Love this song and have it on CD. Watched this on tv and was glad to see Barry there. I am a lifelong Fanilow and have loved this man since 1973 when he started out with his first album. I was 10. He looks good here too and thanks for posting this video from PBS.
I agree with 1223eddie! God bless America, God bless our troups and their families and God bless Barry Manilow who still "Writes the songs the whole world sings" Love ya Barry ever since I was a teenager in Florida. My parents owned a record store at that time and Arista records sent us a t-shirt promoting your Mandy album. It was love at first sight and sound!! Keep up the great work Barry!
FREEDOM "Hello - this is Freedom ringing. Please stop bombing Pakistan and pull the troops from Iraq and Afghanistan. While you're at it, pull out of the other overseas military adventures your invested in, bring the troops home and THEN we can make sense of Barry's beautiful music on pimp Daddy-O's lawn. "
Nothing like seeing this song performed LIVE. I saw x-president Clinton introduce Barry at Radio City in NY (I was in 2nd row Orchestra) to sing this chilling song about America's Freedom. At the very end of the performance a gigantic American Flag drops from the ceiling as a backdrop. Crowd goes crazy!
OMG!!!!!!! Barry this is fantastic!!!!!!! gave me chills from the first note to the last. you are the best!!!!! You just have to feel VERY patriotic listening to this beautiful song. It gave me chills from the first note to the last.

The fireworks were added in post production - I was there and there were no fireworks (except from Barry's mouth of course)
