THE BATTLE CRY OF FREEDOM - Tom Roush

[BaronGrackle]

This is the best rendition of "Battle Cry of Freedom" I've heard on the internet.

[PriestChristopher]

Wonderful. Union forever. This from an ex-Confederate :)

[Lumotaku]

i love your work and i agree with irish too Your versions of these songs are some of the best ever.

Hello, Tom-san,

I found that this song resembled a folk song called Japanese 'Sei ippai ' which means 'To the best of one's ability ' recently. It is because a melody resembles closely very much. That singer's name is 'Ryo Kagawa'. It is slow tempo compared with the original song. But I was very moved with this song in which something sad is included. But I like both songs.

I really enjoy these civil war music videos of Tom Roush. This is my favorite civil war song.  Thanks. I have visited many battlefields including Gettysburg and Antietam.

[homousios]

[MsDogben]

Your heartful rendition of this, my favorite civil war song, brought tears to my eyes! Beautiful!

down with the traitors??... hmmm, maybe they refer to the people that are allowing the illegal hispanics to take over this country....

[MusicOfTomRoush]

@irish89055 You'll get no argument from me on that one.

[TsumeBeta038]

@irish89055 most likely...LAWLS!!!!!!!

[irish89055]

@TsumeBeta038 both political parties are in on running this country into the ground.. President Obama was in my county recently ( here in Richmond, Va , by the way) talking about jobs for the contruction trades.. yet all around this area many thousands of illegals hold jobs in contruction and other trades.... Australia is looking better all them ....

[TsumeBeta038]

@irish89055 i know right lol its fucking rediculus

[TsumeBeta038]

@irish89055 very true lol which is why its so damn funny lol

[MrTThorne93]

@irish89055 Hispanics are just as white as you mick . Lucky we didn't deport your lazy asses from ellis .

[irish89055]

@MrTThorne93 nothing to due with color or legal immigration but the INJUSTICE of letting illegal immigrants flood into a country in violation of the LAW, as othes wait THEIR turn in line. Also, the rampant use of ESPANOL on everything (the hell with NATFA and where is the French these days hmmm?) Legal immigrants must learn English and obey the law. Some of my Irish immigrant ancestors rode on coffin ships to get here, couldn't just walk in... comprendo, estupido..?

[MrTThorne93]

@irish89055 Sure it is you racist hick . And NAFTA french is used in the province of Quebec in honor of their customs . With NAFTA the NAU will form and AMerica will be strong . Shut the fuck up you mick pot licker . Why should i care for the infection of Arizona or New Mexico places that before our Northern Army liberated were mexicain territory

[irish89055]

@MrTThorne93 hey, dufus, I know why French is or WAS, on many instructions/labels. It doesn't seem to be included much now. Ok, loser, I'm an American, and live in the old capitol of the confederacy, why don't you bring your junky ass down/over here and I'll be glad to discuss this in person... me thinks you don't have the balls..

[MrTThorne93]

@irish89055 the fact you can't speak english means i already win ina fight agianst you hicks . don't worry in 4 years we are buidling a statue of Grant in richmond and a Statue of Saint.Sherman in Atlanata and charleston for saving the republic from you traitors . Also you are born of southern blood you only exist to searve as my slave

[irish89055]

@MrTThorne93 well, well, thorne, here's one last bitch slap across your face... first, i don't like when posters keep an argument going on a video, but new youtube changes keep me from seeing where you're from or posting to your page. Punk, my parents are from NYC and though having lived in VA for over 40 years, consider this the best version, not the confederate one , as they were traitors to the Union. Can you say General GeorgeThomas? Now... Shut the F.. up.

[MrTThorne93]

@irish89055 Good they should be crufcified after your mother is raped for the Glory of Christ our Lord and savior who gave his life's blood to cemet the union as the children of god our lord and sacior . the Confederate Battle Cry is a racist offensive pieace and should be burned from thsi earth by the Federal goverment . New york city is full of Niggers and chinks and should such be burned

[MusicOfTomRoush]

[fredofasgarnia]

I've never heard a rendition to match this! It's almost a cross between a lament and an inspirational march.Thank you for recording and uploading!

[Infantry9]
