Now is the time to remember, to realize, that those who die in support of their nation, either, soldier, enemy or victim, do so with the express intent of securing peace for all nations, and it is this effort that the living hold the soul responsibility to actively achieve, through the strength, unity and peaceful change offered by the dawn of this precious tomorrow so costly secured . . .

BL*M

[slouchbitch]

zloop no they didnt ask foe this but all the same this song is indeed respect to those that dont deserve to die but choose to defend for what they believe is right at the time even though as a whole the war was unjust!! but thanks to joe monto we believe in you!!!

[IvoriAngel]

I absolutely love this song. Your vocals are so powerful and your guitar skills are amazing. You are the whole package Joe, inside and out. God truly blessed you with the talents you have, and it is so wonderful to see you use them from HIS glory!

[montomaniac]

thank you Angel!! you guys are very precious to me!!

[inspiredbykelly]

hey is there any way u can send me the chords so i can sing this at my family and friend performance for 4th of july?

[CharityAngel]

I Love the song, your vocals, and I don't think that there is anything greater that can be given then what the soldiers give us. This war is not pretty, but it is necessary, and if we withdraw, we will find that out the hard way.

[zloop]

I do respect this song and the soldiers who are doing what they think is the best,,, but this war is a mistake and I think it's tragic both for the US loss but mostly for the civilians in Iraq,,,they didn't ask for any of this,,remember US invaded them without actually any reason,,so the next song you write,,may it be for peace in Iraq,,"sometimes the US patriotism disgust me"

[xfire1prod]

I can respect your comment except the part where you said this:

"sometimes the US patriotism disgust me" does this mean you easily "QUIT"?

but in the larger scheme of things

[xfire1prod]

...zloop ...dont think you see the whole picture

[guitmartiman]

Really powerful! Thanks, Joe!

[Matchgurl]

This song actually brought tears to my eyes.

To someone who has lost someone in this forsaken war it's a heartwarming song.

Thank you for such a great song.

You're now a favorite.

-Rachel-

[music4ever55]

my brother was in the war and my moms friend?

[montomaniac]

Hi music4ever55, thank God for your brother and your mom's friend.

[PandaBear4691]

nice lyrics. nice song. nice voice. good job mayuuun. =]

[ekahefe]

Beautiful!

[adambenli]

3600+ coalition troops killed seems like a drop in the ocean compared to the 100000+ civilians dead. The invasion was supposed to help liberate and protect the 'Iraqi people' and help make the world a 'safer place'.

My respects go to all those that have suffered from our governments total disrespect for humanity.

3401 US, 148 UK, 33 ITALY, 20 POLAND, 18 UKRAINE, 16 BULGARIA, 11 SPAIN, 0-150000 IRAQI (nobody cares to count)

[devildoug216]

ignorance will get you killed. if you would read a little closer or maybe if you were there you would realize that most of those are not civilians. We dont know who the bad guy is anymore, we could be in a convoy and stop to help a little old lady that tripped and fell but was paid by the insurgents by slowing us down enough to attack us.

[devildoug216]

they train their children to shoot at us, and to spy on us. civilians being killed is inevidable, and most of the civilians killed are by the insurgents. read a little closer you will see that IEDs and VBIEDs kill more civilians than they do our troops.

[rkallay]

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to hear your wonderful song ! Thanks for honoring our soldiers ! R

[edgemontkodi]

Nice voice ..... my only comment is to glouriousarmy please think about going to war for an illegal war. Iraq has nothing to do with your freedom or anyones freedom. It's about oil, money, and haliburton. It's almost like your singing to praise about sacrificing yourself for the rich, the oil people and haliburton. You do have a nice voice though

[gloriausarmy]

I'm going to iraq for my first tour as soon as i turn 18. this video really means alot to our troops thanks man you shoul go see if you can tour with shinedown or someother band when they go to iraq. bu thanks again for the video is has alot of meaning for our service men and wemon. thanks.

[hawaiianchik2]

My husband is currently in Iraq on his 2nd tour...he has been gone for 8 months so far. This song touched my heart in so many ways. Thank you so much for writing it. It is nice to know that people do observe that it isn't only military service members that sacrifice...but families too. Thanks again and VERY great voice and talent for writing songs. Don't stop! Let me know when and where I can buy your CD. :)

[XXX250788XXX]

seriously man!. you are amazing!..

And you do need to make a c.d!.... seriously! and this one better be on it!..

[mprater0117]

Nicely Done. I like your positive messages that you convey in your songs. Maybe I could get a couple of lessons. I still like Eyes to See. What is up with AI submit?

[dolphring]

thanks my brother and cousin are in the army and in iraq right now and it really means a lot 2 know that people care about all of the soldiers because it's not mentoined much in society anymore every night i pray and hope they will be ok and for all other soldiers please join me please pray for the troops

[montomaniac]
