There is a new generation from all over the South that takes its children to Stratford Hall, to the Confederate White House, to Lexington and to a hundred battlefields to see where our ancestors fought against the Northern invaders.
o-o I don't see how this is offensive to anyone. Don't overreact. Take a look at our flag and you'll see what us Virginians can do~
Carry me back to old Virginny, always and forever. Born here, raised here, and hopefully I'll die here, among the cliffs where I've spent my short fifteen years. I love Virginia, and when all my friends tell me they want to go to Cali or NY or an entirely different country... I think, screw that. This is the best place in the world.
@Arrubie Amen. I was Born in the Old DOminion, and though the car I drive is marked Tennessee, God saw fit to brand Virginina on my hear. Sic Semper Tyrannus!
Virginia is the "Mother of Presidents," as eight U.S. presidents (more than any other state) were born in Virginia: Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, W. Harrison, Tyler, Taylor, and Wilson. The nearest "competitor" is Ohio, where seven U.S. presidents were born (Grant, Hayes, Garfield, B. Harrison, McKinley, Taft, and Harding).
I am old now and it has been so very long, so many years, since I breathed the air and felt the earth beneath my feet that is the Old Dominion. First Family I am, strode the halls of Stratford held by my grandfather's hand. My eyesight fades and the tears freely flow as I remember my dear grandmother whispering her tales of Southern heroes, of family deeds and the land that was. Carry me back to old Virginny, to Marse Robert, to home, for I am tired and grey and ready to rest.
@BridgeDeckCruiser I fear the old guard is dying and no one is taking their place. Unless the old passes down the ability and power to govern this State it will soon be lost, and be overcome with the sickness that infects the rest of the North.
@ourwallaceclan In my prayers each night I follow the old order - that is 'Adoration', 'Confession', 'Thanksgiving' and 'Supplication' - and in that supplication I pray for my country, the Confederate States of America. My father's generation has past and soon shall mine and with it, I fear. the last hope for a Christian nation here on earth. Perhaps it is fitting that we read and hear so much of the "end of the world", for I can only conceive of a free South or Christ's return in hope.
People of color from/in the South often have a deep affection for it. There is history (bad and good) and investment that is intricately intertwined. Even the sorrow, pain and struggle create a bond. But slavery was evil! EVIL. The song is post bellum satirical blackface minstrelsy, written by a college educated NYC black man who never set foot in Virginia. Less Northerners feel smug, he lived in exile in London because of insufferable racism he experienced in the North.
The spineless CSA like this crap! The REAL ANTHEM of VA is Psalm 100 (Geneva) -- first sung at Jamestown & then all over for 200 years as the STATE ANTHEM! ;)
Huzza for the 7th MO VOL CAV (USA)!
"The UNION FOREVER....God Save The USA!", Robert E. Traitor Lee's LOYAL FATHER! ;)
@Jurassic0Al Psalm 100 was George Washington's favourite hymn, most Protestant Christians now know it as the "Doxology" sung at the Offering during Divine Worship. On the other hand, most Virginians don't know the state song -- but that is also sadly true for the citizens of the other States of the Union, in regard to their state songs.
@USAsoldier1955- Even if it was favored by at least one prominent Virginian, being a Christian hymn it's appropriateness for status as a state song is limited. What about the Jews, Muslims, Mormons, and so on who live in Virginia? Psalm 100 is known and appeals to some, but "Carry Me Back To Old Virginia" is a song that can be favored by all Virginia citizens.
@Jurassic0Al Sorry, your attempt to co-opt in the name of "minority rights" has already proven failed, courtesy of the NAACP in regard to "Carry Me Back To Old Virginny"! ;)
Old Psalm 100, Geneva, certainly appeals to Christians & Jews -- others will simply have to grin and bear it! :)
@USAsoldier1955- Excuse me? Are you making some petty attempt at mocking or insulting me? Because this wonderful little chat could turn far less civil in a hurry.
I will honestly tell you that I don't give two shits about the NAACP. I really don't. But there is a politically correct, perfectly good rewritten version of "Carry Me Back To Old Virginia" that even the most loud-mouthed of NAACP lawyers couldn't complain about. Why Virginia legislature chose to shoot it down, I don't know.
@USAsoldier1955- The others will simply have to 'grin and bear it'.... no thanks, Bubba. We Virginians like a better deal than a bunch of half-baked bullshit. Which is all your idea presents us with. Do please shut up and go away. Talking with you has not only ceased being interesting, it has ceased being pleasant as well.
@USAsoldier1955- Ooh, I'm impressed. Stupid troll. You won't get any angry response from me. You're trying to bait me. And what's this I found on your channel, Reverend? "On this Christian channel no foul or obscene language or subject matter is permitted, and only Friends may comment."
Double standards must rock your motherfucking world, Reverend Mullen. You're not a Christian. You're not a Virginian. I'll bet you're even lying about being a Reverend. Filthy liar.
Jurassic0AI said -- "OOOh you hurt my feelings, you stupid toll! How did you know I'm not a Virginian at VMI, but I have fully LOADED poopy diapers! You won't make me mad, I'm a gay Elmer Fudd. As a VMI cadet, I use double standards, so I cuss at people who thwart my retardation!"
It's obvious, my pathetic little Ant-Christian Filthy Liar Troll Fag Phony Virginian -- that you are well on your way down the toilet! What a sad turd you are, as upperclassmen abuse you! ;)
@USAsoldier1955- What is this shit? You're not even making the vaguest of efforts to make sense anymore. Too bad. There used to be a certain standard among trolls on the internet, but as you continue to show trolls these days get dumber by the minute.
@USAsoldier1955- Just tell me, "Reverend/Friar" because I'm curious- how long did you spend making up all that bullshit you have on your page? You claim to be a Christian man, one who shuns profanity. Yet you curse like the worst of sailors. You claim to be a Reverend, yet if you are you're clearly in league with Fred Phelps. And on top of your big, holier-than-thou image here on YT, you claim to have served in the Marine Corps. Care to lie a little more?
@Jurassic0Al ROFLOL! So you aren't even at VMI? You are actually a 12 year old street prostitute in San Paolo, who hates America & Christianity?! Wow, you had ME fooled! I thought you were simply another redneck trailer trash slut-troll who wanted to vent her spleen on YT, and make Virginia look bad! So your REAL name is Old Vaginy? I think you're disgusting, but I must admire your excremental stupidity! ;)
@USAsoldier1955- I have neither confirmed nor denied my presence at or involvement with any educational institution. Believe me, stalkers like you were prominent in my mind when I planned out my establishment of a YouTube account. Attempting to learn about my personal life will not gain much in the way of results. And who says the stuff I say or wrote on my page about who I am is even true? Maybe it's all a false identity to protect my real one. Maybe I went to Dukie's, "Reverend".
So you admit you are a foul-mouthed phony stalking troll son of Fred Phelps -- and a queer Dukie drop-out/VMI wannabe? I did hear that Phelps had a retarded queer son who claimed to be "ramrodded" at VMI by upperclassmen. What a life of fecal adventure you must live! And with other clowns! ;)
Now you do constantly mention, "BS", and I agree that you are one of the world's leading BS experts, young rammed-rod. How you manage the time, given your heavy homosexual obligations to the VMI upperclassmen is truly a wonder to behold! ;)
For several years I lived in southwestern Virginia. It is different from the rest of the state. Instead of leaving, I wish sometimes I had moved east a bit. Sic Semper Tyrannis says it all!
@nascarchevy24- We ought to make it that again. There was a new version proposed a few years back that was perfectly fine- even politically correct, too- and there is no reason why we should be looking for a new state song when we've already got one.
Well right now Virginia currently has no state song. While "Carry Me Back to Old Virginny" is the defacto and commonly accepted state song, the spinless state government does not recognize it as such and some others are substituted like "Oh Shenandoah".
A shame really. It's a piece of history. I noticed this version doesn't contain all the lyrics. Do you know of a version that is this quality that does?
Not to my knowledge. Im not sure entirely for here on youtube. As for CD's from bands, I don't think there is one, but I could be wrong, as I've not seen a lot for or against.
@CSAMilitia political correctness at its finest it sucks. just like trying to change all the schools named after george washington because he owned slaves
