"Star Spangled Banner" By The Gaither Vocal Band

[Joycemcintyre1]

Love the srar spangled banner so beautiful. from this group.

[moogie181]

JUST BEAUTIFUL.. FOUND MYSELF HOLDING MY BREATH ON THAT LAST MAGNIFICENT CHORD. I AM SO PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN.

[moogie181]

just beautiful! this made me catch my breath till the last magnificent chord. i am so proud to be an american.

[Jazzbeu55]

Beautifully performed. I especially like the respect they showed for it. Too many performer get fancy and change the song to showcase their talent. The GVB simply sang it in traditional form, bringing their best harmonies with them.

[fantasticlove132]

Wow wow wow! I love this =) and I love Gaither... This is my favourite line up their voices just blend so well. David omg! His blessed =) guy his awesome, Marks funny and bills great

[kingkillerwolf]

orgasmic



[BarebackRider01]

Osama is dead!! U.S.A, U.S.A, U.S.A!!!

[jc4me]

[dcchicken75]

D. Phelps is unbelievable!!!!!! Guy, Mark and Bill are pretty good too.

[drparrish830]

HOOAH!! Gotta love GVB... God Bless America!

[TheRose1959]

[tirejtheyankee1994]

[WhiteLionKing10]

David's voice is proof that we're living in the end times! God saves the best for last! :)

[chellbelle43]

[PauliRandazzo]

[drako11256]

tht sounds like heaven hahahAAAAAAAAAAAA

[BBgBEB]

beautiful well done, talk about some lungs lol

[skitique78]

Wow.  That was great.

[theunknown2142]

USA!!

[thegraceofmusic]

WOW!

[thegraceofmusic]

David Phelps is the best male singer ever!

[AgaeseT01]

David Phelps arguably the best tenor alive!

[HalfAussie]

This is correct.

[Kaymikes23]

@AgaeseT01 ,lol nope deres no arguement he iis

[meyreka]

Simplesmente o MÁXIMOOOOOO

Só ñ vou dizer q é a melhor versão pq a do David no Legacy of Love tb ñ fica atrás.

Aliás, o Devid é perfeito neh

Sem palavras...

[TMD4444]

I watched a welcome home parade today for some local troops coming home after a tour in Afghanistan.

Wow, what a sight. Police sirens, fire sirens, church bells ringing, motorcycles by the hundreds.

This is getting added to my favorites right now! Thanks for posting this!

[LittleLeahEve]

I am and always will be proud to be an American. Amazingly done.

[christy1998]

i agree

[kfed3567]

Nothing better than phelps on that last chord.

[blazeoffuegon]

Except maybe the note at 0:41.

[cxvbnbm]

You have a lot to learn about harmony

[randomlylyrical]

@blazeoffuegon what was wrong with the note at 0:41? it worked well, it was a bit dissident (sp?) but it was arranged that way on purpose. We do it to a lot of our music at church.

[metanoeo1]

@randomlylyrical Absolutely nothing wrong with it. It's called modern harmony. BTW, I think the word you're looking for is dissonant.

[ChrisisBass13]

@kfed3567 nothing worse than bills weak ending on the last chord either, :(

[blondie5ft]

Hearing this almost makes me wish I were an American because as a Canadian we have no song that even remotely compares to this. As always a very touching and moving song!

[okebaram]

im sure that if you arrange the canadian anthem into a beatiful harmonized chorus and sing it with such wonderful voices, it too could sound heavenly

[MyFreedomChannel]

5***** .... Beautiful!

[ShirleyNSB]

It would be such a blessing if they would allow us to download this to play in our churches.

[twilightedward98]

I'm doing a solo on this song at school

[Raphapel]

00:41

most beautiful moment...

almost moving

[Raphapel]

Looove it

[jedadc]

Hoover4000, can you seed your DVD's on Torrent please??? Please... Thousands would very well appreciate that...

[phaidra2003]

great job

[matrix86]

This is my favorite combination of the group...however, I don't really care much for Bill Gaither as a bass. He just doesn't have that bass sound in my opinion. A better baritone I think. But either way, I LOVE this version. And as always, David Phepls is AWESOME!

[mijamz]

listen to him in Low down the Chariot, and Gentle Sheperd. I think he is a great bass.

[dsmoothy1]

My favorite version! These guys were awesome together!

[blazeoffuegon]

THE best version ever made!!

[902590]

agreed

[Cops1520]

Hard to believe that Francis Scott Key put his beautiful words to the tune of a drinking song....

[Eddy09P]

i love USA!

[somethingoranother15]

Thanks for this video, one of the best renditions, i worry for this country so much in these days but still i here this and i will never want to give up

[najithadabest]

God Bless America and my fellow American.

[armyguy1893]

My God. That is incredible.

[nemesis21h]

I'm not american, but i gotta be honest with you... no other anthem can top america's national anthem! It's the best!!!

[lalahahajkjklol]

@nemesis21h Especially when it's done right!

[yur1fan]

@nemesis21h AMEN

[mukongishtoswife]

@nemesis21h I am from Zimbabwe and I totally love the American anthem - I am crazy about it. The words and music are deep!

[boderah2959]

@nemesis21h no one else has said it, so I'm going to: On behalf of Patriotic Americans everywhere, I thank you and I agree. We are very blessed, indeed!

[hamoana4]

WOW!!!!......this is one helluva great version!!

[Calcasola]

one of the best renditions of our national anthem i have ever heard. incredible... USA

[matt43085]

wow, one of the best if not the best renditions

[ockabatuka]

only 50 comments were made at this time. this is a beutiful song and keeps the patriotism

stirred up within my heart. Just wish people

cared more about there country; and less about

a guy jumping to his death.

[pora89]

FLAWLESS

[idontmakesense]

I'm not American, but I did enjoy this video, those guys have got good voices.

[tmacer16]

This is probably the best version of the national athem i have ever heard

[ilovejosephriviera]

BREATHTAKING.

USA USA USA!!!!

[ryanv414]

nice video! could you subscribe to me

[aliekramer]

USA! USA!

Grtz. from The Netherland

[DasFeuerBrentMir]

Thank you, Alie Kramer.

That is good to hear. At least people outside of our country still care about America. God Bless! =)

[DasFeuerBrentMir]

Thank you Alie Kramer.

It feels good to hear that people still appreciate and care for the United States of America. God Bless You! :)

[YogaNate79]

I hate it when people from around the world refer to our country as "America"as seen in many posting on here. Are they refering to North America? Latin America? South America? Everyone in the Americas are Americans. And to say that the country nestled in between Canada and Mexico is "America" is just so inaccurate. The correct and official name is the United States of America, or simply put, the United States.

[pvrosie]

Is it really that confusing to you when you hear America?

If so, you prolly shouldnt have children.

[Dominick629]

@YogaNate79 Take a look at a Mexican, Canadian and American passport and you will see how silly your comment really is..

[bigjohn45176]

United we stand divided we fall

[babydrpepper123]

That was incrediable!

you guys did and incrediable job

If people in the usa would just shut up and quit being so negitive everyone would be better off.United We Stand for a free country but I dont tend to see that at all

Anyway back to my point BEAUTIFUL JOB KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

[randyjsing]

This was an incredible rendition of this great song! David Phelps is incredible..(Tenor 1)

[sakuraharunoruls]

R.I.P cousin Hunter

[Haldrid]

If only all americans remembered to be patriots first and critics second. I think its a tragedy that america is forgetting what it used to stand for... Our days are numbered, and man I am going to miss it.

[bossman380]

R.I.P. to all those who have died in the war. We will never forget you!

[bossman380]

R.I.P My fellow Bretherns. We will never forget what you have done for this GREAT COUNTRY! R.I.P. Cousin Mike. God Bless You!

[Bigkarch]

if any you guys would like this CD this is called Kennedy Center Homecoming.

[SimaZao]

Very well done, though I believe since they were singing it so powerfully they might'ave taken into consideration the sharpness of their breaths, and perhaps pulled the mic away.

Either way, beautifully done and very passionatly done as well.

[braceface384]

And the home of the brave!:D

So cúl! Greetings from Ireland/Éire.!

[fadave01]

God bless America

[leftunattended]

Yes, God has blessed America - richly. Bless God, America.

[MadCoSnareLine]

Amen. God bless both of you, too. =]

[MzSandruh]

Oh say can you see, by the dawn's early light, what so proudly we hailed, at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, o'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming. And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night, that our flag was still there.

[IloveUSA1950]

this is ...just...so great!!!!!!

[chrystalballs]

love this...

[danny2007fancy]

There are no words strong enough to qualify that performance. I'll never ear a better version!
