  • This song is for anybody who has a sibling in the armed forces

  • Me and my brother are both in the service. My girlfriend told me she want a kid before I leave so she has me in some way if I don't come back. I don't see how some one could dislike this song

  • My oldest brother left for Afghanistan yesterday, this is his second deployment he has 4 kids, I pray he makes it home safe. I love you Brian come home safe and sound. Love you big brother.

  • "Greater love hath no man than this,that lay down his life for his brother" That simple verse tells you all you need to know

  • @nebraskapatriot01 its friend but sttill its very true

  • @mrenna319

    like many things such as verses, everone has a bit different way of saying it. I was just at libbing it so its not 100% correct im sure but ya still very true.

  • A guy that I have been friends with for 6 years joined the Marines... The day he left I burst into tears.... And listening to this song brings a tear to my eye... ILY J.R. See ya in 5 weeks!

  • sometimes freedom makes it hard to live

  • my cousin is in the marine core he has a wife and two children.

  • This song always makes me cry. The guy I like is going into bootcamp September 6. Man I'm going to miss him, I don't know when I'll see him again. No matter what side you are on, come home safely!

  • SUPPORT OUR TROOPS <3

    im 16, me and my brothers argue all the time, but then theres the moments where we have fun, prove we love eachother, and stand up for one another. my oldest brother is joining the Canadian forces, and he knows i love him with all my heart. i would take a bullet for any one of my brothers any day.

  • while hundreds of people mourn over the soldiers that have died, I am proud that such men and women have lived! I have friends that are in this and soon I might be(still considering)

    I miss him and always will

  • M y little brother died nov.12 2010 from cancer this still hits home

  • for people that curse so much on here, denouncing the opinions of others; dont you think there might be a better use of your words that doesnt make you sound so uneducated? And at the same time more respectful towards the troops anf family members you are attempting to stand up for? And yes AgurMontana1306, that was for you

  • Few songs bring tears to my eyes. But this one, this one gets me every single time.

  • i like this song my little brother is in the air force and he is leaving july 5th the day before i have his first nephew and i don't know how to say goodbye to him so i sent him this song it made him cry im proud of my brother god bless our troops

  • thanks to this song, i now have a tattoo that says "this is what brothers are for" such a great song

  • Hi, I'm new to commenting videos...this "was" and "is" my brother Tyler and my song :) Tyler was 19 when he joined the army...he was 21 when he deployed for Iraq in July of 2009...My brother died from a roadside bomb in South Afghanistan August 31st of 2009 and died at 21...Dammit i miss you tyler i love you

  • @cvietti23 God Bless Bro. Hang tough

  • im special forces and this reminds me of my little brother i was in iraq and one day i saw my brother get of a plane we hugged and cried 3 weeks later had to bring him home in a box no one should ever have to take home a little brother like that

  • Canadian Country at its best

  • I used "this is what brothers are for" in the toast to the groom at my brothers wedding this past winter. What a phenominal song and video, I saw Dean Brody live in concert in June. God bless all our soldiers; but lets remember there are Canadians over there as well. All said, this is probably the best tribute to all soldiers there is out there.

  • Neither of my brothers are in the military, but this song still makes me think of my brothers, I'm sure either of them would go through hell and back for me, as i would for them. Brothers are the greatest people on earth, only people you may put before them would be your own child

  • amazing song makes me cry a lil thinking bout my brother who loves far aWAY

  • Proud of all our Canadian forces in Afghanistan and all our American brothers suffering for the bullshit Iraq war for oil

  • @rugbylover100 hey Canadian guy this ant for oil look at 911 and say that my bro ant serving for oil get your facts strait

  • @rugbylover100 hey man were not fighting for oil but yes oil caused this.... and theres alotta us out here fighting for our country and there country so lay off with the negativity. ur the only person thats wrote something bad dip shit

  • I have no family in the army but I have had 17 of my good friends to the marines and 13 will never come home so my friends is that are still out there know this and I write or call them every day, and the oldest of them to not make it was 19 years old and he was my childhood he was my brother in every why except blood I am 18 years old now he died last November on the second he was coming home on the forth my birthday.

  • @the10tank oh my gosh.... thts so sad!

  • Seen ya yesterday, Dean. Great show!

  • Watchin this video is really hard for me because my boyfriend is leaving for the Marines tomorrow and I just hope and pray that God brings him back to me in my arms again.

  • My brother left for bootcamp yesterday. Hes going into the marines. It sucks so bad. But im proud of him because i know hes fulfilling his dreams. Hes been wanting to go his whole life. I cant wait for him to graduate.!

  • T_T

  • my brother died 3 weeks ago in iraq and i hadn't seen him 2 years he was 18 days before he turned 21 i'm 13 he was my best friend now hes gone

    RIP spc jacob p dohrenwend and all other fallen soldiers

  • @SuperMexicanNINJA You're post maybe be about a year ago but I just want to say... You're brother had the guts to joins just like my friends and I, Seeing people who you treat like brothers and sisters die in front of you is hard to get over. I thank your brother for sacerficing his life for his family, friends, and country.

  • @SuperMexicanNINJA

    I'm so sorry for your loss. Best wishes to you and your family.

  • I miss my brother so mch...Semper Fi

  • My brother signed on to the Marines in 2001, before 911. He left when I was in High school. He returned safetly back to us 4 years later. He was never the same, 2 tours in iraq changed him. What he faced over there, he only knows. But what we faced w/o him is just as wrong. I lost my playmate, in his stead i got back a wounded soldire. wounded in the mind & heart. He lives w/ us, & though I times I ponder why he does the things he does. I still love him, & I rather have him broken, then dead.

  • @lsmlandin awwww im srry must of been tough 

  • I left my little brother three years ago to serve a tour in Iraq,i told him i will see him again, never got to see his face after i left, he died while i was in Iraq,he really didn't want me to leave

  • this is for my bro in the marines

  • This video means the world to me. My oldest brother, left for the ARMY when i was three, and i had not seen him since then untill about Marh, he came home fo a couple of weeks and now he is home again. This song is extreamly touching. Thank you(:

  • war is stupid

    just stop

    if the government could only see its causing hatred and sorrow :/

    but they dont care

    goin to war has broken millions of families

  • @TrueEspadaUlquiorra without war, you wouldn't have the freedom to be posting things like this online. you may not even have the privilege to know what youtube is. there is no peace without war. it sucks, but its just the way it is. we live in a corrupt world, but i am proud to say that i am serving the country, and so are the milions of others in the military. we are willing to give our lives, so our families can live theirs

  • @wesania for that me and everybody in the u,s appreciate what the troops are doing

    i wish war would end and we could share the damn resources

    and still have freedom of speech

  • @TrueEspadaUlquiorra dude, i agree with you one-hundred percent. if only it were that easy. maybe someday we'll live in a world where that is possible, but until then, we have to go out and waste away the lives of millions. i understand the need to defend our country, but sometimes, it seems as though were not just defending our country. it almost feels like we are taking from other countries to try to make ours better. Enough with the damn fighting, we should all just live our lives

  • I am sorry for your loss Rose. I'm now feeling scared because my little brother (turns 15 in 4 days) is set and determined to follow in my footsteps and join the Army. It makes me so scared because I won't be there to watch out for him.

  • @lovealldogs88 thanks for surving for our country

  • Great vidoes HuskyLover!! I have to say, this video is better than the actual music video. Keep up the good work!

  • OR! we can watch it free right here

  • great song by a wonderful young Canadian thanks Dean

  • I cried when I saw this... Im a Canadian soldier, and i just got to see my sisters, and my wife and son for the first time in 5 1/2 months, and i have never seen anyone cry harder than my sisters.... God Bless to all my brothers and sisters in arms. God bless to the families.

  • This song makes me cry every time i hear it. my brother is in the Navy (WHOOP WHOOP NAVY!!!) and he's shipped out right now. We were never very close until I realized that I needed to love him cuz he could possibly not come back. Since then... it's never been the same and i miss him more then anything. I just wish i could've stopped being such a pill to him when i was little... cuz i know how much i hurt him. I'm sorry bro, and can't wait for you to be home!! <3

  • Thank you to all who have served to defended this nation and its freedom

  • this song makes me cry very time i hear it i have a 28 year old brother who was in iraq luckily he came home but still this is mine and his song. amen to all the solidiers who risk there lives for us

  • This is the reason behind my enlistment. I will be enlisting as soon as I graduate from Wayne State University, in about a semester. I want to be sure my family never has to go over there. I am going so others don't have too. And like the song says, "thats what brothers are for" 'cause in the long road, all americans are brothers and sisters right?

  • @fitsgunnahittheshan thank u for whanting and going to serve our country

    A Proud US Navy Veteran!

  • I love this song, its awesome. It reminds me of my brother when he told me that he was going to move away and he is my idol.... awesome song

  • god bless the troops

  • i can remember the day i left for the marines and said goodbye to my little brother. it was hard cause i helped to raise the boy, i can remember how hard it was to hold myself back when we came to see me on graduation day at bootcamp. when formation broken i hugged that boy and broke into tears... he was 15 when i got out of the corp and i was 23. He met me at the airport for the first time in 3 years and we hugged again and cried. i guess your never to old to miss your brother huh.

  • @moshpitmachine Never my friend he will always be your brother no matter what ..and so happy for you guys you could get together once again ! =D

  • @moshpitmachine yeah, when my brother was graduating boot camp we saw him standin out there and i started cryin when we were walkin up to him,felt like a baby for cryin but couldnt help it i missed him so much.

  • @moshpitmachine no you cant get to old to miss your brother. my bro handled it alot better then i do, hes the one in there but the first time i saw him on grad day i couldnt control myself. last time i saw him was two years ago, he might be coming this month or next though :)

  • @moshpitmachine

    you are an AMAZING individual, im glad your home safely, your brother is lucky to have you =)

  • @moshpitmachine I know how your brother feels, my oldest brother left for the army when i was 16 then my second oldest brother left when I was 17 my mom broke down and told me That'd she kick my ass if I tried to leave too but now they are both home thank god. Our bond is a lot stronger as brothers now and I'm grateful for that.

  • @moshpitmachine no one fucking cares

  • this song always gets to me cause i have two brothers who are close and another brother who isnt really close. Two lives in georgia and i miss them everytime i hear this song....

  • i love this song it has so much meaning to me espically since my older sister and brother in law are out in the marines right now fighting for our country and i worry about them everyday!

  • Very nice job! Love the song, can't get enough of it. I wish we could bring all of our soldiers home but we all know that's just not possible right now. But my prayers are with them and the families that have lost loved ones who have given their lives for their country.

  • my brother is also a marine...every family member is going to hate it just because the chance that you could not come back. but i am very proud of my brother. he is doing something very honorable and so arent you wolverine. this song is such a god song and i love it

  • i love this song as a marine myself its a great song..my lil sisters hate it that i have to go but i explain to them that its my job and i love my country and them and for that reason i have to what i can to make sure that no harm comes to them.i always promise to come home...just a note to my buddies over in iraq see you guys in a few days glad everyones coming home.. OHHH RAAAAH and Semper FI

  • Thank you a lot...God Bless you..:)

  • I love this song so much! A family member of mine is in the war and I worry about him all the time! God bless the soldiers!

  • I love this song, it always makes me cry. I have so many family members in the war right now. And my older brother is one of them. God I miss him.

  • i love this song!!! it is a true symbol of what our country is fighting for and the families that have lost loved ones in the war!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

    GOD BLESS THE SOLDIERS!!

  • you no this guy is Canadian right and hes not jsut talking about the Americans fighting

  • this is a great song god bless america and the american way of life if think america is a bad place then to hell with you the soldiers are a symbol of what most of us just wish we were brave enough to do

  • this song.. i always have conflicting emotions while listening to it. i love the song, but lately it hits just a little too close to home.

  • I have a humungous spot in my heart for soldiers! This song makes me sad, happy, confused, and absolutely amazed at the same time!

    GOD BLESS OUR SOLDIERS!

    GOOD BLESS AMERICA!

  • *God

  • wow. just wow. this song is so awesome.

  • That's why War is so "STUPID!" I would never even dream of hurting someone (much less killing them) because they didn't believe as I do! Also, isn't there enough Land in the World to go around? Of course, you got your "Bastards" who want it all for some reason that is beyond me???????????

  • oh my gosh..this song is so touching. well done on the video as well...perfect. after watching this, i called up my brother after 6 years and appologized for everything. we are good now

  • Respect Human Life? What a Joke! What about all the times "We" have pushed people out of the way to make room for "ourselves?" We escaped England to forge a new Country and proceeded to do the same Damn thing those assholes did! Power to the few and heartache to the many!

  • Canadian pride

    god bless the soldiers who have given there lifes from the Canadian army and the American army that makes are country's safe and free from terror

  • More Bulshit to make us think that "War" is good and The "United States of America" is the Big Brother to Everyone in the World; and is going to fix "Everything.!" What a Load of CRAP!

  • hey buddy, grow some balls and join the forces so you can see what its like out there. if you knew, you wouldnt be sayin shit like that. true war is bad, but its human nature. you know what the terrorists are doin? they set up base in the middle of cities so that if we try to insurge on them, civilians get cut down. my brother was killed in iraq, and he was 18. im 16, and im goin in right after him. dont you dare say shit like that without thinkin bout any soldier over there. God Bless America!

  • Sooooooo true!!! God Bless America!(:

  • GANN010355

    Besides solving Slavery,nazism, communism, genocide, and unjust tortue you correct war has never solved anything. War is not good but to believe that there are not people who want to see me die becuase I believe you have the right to be a smartass is foolish. The united states is a great place to live and if you think is is just a coincidence we always end up on the side who chooses to respect human life you do not know what you are talking about.

  • isn't this guy Canadian ?

  • yea

  • There is no draft anymore so it's the person who joins the militarys own decision. I served in 2 wars and I find it ridiculous how some people think that having some family member serving is just the most important thing in the world and nothing else in life can be placed above that. If you choose the military life by enlisting, then you have chose whats to come along with it.

  • thnak u thank u thank u

  • I've watched this video three times in a row. My older brother is in the Air Force. God be with all of our armed forces in and out of harm's way.

  • this song is so amazing and if any of yall dont like it then yall have a serious problem

  • I agree with Oblivion49ers, not knowing if your loved one is ok is so much worse than death. That happened with my cousin not but just a couple months back, it was horrible

  • this song makes me cry every time i hear it. my older brother is my best friend and i was super proud of him when he joined the air force but i cried for a month straight after he left and i cried even harder when he called to say he had got hurt and they were sending him back

  • My oldest cousin was in the Navy. He didn't dir during his duty, but on October 1st 2007, he got in an accident. He was driving a motorcycle and a dump truck cut him off, killing my cousin on impact. It hurts to hear this song, but I can't stop hearing it, on the radio and on YouTube.

  • *CRYING* This is my brothers! All 4 of them... and my husband.

    "I miss you being near!"

    I LOVE YA'LL WITH ALL MY HEART! STAY SAFE OVER THERE!

  • i cry as i listen to this song. it makes me wonder what it's going to be like when my brother and I grow up. he's planning on becoming a soldier. he's 11 right now and this is what he's wanted since he was 9. i dont know what i will do without him.

  • Thanks for posting this excellent video for an excellent song! Regardless of your politics, or views on this particular war, soldiering is about brotherhood, and most of us would die for our brothers.

  • why would you sing about your brother deing

  • his brother didn't die dumb fuck listen to the lyrics

  • I'm in the army, and i can tell you that being away from a brother in a hostile place can be just as bad as death for as long as they're gone. The family goes through hell over it. So, you're the dumb fuck you fucking idiot. Maybe some day you'll grow up and learn they're can be much worse things than death. Not knowing can be worse than death, you fucking inconsiderate prick. I'd really like to meet people like you in combat. I bet then u'd learn some fucking respect.

  • adda tell his ass bro

  • Great song!

    It makes me cry sometimes.

    God Bless You, Chris.

  • Great video! My little brother should be getting ready to finish his journey to Okinawa in about an hour or so, He's headed there on a 2 year deployment with the United States Marine Corps. From there he is requesting to be sent into Afghanistan... crazy Marines! This song hit me like a ton of bricks. My brother was home for leave and has only been gone for 2 days, but it feels like an eternity!

    Semper Fi!

  • My big brother just came home yesterday after 2 years.

    I'm a proud Air Force sister.

    I love you alex

  • Huskylover20, beautiful video!

  • my brother is in the navy and this song reminds me of our relationship..

  • Same Here.

  • Great job cried harder at those pics than I did the original video

  • I just wanted to say as an active member of the Canadian Forces on my way back to that great sandbox across the ocean this song brings me close to tears everytime i hear it, God Bless all my brothers and sisters fighting for our country around the world

  • I haven't cried in years but I cried the first time I heard this. Thank all of you for loving us enough to fight.

  • guys i appreciate u treating the US marines with respect thanks for the support pray for my best friend who was in the same marine division as me aand died

  • THIS IS A PRETTY GOOD SONG!!

  • My brother didn't go to the army, but my fiancee did. Basically, all we did was change the words "brother" to "lover"

  • Joel good luck in Iraq! Going to miss you. You have always been a great friend. Praying for you. Stay safe and thank you for serveing our country.

  • this song makes me cry pray for my cuz and every one who served or is serving

  • my older brother of 8 years is in the army and i have always wanted to go into the airborne division and now i hope i for sure want to and thanks to everyone praying for the soldiers

  • God Bless all those who keep us free!!!! Let freedom ring

  • I love this song. I cry every time I hear this song. I wish all military men and woman come back home safe and sound.

  • I cry everytime 2...

  • I don't have a brother in the army or military...I do have two younger brothers...this song makes me glad I live in this country...we don't have to go to war to live the lives we life...ps...this song makes me cry to too

  • this song really makes me cry. It reminds me of my brother and how he got out of the military to be an EMT. When he sings about his brother in a wheelchair, it reminds me of my brother losing his life in a motorcycle accident and I kept him as my idol in my heart. This song sends chills up my spine and makes me think of him. I love him for all time.

  • this song is sad

  • Nah,.... this video is for everyone who is fighting overseas.

  • this video is a good tribute to all the US soldiers overseas. sometime next year i will be joining you over there. GO ARMY NATIONAL GUARD

  • Comment removed

  • i am over seas right now... and i thank you for this video... im glad people know how much it takes to be over here
