  • love this great video..! Ron Paul 2012..

  • Hey guys, who singed this song first solomon burke or the skynyrds?

  • @ROCKABILY92 Ray Charles sung it first

  • truth

  • Hey bro, I love it, it's the way America feels.

  • 10 out of 10 ...a very thought provoking slide show

  • I think freedom is overrated. Everything in this world comes with a pricetag.

    Absolute freedom would leave the strong free to pray upon the weak.

    Consider that when your bosses and corporations uses their freedom to fire your sorry asses and move all production to asia. One mans freedom can be a million mens prison.

    All coins has 2 sides.

  • impressive!

    

  • How could the NAU be a bad thing?

  • government never ever creates anything except laws that restrict freedom.wake up people and look at the usa!are we free,hell know.big brother and government are everywhere.we havt to fight the good fight,fuck the government.

  • @itsnotinthisbox freedom from tyranny true wisdom and intellect aslong as money dictates once life tyranny will never go away

  • this isnt pro gun or what the fuck ever it is about being a PATRIOT take your naive ways and move sumwhere else,misspelling is intended 

  • maybe y'all should just listen to the music - it's fucking great :-)

  • Love this video! A ton of info packed in, love it. Just want to warn you to be careful using copyright protected images.

  • not ron paul supporter (things can't be changed overnight) bu I love the concept....ignore the negative and continue forward...

  • I like this video - Good job - I put a link here on my website, great job. And like the sticker says, if it offends them, they're part of the problem!!Q Right ON!!!

  • im just sick and tired of videos either saying America is all fucked up and horrible or Bush, who is a lot better than this fuck we have now, is the devil. i think a bigger problem to look at is tht 52% of the country is so dumb they voted for a communist bleeding heart llberal with NO EXPERIENCE WHAT SO EVER. why dont u make a vid on that... wait prolly not gonna happen cause ur part of the 52% of idiots that did so u can say u made change. wheres the change.. here in my pocket?

  • @88IRONEAGLE You just mad because "There's a Nigger in The White House." Get over it, that guy is trying to save your dumb ass from Bush's cronies who are selling this nation out from under us.

  • @larrybndc Aslong as both black and white love money it matters not who rules a nation

  • Comment removed

  • @88IRONEAGLE...I JUST READ YOUR POST....

    I HAVE CONCLUDED THAT SOME WHITE PPL JUST WANNA WATCH THE WORLD GO DOWN...

    I DONT SEE HOW ANYTHING GOOD CAN BE PRODUCED FROM THE VALUES YOU KEEP OR THE STANDARDS YOU SET....

    I BELIEVE ITS SAFE TO EVEN ASSUME...... THAT YOU ARE DEFINITELY SATANIC....

    THANK GOODNESS THAT THE WHITE MAN DIDN'T DESTROY ALL OF THE TRUTH IN THE HOLY SCRIPTURES WHEN HE RE-WROTE THEM UNDER KING JAMES RULERSHIP AND SIR FRANCIS BACONS SUPERVISION....

  • @POINTMAN8888 Any religion is nothing more as living in a fantasy world only that which can be proven to exist exists even if the existince is an unknown piece of a puzzle god and religion is merely a way for the weak and fainthearted to feel secure or find solece

  • @Shezed....YOU PREACHING TO THE CHOIR....

    I SUGGEST YOU INVESTIGATE BEFORE JUDGING & SPEAKING

  • @POINTMAN8888 no investigation neccesary as religion is for those that need an imaginary frend to feel better. GROW UP

  • @88IRONEAGLE While the Eminem quote is classic, it only stands to reveal your true age and maturity. This video is over 3 years old, if its still pissing people like you off then I guess it has done its job. The point of this video is simply to point out some of things that I saw wrong (and that are still wrong) with our country. Most importantly I wanted to get people to start talking about how we go about fixing these issues.

    (well at least your talking)

  • @lastritesread Talking is an age old remedy to cure riots and spread confusion and chaos. Only by acting will one be free. Freedom and rights is not a thing to be spoken of by the fainthearted

  • @lastritesread lol Eminem a punk

  • @88IRONEAGLE and then you wonder why the world hates you....

  • The narrow minds of the masses will play a part in the destruction of the USA

  • GREAT SONG....NEEDED MESSAGE....REAL NICE SLIDESHOW TO IT Thumbs UP !

  • I like the french Lemat used in small numbers by the south during the American Civil War seen at 2:33 in the video. with the words if guns kill people, do pencils missspell words?

  • for federal law, the only things that should be illegal and therefore the governments jurisdiction are rights violations and defense, everything else isn't the governments business, whenever the government goes beyond this feedom is decreased, basically its more laws=less freedom and crappier economy

  • Never heard Skynyrd do this...but it sounds good, and the video says it all...about this country that is....

  • hey lastritesread ,you left out one vital picture to your video, don't get me wrong, I love it and it's dead on. I think the flag hung upside down shows the state of our nation, BECAUSE WE ARE IN DISTRESS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • I like this song in Ray Charles' version and in Solomon Burke's version and in Lynyrd Skynyrd's version. And I like THIS video too. Its very sincerely and smart. God save America from the ZOG!

  • If you have to pull your piece to first to protect your life, don't think nothing is gonna change, cause your day is already fucked

  • nice version but I am a much bigger fan of salomon burke's version.

    Anyway he is gone now... RIP

  • your video chimes a tribute to solomon

    thank you

    pete

  • hey, lastritesread, GOOD GODDAMN JOB, i love America but I don't like her direction, noone should. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace" Jimi Hendrix

  • damn you no gun mo-foes, this song is dead on and if you don't believe that you are politically illiterate and you need to get your head out of your ass!!!!Question authority and when they come for your guns, give them your bullets and die like your for-fathers who fought and died for what we do have and take for granted.JESUS_H CHRIST. bitches. Have you ever served? I think not, you ain't got the balls.

  • @TBWAY999 so this is your solution? sell guns to any idiot who comes along? in almost any other developed country the possession of weapons is restricted, and that for a damn good reason. statistics prove that in the U.S. more murders happen than anywhere else, simply because anyone can choose to buy and use a gun as they please. at the time the law was formed it had it's right to exist, but not anymore.

    when you allow guns, violence will happen. period. so stop defending this "right"....

  • @Sp1r3 The more I read your reply the madder I get. YOU R UN-AMERICAN and have no right to be here,fuck you

  • @TBWAY999 wrong. i have every right to express my opinion and i don't care how mad you get. and what has being american to do with anything? i was just stating facts, so don't give me that crap..

  • wow... all the years i thougt they just have one good song.. sweet home alabama, now i found at least 5 in few minutes :P

  • @Ph03nix01 Keep looking, 'cause there are plenty more...

  • @88IRONEAGLE I have no idea where you are coming from on your comment? I never said I disliked America or "could run it better". This video was put together simply to get people to open their eyes to whats going on around them, and its happening to all people not just me. Oh, and to be honest no one should get fucked over "Rag Head" or American, I have a feeling that someday you will be faced with a tragedy, and on that day I hope its a "Rag Head" who comes along and lifts you outta your hole!

  • @lastritesread dont worry about 88IRONEAGLE this niggabrownnyjunkyyellowgreenpu­nkysisisealienwetback or wherever he thinks he is,still so dommy n stupid thinking that he is free,lol at this very moment when he clean his dirty hole he should think why on that hell he pay extra to clean himself if he think he is free?or why he pay extra for the pinky panties he wear? or why on the name of wichever lord he belives HE PAY FOR WORK? <--THIS AINT NO FREEDOM IS SLAVISM..,,,.88IRONEAGLE<--u r stupid

  • @88IRONEAGLE “Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it.” -Mark Twain

  • @88IRONEAGLE You are an ignorant fucker. America sucks ass. European countries are by far dominant. Winning wars proves nothing. Almost all of us could run it better anyways not you though you'd be just as bad as Bush...actually that's impossible. Capitalism sucks man and so does Democracy, all you do is choose your dictators. With communism everyone is equal, everyone shares wealth. Look up your facts. Rag Head huh that's good to see that you're racist as well. Fuck you ignorant christian.

  • @88IRONEAGLE - No one here likes you but hasn't bothered to tell you the truth. So here' goes. GOOGLE THIS: Socialism/Communism Attacks Americans Again by CAJeffO

    .

    Also GOOGLE: CAJeffO Letter to America.

    .

    If you're a patriotic American you'll need to understand this info.

    If you're not? Kiss my A**.

  • Yeah! Good job man this kicks ass!

  • F'n'A man, great song...eerily relevant to today's situation

  • This is brilliant and completely spine-chilling. How did we all fall so asleep at the wheel? Totally excellent. Keep it coming. Ignore all the uninformed comments. This is spot-on.

  • @dexterb4 listen to dexter he knos

  • up until a year an a halfo ago, I was still asleep, now I am not a 9/11 truther or anything, but our government is trying to take our consitution and others rights away from us, as they try and establish a dictatorship. I just turned 21 and I feel that I am one of the only people my age who can see this stuff happening.

  • SO MUCH TRUTH TO THIS SONG

  • Check out the Blind Boys of Alabama's version. Classic. Good job on your first vid!

  • ..an addition to my earlier comment... I could say not bad for a first posting, but who would I be kidding?

    This clip is inspired.

  • wow. This is beyond brilliant. The video is right on the mark and the song fits like a glove. I loved this song by Solomon Burke but Lynyrd Skynyrd and this video take it to a whole different level. SImply excellent. More please.

  • Comment removed

  • Tellin' it Like it is! and Was

  • FUCKIN A MAN

    Well Done.

  • bang~!

  • Why all the bullshit pro-guns stuff? It totally ruins the message of the song.

  • @Nate770 if I am to be assaulted with guns then I shall defend myself with the same tools !! To bring a nife to a gun fight is suicide.

    also "any right you are not willing to stand up and give your life for was never your right to claim in the first place. " thats a somewhat quote I forget from who but you get the point.

  • You couldn't shoot me. Not even if I playfully slap the barrel like this! heehee!heehee!

    You'll win cookies if you get the reference.

  • @lastritesread

    nobody assaults you with anything

  • @lastritesread i totally agree with you but youre forgetting something. there is another constitutional right that is being trampled upon and nobody seems to care. the right to free speech. the way to control thought is to cotrol speech. if i cant say FUCK for long enough ill stop thinking it and thats NOT FUCKING RIGHT

  • I have to agree with that.

  • @Nate770 I do believe the point is "What's good for the goose isn't good for the gander"

  • @Nate770 are you serious? Do you think the slaves in the American South, prior to 1865, would have refused guns if you gave them out? Would they say "why all this bullshit pro-guns stuff?" I doubt it. They'd know exactly what to do with those guns, and they would be happy to do it.

  • @Nate770 fag

  • nice

  • i love skynryd, but i have 2 admit soloman bourks cover is a bit better

  • Who wrote the song?

  • I honestly don't no. But my moneys on Lynryd Skynryd.

  • @iwinatlife18

    Brenda Russell; Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil

  • @jeffd214 Brenda Russell; Barry Mann;  Cynthia Weil

  • oh. ok. thanks for that.

  • nice vid.well done. and to all the 9-11 conspiracy believers get for real.9-11 was a true terrorist attack.invading iraq is where the the real conspiracy kicks in

  • good, love skynyanrd , but solomon burkes version is tops

  • great song and great video man, very clear concepts to.

  • Your first video ? Damn you're Good !

  • great song and excellent video, good choice of pictures concerning very true issues

  • you may want to take a look at what happened in the case of the riechstag fire, since you are obviously so smart, maybe a good read on the bay of pigs or the gulf of tonkin incidents.

    Its called false flag opperations and it has been used by many nations to forward thoer own agendas!

  • I'm not saying that false flag operations don't happen, but not 9/11.

    Bush and his greedy buddies took advantage but there is no way that brainless twit could have pulled off any operation like that. Dubya has left a trail of failure his entire life.

    Had Bush done 9/11 the planes would have crashed into the Hudson River and the explosives would have been planted in the wrong buildings.

  • What explosives?

  • good use of dunderhead XD

  • @cooldaddyjames Hahahaha it's funny how ignorant you are. You don't know what that means but whatever. It was a CONSPIRACY theory it was all that fuck tard Bush's plans to start a war. Actually america has done that in the past you mother fucking idiot! BAY OF PIGS! Ring a bell?

  • Excellent vid man!

  • spot-on video, cheers :-)

  • Awesome !!!! 5 Stars.

  • BTW the song is impressing! Here in damn Spain we don´t have that kind of shit !

  • The song is great whatever, it seems to be written by: Russell, Brenda, Mann, Barry, Weil & Cynthia.

    Both covers are cool, though I´d pick up Solomon´s one. It´s more naked and true.

  • great first effort? great effort, period! outstanding job. solomon burke's original is awesome, but this song belongs to lynyrd skynard! thanks.

  • how could it be burke's original, if skynyrd released the song in 1997 and solomon burke released it in 2002?

  • it looks like we're both wrong. it was published by ray charles in 1993.

  • Comment removed

  • Very good, young man!

  • Wish I had seen this last year. It is very good.

  • Wanted to thank you for reminding me what George W. Bush did to this country.

  • Not really sure if anyone else caught onto this beautiful ironic gem, but at 3:40 it shows an old war picture of a man smiling in a plane, with the words "Everythings going to be alright, your sons and daughters will be home soon." Now admittedly, that doesn't seem ironic on it's own, but when you place it on a LYNYRD SKYNYRD song, the focal members having died in a horrific plane accident, it gives way to something beautiful. Bravo.

  • You know that hadn't even occuered to me! Good Schtuff!! Next vid in the works sorry its been so long all.

  • Great First Effort Lastrites! Never had heard that song b4 and I am a skynyrd fan...geez...what a maroon am I!

  • Like Skynyrd, found your vid and loved it till the end ! Good job !

  • nice video!

    greetings from Portugal

  • i like the video, fuuny , yet true and sad

  • brilliant

  • I got to get some of those bumper stickers..

    Good vid..

  • First time hearing this song. Thought the video went very well with the message. Good job to ya. Hope to see more.

  • great video :)

  • Would ya do the whole "TWENTY" album???

    that would ROCK!

  • Nice Solomon Burke`s Cover

  • Didn't know that it was done by Solomon Burke will have to check it out. Thanks for the comment!

  • The Skynyrd version was recorded in 1997, 5 years before Burke released it on 'Don't Give Up on Me.' The song was first recorded in 1993 by Ray Charles and written by Barry Mann and his wife Cynthia Weil. Mann also scored for movies and had numerous hits with "You've Lost that Loving Feeling" by the Righteous Brothers and "We've Got to Get Out of this Place" by The Animals.

  • Now theres a youtuber that knows his music thanks for the heads up the Soloman Burke version is very good, now I get to look for the Ray charles version ;p

    Thanks for commenting!

  • well I didn`t know that details so thanks for the history and stuff man! nice info!!

  • The composer column in my player is nearly always empty when I put my CD's on my computer and its so important. I like to know where the genius comes from.

  • Great music and message, keep it up man!

  • Thanks for the support and the Subscription!

    A new video is in the works!

  • Good work, 5* from me.

  • Thanks Alot! Sorry took so long to say so :)

  • The Big Shiver, that's what it gave me, was the Big Shiver, goose bumps all over my body! Bravo, hooray and good going, man: GREAT VIDEO! Five stars, fave and share! Can't say enough or wait to see the next one . . if its okay with your fiance'.
