for me up there.

  • You 4 that don't like this video and song can kiss my Navy, Sub Group VI, Veteran ass!

  • I will always love Chris Ledoux!

  • the three people who dislike this song and/or the video dont have a clue about what it means to put your life on the line for your country. US Navy veteran 1987-1995

  • Im proud of my dad and thank you.

  • When I was a Sailor in the United States Navy during the 1990's, I was introduced to Chris LeDoux's awesome music by a shipmate of mine. He was a cowboy from Oregon, and I preferred metal and hard rock. Chris' awesome music brings me fond memories of my years of service to our great nation, and the fellow men who I served with.

  • Beautiful song and great video. Thanks so much for posting.

    Pardon my ignorance, but what happened to Chris Ledoux? I didn't know he had died. Thanks again for a great video.

  • @FatherTimeST1300 Chris had pancreatic cancer that finally took his life a few years ago ( at a relatively young age) He is sorely missed because he was a truly real and good man.

  • The vidio is splendid.

    For those that bash this vidio as well as slander my country, please go elsewhere to pedal your marxist crap. I am sick of you chicken shit punks. We like it. Go phuck yourselves.

  • Being a veteran from the 60's, the song brings back many memories.

  • If you think it's hard being left behind by someone going on deployment,try standing on the deck in formation as you watch someone who you truly love getting smaller and smaller while you know that mail will take two weeks to get between you.THAT's seperation,my gentle friends.

  • wish u where here chris ledoux u where a hero to us all r.i.p

  • Good cover, not as good the the original, but I like the country feel to it :)

  • Yes, I like this song very much,I even prefer to Bruce Springsteen´s version!Great,great song!

  • USA

    USA

  • God Bless Our Militay and Their Families !!!!Proud to be an American!!!!!!

  • I want to thank all active duty and retired military. I am married to a retired Navy man and am proud of it. I haven't gone through what others have gone through with troops goin to Iraq and Afganistan but I have been through my husband leaving for months at a time and a whole year of maybe seeing him for 3 months worth. It's hard but he did it for all of us in the U.S.

  • Our military, past and present, is sacred ground to me. God bless them for they knew that freedom isn't free! All gave some....... Some gave all. As a Navy Vet from the 70's I want to thank all who are serving, or who have served. This old "anchor clanker" salutes you all!

  • @SuperBrotherBob

    Thank you for your service to this country!! Our Freedom is NOT Free, it never has been and never will be! I have many people in my family retired and active in the service ~ they believe as do I that this country is worth fighting for. Our country may have some issues but she is not lost and she will never be lost as long as there are people like us willing to stick together, believe and fight for what we believe. Forget the Jerks ~ KARMA will get them in the end!!!!

  • Don't you wish people could see what we see when we are overseas and understand what a great country we live in. A lot of people take it for granted because the freedoms are just there. Keep fighting, it's worth it. Wake up America and stop the Progressives. They will take our way of life and ruin everything men and women have fought for since the beginning. Long live the United States of America.

  • God Bless the USA a former veteran of the Gulf I wish gods speed to all my brothers in arms and in harms way. Stay strong and alert and come home soon

  • Bring Back The Draft! At least then these anti-american freaks would actually have something to complain about. Other people from other countries can say what they want about us, but when our own citizens act like this it almost makes me wish our freedoms and way of life weren't so "free". Honestly, if the wars were about oil we would have gone after Saudi Arabia or the UAE. If it was conquest I'm sure we would have chosen a more likely location. If it was meanness we would have stayed home.

  • What a clumbsy choice, to dedicate this great song to the U.S.troups. It's about people looking for love and not about war and god.

  • @Sebas691 "BINGO"

  • I miss Chris Ledoux

  • I love the dress at 2:00 it is awesome.

  • great video!!!god bless the military women &men from the hole world

  • My husband is in the military and I have always loved this song and Chris Ledoux, I am proud to say that I am a military wife with a wonderful husband and God Bless all our men and women over seas and the ones that are home that keep everything going!

  • My husband is in the military and is over seas all the time, I have always loved this song being a Wyoming girl just like Chris Ledoux it's been my fav but set to the military stuff rocks my world makes me love it even more. God Bless our Military and the spouses that are left beind to keep everything together.

  • 00896325 your right Chris LaDoux is the best country singer

  • God bless our military. Never forget them and never forget the ones who gave the ultimate sacrifice to ensure that the idiots can get on Youtube and post derogatory remarks about them! How do some of you sleep at night?

  • Beautiful song. Great instrumental. Yet another gift from God that left us way too soon.

  • Comment removed

  • God bless to all the men and women who serve and protect our country with love Mandy

  • There will never be another Chris LeDoux. He was the best!! R.I.P Chris

  • RIP Chris Ledoux. you were the best!

    wonderful song, excellent cover!

  • Amen to that, KenMacMillan, ......This is the best version of this song ever made

  • Some covers sound better than the original. This is one of them!

  • Amen Ken

  • the words are amazing and powering! my dad says although i like the song too!

  • onethreemen

    Is that as far as you can count? ..............OOOOOOOOOOHHH, It's how many guys you can suck off at once!!!

  • I adore this song, okay so its not necessarily about service men but it does fit in a beautiful way. Lovely pictures too :)

  • oct23rd1969

    Your a pussy. I'm clad you don't live in our country because we don't have room for cowards. I bet you wish you had balls

  • 49 and still in school....wow!! 4th grade that tough on you??

  • @oct23rd1969 ....You can have your asshole-land! And then ask if we care. We don't need any more fags like you here anyways!!! we have enough commie/fag loving libs as it is!

  • @strangefire1 what ass hole land r u talking bout

  • @oct23rd1969

    good.  you are not wanted round here.

  • @oct23rd1969 Learn English before you bash our country, and capitalize the word America you idiot. We invented country music and this internet sight for that matter too so what are you doing here? We feed 3/4ths the world, and lead the medical science industry. Our military is rediculously superior to any other and as far as our debt goes, we've created much of it protecting your stupid country and others like it. So be thankful...

  • @SBombayW How about learning English yourself, you xenhophobic jerk, before bashing someone else.

    You have so many run-on sentences it's impossible to tell where one ends and another begins. 3/4s has no "th"; ridiculously isn't spelled with an e; we spend more on the military than the rest of the world combined, yet were essentially driven out of Iraq and are losing in Afganistan. As an American, I'm sure proud.

    What did *you* have to do with the internet, or YouTube, or medical research?

  • @CPSJSMSUUMUGA  what!!!!!

  • @oct23rd1969 you say this while America fights for freedoms for other countries as well as our own. This war isn't about oil you phuckin douchebag.. It's about terrorism, it's about freedom for others, its about humanitarianism.. shit you and your pathetic country don't have the balls to stand up for..

  • @charityforever1973 Amen!!!!

  • no shoes curlin ere

  • awesome, have always loved this song

  • oooooo i love this song

  • Liked that one, made me laugh :-)

  • I believe it is salled "AN Idiot" ? Not "A" Idiot. You, Good Sir, are not an Idiot either. You are just very easy to arouse for some reason. But again (I do believe I havd written this once, but let's repeat it for the sake of better understanding) let's agree to differ upon the fact that we have different opinions and come from different cultures, based on differing political etablishments, shall we?

  • Actually, I'm amused at your type. FREE??????? That statement just shows how out of touch you are with reality,but I'll pray for you and your type anyhow....................

  • And I believe it is called, not salled. Guess that "free" education there doesn't include spelling!

    Seems you're the one upset over this...I'll pray for you and your type..YOU NEED IT!!!

    salled?????? LOLOLOLOL

  • Nopes, not a thing worth shit. Just a social security system that works for everyone, a democarcy that actually works, free education for everyone, free medical care for everyone - you know, nothing worth fighting for whatsoever.

  • FREE???? unemployment upwards of 13%, taxes there are criminal!! Nothing is Free, you are a IDIOT!!LOOLOLOOLOLOOL

    God, your type make me laugh!!! thanks for the laughs!!! FREE???? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

  • Oh, we're quite safe without American invasions, there is hardly any oil here :)

  • ok mafia man, LOLOL that's true, nothing in that entire country of yours worth fighting for!!!

  • You could learn a lot from that, as could many other Americans. It is not always very meaningful to see who can shout the loudest. And thinking that war is murder and disliking semi-fascist primitive nationalism is no reason for others to be mental midgets, as you so colourfully put it. So. Let's agree to differ, eh? :) Peace, man...

  • LOLOOL, mr mafia man..tough name for a tough guy.........don't worry we;ll save your sorry country some day, like we did in 2 world wars

  • @Onethreeman: Thanks for your concearn about my mental state, it's really quite touching. What's the matter, did something I say annoy You? Guess so? Well, remember that this is just my opinion on the matter. It need not be the correct optinion according to You, but let's then agree upon the fact that we disagree, shall we? That is how we solve things like that in my home Country, (Denmark) we argue, and then we either agree og agree to disagree in respect for each others optnions

  • lololol, maybe because your home country could not fight it's way out of a paper sack! You don't annoy me, you're not that important. maybe the next time some bully country jumps on another weaker country, they should call Denmark to save them. That is unless your type is too busy whining here.

  • It's amazing that there are so many mental midgets in this world!!! To the whining cxmafia..

    "don't panic!! the WHAAAAAAUMBALNCE is on the way!!"

  • This song was written by Bruce becaused he suffered from what You Americans refer to as "a broken heart" - as has nothing to do with War - at all. It takes quite a few idiots to to this: One idiot to misunderstand the song completely the song completely, another idiot to agree with the first idiot and then put pictures of US Army Personel plus some primitive nationalist symbols for the really thick-minded. And then, it is ready to turn loose on all the other thick-minded idiots out there. Sic!

  • wow!! you are one angry child!! think about medication!!

  • rip chris never forgotten

  • isnt this a springsteen song?

  • yes..and it should never ever be redone

  • i think that chris ledoux is better at it

  • this song is so fucking awesome.. i heard it for the first time atv riding and getting wasted off rum n cokes and that was just a couple hours ago

  • lmfao

  • God bless America @ :31

  • God bless the world.

  • oorah...

    -Lcpl Haynes, USMC

  • Bull Riding ,Mickey Mouse and the United States Marine Corps, Yeah!! you made my favorite list !!!

  • rip chris. he was the man!!!!

  • Thank you Chris. "We miss you brother.

  • Nice version of the Springsteen song. It alludes to a guy trying to pick up a girl in a bar. I am not sure what all the patriotic zeal is about. I am Vet from the Vietnam era. So, don't construe this as anyway Anti American. Its kind of like Regan adopting Born in the USA as an uplifting, encouraging song. I just don't understand.

  • it just is a way of saying that the marines is the best aparantly lol idk

  • You don't know Chris' work if you don't own a few of his self produced casettes from the mid to late 70s that he personally sold at rodeos. Give a listen to a song titled "Double Diamond." It is about a ranch not ski slopes. He was great.

  • when you run down this country and proud americans your walkin on the fightin side of me

  • rest in peace Chris my favorite singer

  • If you don't love it leave it!!!! Enough said.

  • i am heading back for a 2nd tour and i believe in everything i fight for including my family and the FREEDOM OF SPEECH unfortunatley it gives some people the right to say stupid shit that shouldnt be said we fight for all of you to have what you have and so you can be at home every night with your families we dont have that luxury and if you dont like it then you are not a true american and should not be in OUR country!!!

  • God be with you my friend....

  • My brother is a Navy Medic, and he just went back for his 2nd tour, and I wory about him, and I will pry for you too. I agree with all of what you said. God bless America!!!!

  • I'm a true AMERICAN, just wanted to thank you for everything your doing! I believe in you, this country, and our troops! And everything we as a country believe in, thank you, and God bless this Country of ours, your men, and YOU! Be smart, be safe, and PLEASE, bring yourself home! Your in my prayers.

  • Godspeed on your safe return, and most important, Thank you.

  • @ghosttrofholz

    God speed my friend and THANK YOU, Its people like you and your fellow soldiers that give the idiots the right to be stupid.

  • @ghosttrofholz thank u for everything u do......GOD be with u

  • @ghosttrofholz THANK YOU for your service to our country. Watch your six and come home safe and sound.

    From an older Vet.

  • @ghosttrofholz You are brainwashed into murder. The people we are killing did not attack us and couldn't care less about us if we were not there.

    Don't tell me what you are currently fighting is for me. You want to have people believe that so you can feel right about shooting people in a country we invaded on false pretext. You are no better than the German soldiers that followed orders in WW2

  • @kingachybraky

    Then get the hell out of our country, you don't deserve the priviledge of being here.

    You're the same type of worthless pos that spit on my father and uncles coming home from Vietnam and said the same shit you're spouting when I got home from Bosnia. Freedom isn't free, and I would rather smoke a million terrorists and supporters than allow One to ever harm this country again.

  • @lostcowhand Then PLEASE START WITH YOURSELF. If you want to smoke another terrorist, go look in the mirror and have at it. This is MY COUNTRY.  If you don't like that, stay over seas next time you are deployed.

  • @kingachybraky The only comment I can possibly make to you that Might get through is this;

    I Pray that You are in whatever location that receives the next car bombing, plane hijacking, etc. Then let's hear you say we are just being mean and nosy.

  • @kingachybraky

    The US did little to nothing about Terrorism in general(no nationality or religion in particular) for years while most other countries received attack after attack. Then in '01 we got attacked ourselves and finally decided to do something about it. Now, all of a sudden the US is the bad guy. There is No Way the normal, peaceful residents of Iraq and Afghanistan would ever want to be run by these types of people, they simply don't have the means to do anything about it.

    WE DO!

  • @ghosttrofholz THANK YOU BUDDY. God bless you!

  • maybe but Springsteen singing for the war anywhere. Born in the USA is not a tribute to the wars that US. is getting in to. USA SHOULD STAY ON THEIR OWN TURF AND BE THERE. I THINK YOU GUYS HAVE YOUR OWN PROBLEMS OVER THERE SO STAY THE HELL OUTTA EUROPE OR WHAT EVER REGION YOU' RE AT. FUCK YOU!!

  • shut the fuck up you PROEU communist cunt

  • oh and go back to your personal live which consists of your ass, your dildo and your left arm. I don't like Bruce Springsteen moron and i couldn't care less for his sorry excuse of unpatriotic politics

    Go and ask for a subsidie from the EU to buy a new dildo

  • Travis tritts ersion is better

  • fanks for da info

  • Thank all of you for your support my brothers and sisters as well as myself cant thank you enough for all your prayers and grattitude we may not act like it means alot to us but deep down we're cryin.

    Sgt. Smith, Christopher W

    US Army

  • Thank you alot for your service man i really do mean that best of luck to you and your loved ones bro

  • HAAHAHAH no one is upset but you. God bless our Troops.

  • maybe someone should make another video for you bleeding heart liberals with the Springsteen song  "Born to Run", lol.

  • 'Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.'

  • Comment removed

  • Not really. The video isn't related to "war". It is in support of our military men & women, because without them we wouldn't have the freedoms we have today. Including freedom of speech. I for one don't believe in a New York minute that the terrorists will just stop & go away. I appreciate everything our service men & women have sacrificed for their country. Besides, the song 'War' was origionally sung by Edwin Starr & written by Norman Whitfield in 1969. Springsteen did a rendition. Semper Fi

  • that's correct, its hard for us to fathom what a place would be like without unalienable rights, but in my travels i have seen such places, Even if you don't agree with our troops honor the sacrifices they made to protect your bill of right including your right to speak against them without persecution.

  • freedom of what...go say it to a mum/dad who has lost their son in a war and im not writing about the worldwar1-2. here in the near future in Iraq. Send you own kid to be killed for the freedom of speech!!!

  • please have a big glass of STFU, and worry about Findland and let US keep you free. LEt us worry about our soldiers whom keep you free, PS Thanks is not necessary, but accepted.

  • Fuck you. The USA doesnt keep finland free from anything. Finland fought their wars themselves against russia and germany, so suck it. And by the way finland haven't had any wars since that so tell me what the hell we are free from.

  • this song brings a tear to my eye =)

  • Not suppose to wear the American Flag as clothes; shows disrespect. I love the song.

  • this songs amzing!

  • missing you today & forever

  • Chris Ledoux version Tougher Than The Rest of are better then The Boss himself.

  • have yo ears?

  • its a more softer sound, I dident say that the Boss are bad only that Chris Ledoux is better.

  • On March 9th I'm asking all Chris LeDoux fans to call their radio stations to request his music.

    10-02--1948-----03-09-2005

    R.I.P. Chris

  • be proud on your war nation...god bless your country, lol

  • damn proud.

  • I've seen alot of concerts and a Chris Ledoux concert is still the best I've seen. Too bad he passed so soon.

  • I was lucky enough to meet this gentleman a few years ago when I booked his concert for the club I worked for. I was never a great fan until I met him. He was absolutely the nicest country star I ever met and it was an honor to meet him. One of the band members was a little obnoxious and Chris put him in his place real quick and made him apologize. I've been a fan ever since. I got my picture made with him, which he autographed, and it's kept hanging on my wall. What a gentle-man!

  • Chris Ledoux sang this song in like 1995. It was just a remake of the original and has nothing to do with war. So shut the hell up!....rest in pease Chris

  • Yea, too bad Bruce Springsteen is a pretentious, left wing, anti-American cock muncher. Chris LeDoux is a true American.

  • hell yeah.

  • if you dont support our troops, youre more than welcome to stand in front of em! People like you make me sick

  • However Bruce would not be offended at the military being used in this song, as he unlike you does not bite the hand that feeds. As a former member of the military im proud to have helped allow you to keep the right of dissent.

  • What a GREAT PRIDE to be part of a GREAT NATION.

  • March 9th people call your local radio stations and request your favorite Chris songs as many times as possible to remeber a legend, a hero, and a friend

  • Thank you for spreading the word!! I started this a couple days ago.

    Thanks!!!!

    Donna

  • Yea i saw your post on another video and thought "That's a good idea" Thank you

  • good job on the video and thanks to all our military past, present and future

  • My dad is in the army and set to go to Afghanistan in March. This is the song we always request and dance to. Because a girls dad is the only one she can trust. And of course he's tougher then the rest! Thank you for posting it! God Bless the Troops.

  • Awesome version by LeDoux--he definitely did justice to Bruce's song :)

  • Semper Fi!!!!

  • usmc and thank u as a vet and bull rider builderko@yahoo to talk

  • alli i can say as a military member is hoorah and thank you.

  • Shadow0dancer, as a military member and a devoted Chris Ledoux fan, I want to say thank you and god bless you. It is people like you that make me proud to fight for the Red, White, and Blue. Happy New Year and may you have a wonderful and great year.

  • all i can say is hoorah
