[TheAmanda10187]

This is a good tribute to families with soldiers and soldiers so anyone who dislikes it is not a true american or good person at all

[BigDogTrist]

[rover6x01]

these things REALLY DID HAPPEN......... the heartbreak so many families suffered, shame on any evil entity who could press the dislike, I say entity because humans are compassionate

[rover6x01]

anyone who dislikes this video must be a demon from hell with no consience or heart

[xHellsWrathx]

[lifeisbeautifulbysix]

Growing up I always wanted to be a airborn soldier well now I'm 20 days away from basic in fort benning georgia

[PoliceLog]

This makes me proud to be american, for some reason. I'm a 15 year old kid who was introduced to this yesterday by my dad, when he gets home, I'll thank him for showing me this!

[shane1016396]

@PoliceLog Heard this song quite awile ago. It makes me proud to call my father a veteran. Im glad that you appreciate this. Many kids dont understand how big the military is for some people.

[patrick126987]

37 people have no heart

[Whopperspigsales]

We get up to this song every day in Afganistan. Amen In USA

[shorty567816]

@Whopperspigsales yeah and you also sing barbie girl and make wiedo videos that are funny as Hell !

[exibitions]

This song brings a little tear to my eye every time I hear it. I used to listen to it all the time when I was a kid, and it still manages to give me goose bumps.

[RAZOR2177]

[awakedead0]

[aslynnhoney]

I love this song so much.

[dw1985]

[SuperAsshole1]

music is for a easier way of saying life stories good or bad

[MrSmooth13100]

Dear Youtube, I believe there is a problem with this video.. there is a dislike button on this video. Fix that and take it off please! Thanks.

[MagicStikk]

@MrSmooth13100 I think youtube is broken.I don't think they meant to put it there.

[veteranscomefirst]

@MrSmooth13100 they put it there so the people with hand held computers can flip them upside down and like again

[22bluepunk]

music should always tell a story

[TommyDees86]

why does this not have like a trillion likes.......

[cfletch1992]

great song



[Charbakshi]

why would somebody dislike this patriotic song?

[Masshification]

god this song brings me to my knees every time :) it reminds me of my grandpa for some reason <3

[TheMichael2198]

rip my friend i wont forget you

[TheMichael2198]

i miss my friend he died in the war

[BCARLSON934]

Doesn't matter if its a made up song its saying he loves his country and the men and women in the service sacrificing there lives for us.

[gunner5050]

Great song! Thanks to all our men and women in uniform and for all those Vietnam Veterans, welcome home! We love you all and God bless you!

[MrWadejacob]

[hon3yb4dg3r]

more people should know this song 450k views isnt near enough

[kharperci]

I love this song.

[theconcertgiver]

This song was one of the first country songs I heard. It's what got me into country.

[deopa10]

Found what

[MissinThe90s]

I found it!!

[nwojunkie]

i keep listening to this and keep expecting him to say Q102.

[Scifiguy177]

This song always makes me cry, reminds me that I'm human

[rodeogirlkrb]

country singers have enough pride to sing about how they feel or what they have been thinking about so I LOVE COUNTRY AND THIS SONG

[charjaime]

To The Moon Daddy...

[UberToober]

Can someone answer this question?

Is this actual country, or is it the putrid crap that's around now considered country?

I hate all the "country" stuff that's played now but I absolutely love this song.

[Jprime777]

@UberToober Country, like any genre, has a wide variety of sounds. Rise Against and Green Day are both considered punk rock by many, despite having very different sounds. I know how you feel though. I generally don't like Rap, but there are a handful of great rap songs that I think are amazing.

[thundergod91]

@UberToober its country dumbass and it really happend to him

[UberToober]

@thundergod91 No shit that what people call it dumbass. This sounds nothing like the horseshit that's around today.

Don't know what the hell you are talking about. I never stated anything about what happened to anyone, stupid.

[ThunderChicken90]

@thundergod91 Its funny that you would call someone dumbass and then say this really happened to him. He didnt even write the song, and it didnt happen to the writers neither, Its a made up story, compiled from a few stories they had heard or read.

[KendraRector]

@ThunderChicken90 I wonder why you felt the need to try to ruin the idea of the song rather than just allowing others to enjoy it....

[ThunderChicken90]

@KendraRector I wonder why you're an idiot. What gives you the impression I wanted to ruin the idea. I love this song, thats why I was listening to it in the first place. I just wanted him to know he was wrong, just like you are.

[Mimibaby124]

@UberToober this Song is at least 10 years old because i remember hearing it when i was little... So no it's not the new 'country' if thats what these idiots want to call it

[acraft20]

I agree with knash97

[JuggaletteTittZZ]

34 People dont have hearts

[wyattahay]

@JuggaletteTittZZ Now 36.. You AMERICANS that dont like this get the hell out of this country.. THis song is mainly about a soldier that gave his life for you to be free to be MORONS!!

[Whopperspigsales]

@JuggaletteTittZZ 36 actully

[lokpikr999]

Damn the redhead at 2:37 is cute

[MrNolanmoser9109]

guys if you like this song please check out "last letter home" by thom shepard on amazon thom wrote this song and last letter home is the prequel to this song

[letsgoIU]

god bless the american soldier

[christalleigh11875]

I love this song, i believe my father has played with him... Danny Dodson yep the best steel player i have ever heard :)

[dakota24ful]

Its so sad check out phantom 309

[MrTarvinn]

been listenin to this since i was 5

now im 15 and still listening.. sick song

[thaugh09]

hell ya love this song

[jqfuzzyface21]

They need to play the good old country songs more. Every time I listen to this song it brings a tear to my eyes. Now a days everyone is so concerned about the new song coming out. Well they need to stop and go back in time and start replaying some of the best song ever made instead of putting the over kill on the new songs that come out with u hear 15 times in a hour

[crystalreeves1121]

@jqfuzzyface21 I agree with you on this you never hear any of the older songs anymore its all about the new artist and whats new

[robertallenfutch]

god bless our veteran and solders

[jkrock2012]

i used to have a 66 corvette but then i took an arrow to the knee

[pokemondj100]

these video and song rocks

[Brmobrad]

34 people pulled the cover off and what she called a chevy was a rusted out chevette lol

[marineforcerecon1775]

This song is the only thing that is better than a good older country song a good touching older country song.

[Fairygirl7023]

@Metroidkalib Yeah me to,but in a good way,because i realized he didn't leave him there.my dad is retired army...so this song and that particular verse has always touched me...

[kyuubiand9]

this is 1 of the best songs ive ever heard my friend brought it up on our way to mackinaw i don't like country but this song is a huge exception

[anthonyalvetro]

great song. brings tears to my eyes everytime

[Metroidkalib]

I love this song... It always brings tears to my eyes and I knwo the entire song by hear

[Fairygirl7023]

I've listened to this for as long as i can remember...the final verse brought me to tears. i was seven when i finally understood it,he really was riding with private andrew malone and pulled him out of the wreckage because a soldier never leaves a fallen comrade...why don't they play it anymore i requested it to local country station on my birthday in july and they said they would play it and never did...so i grabbed a cd put it in my computer and listened to it myself...

[orangechicken210]

I have always loved this song. I remember listening to it on my old mp3 player in the car :) it was one of my 10 songs and it was the only one that I ever listened to.

[balazes2001]

Always loved this song since it came out

[lancerfan35]

i have an army guy named andrew malone hanging on my rear view mirror in my car just incase :)

[jevansxc]

This is easily one of the best SONGS ever written !

how dare you dislike this song.

And it should be played on the radio more

[Smurftasticness]

34 people can kiss my ass! this is a great song!

[NicoleTreanor98]

Note:

1966

My name is private Andrew Malone, if your reading this then I didn’t make it home, but for every dream that’s shattered another one comes true, this car was once a dream of mine now it belongs to you, though you may take her and make her your own you’ll always be riding with private Malone.

Private A. Malone

[Nhrly]

I've loved this song since I first heard it on the radio so many years ago. I wish the radio stations would play it more often, this is true country music... Not singing about getting drunk and filling up your Red SOLO Cup...

[iShipFaberry]

I haven't heard this song in years. Brings back memories. <3

[1989rdl]

God bless our Veterans. 

[veteranscomefirst]

@1989rdl the veterans are the most imporant thing hin life

[4evercountrycowgirl]

This has always been one of my favorite songs<3

Goes to show that soldiers never die

[spartanzack300]

34 people dont have a fucking clue what a true american is

[willcamp009]

@spartanza

[belhemoth]

Hey I didn't realize this guy was actually somewhat famous? I work at a hotel and he stays here every once in a while.. I decided to look up some of his music. He's actually pretty good.

[willcamp009]

@belhemoth he is good

[breezerfaland]

i love this song so much! it is all time absolute favorite since i was like 8! but what i can say is that the video isnt as good as i thought! i would rather see more of pvt malone and him pulling him out of the car, i really didnt wanna see david playing the guitar and singing, smh

[TheJslick1]

@breezerfaland  same here i just remembered the name

[catiecutie26]

when a song tells a good story and makes you feel something you know its good.

[tundra1780]

Great song! I bought a hoyt cybertec bow from a man whose son passed away in the war. The bow was his and his father was finally able to let it go and I have been hunting whitetails with great success ever since. Me and my friends always say I am hunting with private andrew malone.

[littleverticz]

I love this song!!!! It's very sad though but amazing and for it to be based on a true event?!?! I believe that that could really happen and this song will never get old it brings a tear to my eye every time

[DMcCoy88]

this dose bring tears to the eyes, but its true.

[GraingerProductions]

Boy he can sing. This son was definately under appreciated when it came out and should still be played now in my opinion

[99turbosaab]

There is something wrong with this video, for some reason the is a dislike option under it... hopefully youtube with fix this error soon. Amazing song, amazing video

[kewtiepie97]

i love this song SO much... im riding with Private Andrew Malone again, thx 2 this vid...

[sesshylover24]

this is a very unapriciated song they never play it on the radio anymore and it wasnt plaed often when it was its such a beautiful song and i love it so much!

[rolandrebecca1]

love this song.

[crazyhorse1369]

33 people must not be riding with pvt malone

[sesshe]

is something wrong with the sound on this video?

[lildj2583]

i could play this song back to back and i could never get tired of hearing this song. i would have to say its my number 1 favorite song. 33 people need to get their head checked for not liking this song.

[mcooke47]

My all time favorite country song. :)

[prosim85]

Very heartwarming song. Brings tears to my eyes though. David Ball is a great singer.

[Mantech315]

this was the 1st country song i ever remember listening to. I love it.

[dylanr12player]

OMG.! Cletus T. Judd ripped this song off 2. If you're this bad to rip off songs like this you need to quit.USA!

[awsomenis56]

this song is so sad <3 !!!!!!!!!

[veteranscomefirst]

A soldier died in the field of battle and came up to the gates of heaven, where he met God. He said to God," Lord, I know I did many things i ain't proud of, and many more that you won't approve of, so if you send me to hell, I won't argue." God stood there for a moment, and then turned to the gatekeeper of heaven. "Let him in", he said.? The gatekeeper, confused, asked why. God looked down at the soldier and said," This man just came from hell." rip James Richard Luckey from vietnam

[MomsBoyTheLeafFan]

R.I.P DAD! 

[gree479]

stand @MomsBoyTheLeafFan your dad may have fallen but he will NEVER be forgotten,stand tall,stand pround young man and your dad will live forever and all soldiers will stand with you. [im ex irish army,my brother]

[TexasCenaGurl]

I love this song. I remember hearing it when I was a kid. I'm 22 now and I've lost family that was in military 3 cousins. So Thank you to all the men and women who keep the USA safe. My god bless you and you're families.

[edro31111]

Best of luck and Godspeed to you. OOhrah!!!

[wooitsgaby]

Great song

[iDougherty24]

I get cold chills when i listen to this...

[alwayshisgirl815]

Died a little of shock Adrew Ball OMG! I think us brits should send all our bad pop singers over if this is what happens.... 815 all the way

[fatkinson2011]

I sang this song at karoake one night. No one paid much attention until I got to the part about the note. Then I had their complete attention.

I'm not much of a singer, but there was plenty of applause. I'm sure it was for the story and not for my singing.

God bless our veterans and God bless America.

[countryboy6863]

30 ppl need to get thier head outve their asses. this songs been out for a long time and i personally dont think its played enough and is a good tribute to those who serve to keep this country free. how dare ppl dislike this

[crystalreeves1121]

@countryboy6863 you are right it is not played enough and for ppl to dislike this song is wrong if it wasnt for our soliders we would not live in a country were its free they need to play more songs like this all days not just the fourth of july

[harleyluvrable]

tHIS SONG ALWAYS MMAKES ME THINK OF THE VEITNAM WAR WHERE SO MANY, MANY SLDIERS DIDN'T MAKE IT HOME. THAT WAS A WAR OF LIES IF YOU KNOW YOUR HISTORY. SAD AND REPULSIVE IS THE REAL WORDS. THIS IS TO ALL THOSE SOLDIERS WHO DD AND DIDN'T MAKE IT HOME.

[12Sady]

God bless you for your courage, pray you stay safe maxey83112 and make it home to read your own letter.

[otcstudent92]

30 people are riding with inmate jerome

[brycepatties]

@herrfizzle i don't think you get the point of the song. It is really about the connection that all Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines have, regardless of service or when they served. the details aren't important, like how much he paid for the car. that connection, and that "for every dream that's shattered, another one comes true" are the important things to take away from this song.

[USAisthebestGoUSA]

Bary294 I am one of the 8% and proud of it. God bless the USA.

[mhaggerty7]

this song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it

[Squeege85]

@mhaggerty7 Same here my friend.

[jevansxc]

@mhaggerty7  me toooo

[TheFarrah99]

rileyjr16 Thank you for what you said... It made my heart smile.

[hunterv41]

then he went & wrecked the damn thing

[bary294]

You say Lady Gaga, I say Lady Antebellum

You say Jason Derulo, I say Jason Aldean

You say T-Pain, I say T-Swift

You say Ke$ha, I say Kenny

You say Pitbull, I say Paisley

You say Justin Bieber, I say Justin Moore and go grow a pair

92% of teenagers have turned to Hip Hop and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 3 videos. Stop being an idiot and start listening to real music!!! COUNTRY

[madeforfun101]

@bary294 yeah I know what your saying but you have to admit that there are some good rock songs

[adamp7860]

i respect people that r fighting for us to keep r lives

[lexilabella]

this song is so sad - every time i hear it i cant sing along for long because it makes me think about all of the people who fought for us

[EquestriaDJ]

This song is too under appreciated. It needs more views and a rock cover.

[Kateeh04]

@EquestriaDJ Very under appreciated. I agree.

[CabooseO1]

this shows that even though they fight and die across the seas they will keep watching us even in death

[theXiowanX12]

fav song of all time

[danielleradloff999]

this u was my favorite song since i was three

[SlentN1nja98]

@superspinabifida thanks for serving! I recently read a book/journal of a guy that served in Vietnam too... It his name on fronttl cover was patrick flaherty and at the top it said my name is america in the middle of the cover it had a picture of the guy... He served in like Khe something but I really recommend reading it its really good... I'm not really into books but this one I actually took home and read because it was so good... I strongly recommend it

[saddleseat12345]

AK47 in your face. That was pretty funny. But most of all, I remember the time that all three of us watched Taken together! I love that movie and miss you guys every time I see it.

[saddleseat12345]

RIP Uncle Chris and Stephanie. I miss you guys more than anything. Uncle Chris, you showed me how to shoot and fight. Stephanie, you married Uncle Chris a few years before you guys deployed and didn't make it home. Mom never liked him because he was in the military. I love you guys and really do miss you. I have survived things that I wouldn't have survived without you. Stephanie, I remember sneaking out to go babysit when we were grounded! It was fun. Uncle Chris, I remember almost shooting an

[SuperSpinabifida]

Served 2 yrs in a recon marine unit in vietnam. Its hard for someone else who has never endured combat, to relate and understand the smell, noise and quiet of

combat operations. You love your fellow marines but you always miss the world.

[Hawksmist]

@SuperSpinabifida I was Platoon Commander in Desert Storm, I was a Brit officer, and worked alot with Marines :)

[redneck38spl]

one of my grampas was a army major in ww2 the other was capitan of the uss canbera my dad was a staff sargent in veitnam and im a army cadet and movng up to marine next year

[jennmarshall16]

This song never goes out of style. I still get choked up and say a prayer for my soldiers.

[devore504]

I like this song but as a kid the video freaked me out
