Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive - Johnny Mercer - Family Video

[NETSY296]

Absolutely ghastly and insulting to Mercer and just about everyone intelligent in the world (viz: not America). Good grief.

[kgs42]

Very charming .... lots of pictures of nice people ...... and the music says it I guess!

[joeasher8]

That was a wonderful video to watch.....what a great close family you are...I really enjoyed the video and the song...thanks so much for your time and effort to put this together....

this version was used in "L.A. Confidential," great version! have to say a positive outlook is worth more than anyone can imagine. a positive, hopeful outlook carried so many people all over the world through the depression and WWII

[thelifeuwant]

OMG this song is so great :D :D :D !!!!!!

[StonewallJackson26]

I love this song.

[Sonicmountain09]

Great voice.

[gillafunk]

I like the version that was was in Bugsy (Warren Beatty). The tone of the main singer is awesome, and the background vocals were stellar

[OShaughnessyk]

Wonderful family video--like my family, too!

[Amorisey2010]

I heard this song in the film "L.A. Confidential" and have loved it ever sense! I love the message, the way it starts so dark and turns all happy is just awesome... great stuff!!!

[Daniaboot]

Heavy, Johnny, heavy!

[janicesoprano]

This reminds me of my life on Arthur Street in West Hempstead in the 1950s. Same group of wonderful people. Thanks for the memories!

[THETRADOGGFUL]

[sowhatdude1]

Now that's just GREAT!!!

This is what ALL AMERICAN families, ALL AMERICAN folks look like!!!

If there were only more of this kind of representation in the media today, what a happier better place America would be.

Super terrific video, thanks....... :O)

[widowworks]

Thanks

@sowhatdude1

This comment, while made with good intention, is a bit scary.

What is an "All American"?

[MrRJDB1969]

@kovenantkiller : What exactly is scary about the comment "ALL AMERICAN" ? It has been said a million and one times in this country, but suddenly "It's scary" ? I don't understand your concern and I consider myself to be 100% "ALL AMERICAN".

[NETSY296]

@kovenantkiller An 'All American' is a very scary and dangerous deluded braindead lunatic

[ChrisZimny]

@sowhatdude1 Are you a G.I.?

[judikane]

@sowhatdude1 ......And he was gay.

[sowhatdude1]

@judikane ... Who, who was gay? You don't think Mercer was gay do?
