This Land Is Your Land

Inspired by Glenn Beck's inexplicable ranting against the government owning land and preserving it and stirring up fears about the indoctrinization of Woody Guthrie music. Scenes from the National Parks are displayed and words from Presidents and Park leaders as David Summerford harmonizes with himself and plays This Land is Your Land on a variety of stringed instruments.

Very scenic

Excellent vocal arrangement, excellent instrumentation, excellent images— a strong rebuke to Beck's anti-American rhetoric. His vilification of Woody is understandable. Although you don't include those verses here, this song is a powerful indictment of the "property over people" free market screed that Beck promulgates. Other lines from other songs: "The gamblin' man is rich and the working man is poor" and "some will rob you with a six-gun and some with a fountain pen" should scare Beck!

Great American scenes !! I don't think Beck's views influence too many people ,he is a border line case .

Well done video!

Well Done David

I'm not sure what to make of the of the Beck thing yet. I think Woodie did the best he could and many people were (and still are) affected in a positive way by his music.

Thanks

Dave
