"American Triange" by Elton John with lyrics.
I'm dedicating this video to Matthew Shepard and his family. Matthew Shepard was killed in October of 1998 because he was gay, which is one of the cruelest acts anyone could commit. Matthew will always be in our hearts, and he will always be remembered. ♥

  • God bless Matthew, Teena Brandon, Gwen Araujo and all victims of senseless, brutal hate crimes. They should never be forgotten.

  • @GaySingleMulatto Ironically, that's one of the few places you can find true beauty anymore. After tragedy, people do what's right not because they want to be remembered for doing the right thing, but because it is the right thing. Which is a sadly rare thing today.

  • @SereenaStellar A few details need clarification. McKinney and Henderson weren't just drinking. Matt wasn't wrapped in wire; his wrists were tied behind the fence while he sat on the ground. As Jean-Paul Sartre noted in "La Nausée", there is no way to tell a story without deviating from the actual. We've seen both "Anatomy of a Hate Crime" and "The Matthew Shepard Story", and neither has all the facts. Then in November 2004, ABC's 20/20 further distorted what happened that night.

  • @BuddyNovinski How is it far from what happened to him?

  • Yes, it was Bernie who wrote it

  • who wrote the lyrics for this beautifully sad song? Was it Bernie?

  • Unfortunately, it's far from what happened to Matthew Wayne Shepard, but nonetheless, it say so much. How can anyone really capture the entire sad incident? The little guy lives on the internet, and it seems as if the internet was made for him. The last time I looked, his internet identity on AOL was still available but "he isn't in".
