Making Fired Up, Ready to Go

[Anselcat1952]

The very best song of the '08 campaign. So glad I lived in Seattle as a kid in the late '50's and was and remain a Patches Pal (got a brick or three too near the statue)

The blond kid at 5:19 looks a bit like a mini Matt Cameron. :)

[edmondsm82]

Go Frank on Guitar!!! You were channeling Otis right there......

[cosmlayla]

right on.

[erma1olgia]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[sugarlime]

so much passion here

This is a fantastic and moving song. It would be awesome if it was played at the convention when Barack gets the nomination. How cool would that be!!!!! God bless Obama and the world.

[thompsonmeatdogdiane]

That man is making that guitar talk.

[joan19621962]

Hey, that's Jakey My Jakiest Jake! And some other folks I recognize. Guess what? I'm a Barack deligate at my county convention! Go Obama!

[spaceorbison]

I love what Matt Cameron (the drummer from Pearl Jam) says at the end. We really do have to show to the world that we're not really the country that we've been the last 8 years.

[hhrmurray]

I love this song. What if Obama make this his theme song? Is that possible?

[kop3789]

Fantastic piece.I feel so much better after having listen to it. Thanks much!!!

[GREYBLUE]

Very nice.

[carlasavoy]

So much fun!! My cab driver yesterday saw

the video! You are everywhere!

Barack won't be able to resist.

I love it! Your very proud sister in nyc who

voted for Mr. Obama on Tuesday, (sorry Hillary)

luv you  ~ Carla

[BergevinBrothers]

Thanks so much sister in law!. We really appreciate your comments and support. That's pretty cool that your cab driver saw our work. Not sure if you knew this, but we were asked to present the video at the Key Arena friday in Seattle to a crowd of 21,000 people. It was extremely fun!

[NoTVforMe]

Great song. I listen to it every morning and hum it all day. Great piano-driven energy, arrangement, vocals, beat, and length ... perfect for rallies ... just one request. PLEASE re-record the cheesy, 80s-Saturday-morning-sitcom/80­s-training-video guitar solo. PLEASE.

[strandwolf]

Well, how about YOU post a guitar solo for it? I think it's good, as good as the piano, percussion, bass, singing, and lyrics. Good Larry Carlton style tone and riffin'.

[susanq]

Thank You So Much!! My new anthem!!

FIRED UP!! READY TO GO!!

Hype- Michelle is a FULL TIME VP at the U of C med center. 13 of their 16 VPs make over $300k. Compared to her fellow Harvard Law grads, she's underpaid.

Also she's a board member of a company that closed a plant, laying off 153. Though this wasn't her call, it is the kind of heart wrenching dollars & cents business decision is a hallmark of capitalism. If this offends you, don't vote for Mitt either.

Even you are welcome at Obama's Church.

For real spousal muck, google:

Raising hopes is dangerous in a way -- you cut out a huge amount of work for yourself, and risk disappointment -- but lowering them, ... well, we've seen how well that's worked out, haven't we?

[TecoloteOne]

American can-do power is what I see and hear in this video!

Thanks for sharing your talent and work.

[ijarne]

One person can change the world! Your vote for Barack can mean the difference in this election and the direction we need for our country. FIRED UP AND READY TO GO!!!!

[jnunn2]

Nice work! ... Thank you for attending the Obama Unity March today!!!! This song continues to inspire people that hear it!

[FuriousCoder]

Has the Obama Campaign contacted you or been contacted about using this song in their campaign? I'm assuming they'd be allowed to use it...

[kencher1]

Thanks so much to all who participated in any way in the making of this video! It is totally awesome! Lets all keep working to grow the HOPE! What a wonderful opportunity we have to make this come to fruition! YES WE CAN! OBAMA 08

[jbuiteweg]

The sound and video is excellent, I hope to hear it connected to the campaign but even more so, I'm happy to watch inspired people perform!

[marthaharitoad]

Beautiful. Suits Obama perfectly.

[crikeyuncle]

Obama's speeches always make me have goosebumps. He is so inspirational. That is exactly what we need from our president. I'm tired of all the partisanships that has crippled Washington. Unite and lets move this country forward TOGETHER! Great song by the way. Should give it to Obama to play after his speeches.

[czmabe]

Thank you Jake & Bergevin Brothers---We're fired up!

[lanukus]

[JoeBergevin]

[Waranle]

Thank you guys for posting this video... Obama has inspired many people, even people who are not from United states of american, just like me... Vote for Obama becouse he is the true Leader and the honest candidate for president this year.
