  • hey I know this song and really like it, can anyone tell me what the ballad is called?

  • "Ashokan Farewell" is a piece of music composed by Jay Ungar in 1982. It was later used as the title theme of the television miniseries The Civil War, ...

  • Fun fact: Lincoln had a high voice, like comedically high. However, this high voice allowed the speech to be carried over large distances. All dramatic protrayals of him thus far have given him big booming voices, far from the truth.

  • haha I doubt this speech was originally given in such a happy go lucky manner. I seem to recall that this speech was given on a somewhat somber and grave occasion. I'm sure it wasn't said quite so carefree lol.

  • I think he read it too fast.

  • horrible rendition. Lincoln appears entirely too at ease and confident and outgoing. I'm certain that his persona at this moment was one of sadness meshed with an undying resolve. A very somber tone would be more akin to reality.

  • ASHOKAN!

  • please, go back and sue your english teachers!

  • Lincoln was killed in 1865. The Civil war was from 1861 to 1865. Please buy a pre-bellum history book and start reading.
