I have seen this clip 100 times I reckon, and I still love it. I'm an Aussie, pround of my county too but how great to see these young people so enthusiastcally embrace the national spirit and pride that is so infectious in Semper Fidelis. Thanks for posting it...just wish I had been to celebrate with you. TS
This song is dedicated to Tom Cruises' character in the movie TAPS because he was a total bad ass and fought to the death for the ideals against the status quo!
This song reminds me of and is dedicated to my uncle, Donald Chube (drummer),who played in the Capitol High School Marching Band and in every parade this band would play this song. Today, I asked my uncle the name of this song and he told me. I ran upstair and immediately found it and has been playing for a couple of hours now. My uncle left high school and became a Marine (high rank) and fought in Nam. That was over 30 years ago and I still love and admire the Marines! Thanks
im in my school Marching Band we r the Mighty New Philadelphia Marching Quaker Band and i play the Marching Baritone and this is the easiest and fuinnest march around go QUAKERS BEAT DOVER!!!!!
Thank you for posting these!!! The CBS special was so lame, they barely showed any of the orchestra/choir at all. I was so incredibly disappointed since I was actually in the choir. :(
Thank you for all these videos of the chorus. I sang in this chorus and have had a hard time finding out when the CBS Special of that weekend's celebrations is going to be aired. So it's GREAT to see all these videos. Now I can share them with the rest of the chorus and family and friends! Ironic, though, if the cameraman had pulled back a little bit more, my chorus would have come into frame at the bottom of the screen! Missed it by THAT MUCH!!
one person hates blue sweaters!

What this has to do with the Army, I do not know. This is a march composed by a Marine, for the Marines.

1rstrombone: what are you talking about? This is one of the easiest marches around. Still, it does show that sometimes less is more.
