*First Time* 🎵 Neil Diamond - America REACTION

[@cayminlast]

I arrived in America 30 years ago, from Africa and after completing all the requirements was given the privilege of becoming a naturalized citizen, my dream came true. Thank you guys.

[@dwhite849]

thank you for coming.

[@pauld6967]

@cayminlast Welcome and thank you for putting in the effort and doing it the right way. One of the things I miss due to the edicts of His Fraudulency's Administration are the swearing in ceremonies for new citizens. They are always so happy and nervous as they are waiting for it to get started and then rightly happy and proud of their achievement afterwards. :-)

[@Tijuanabill]

@Penderyn Don't be an ignorant fool. The Natives fought wars of conquest as well. War and strife didn't start the day America won her independence; it's human nature. Furthermore, Native Americans are Americans. They can achieve their dreams here better than anywhere else. They are us, even if we are not they.

[@actaeon299]

:) I know it's a little late, but... Welcome to the country. And thank you for becoming naturalized. You're "welcome". But also... Thank YOU for coming.

In 1914 my grandmother Lena at age 17 left Italy by herself and came to America on a ship... since she wasn’t 18 yet at Ellis Island she gave a different date for her date of birth and every year we celebrated 2 birthdays for my grandmother....📖😊🙏❤️🎂🎂🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@frankrizzo4460]

Same here both my grandparents came over on a boat from Italy and went through New York harbor. And they desperately wanted to assimilate to this society. God bless our great Republic 🙏🇺🇸

[@catgirl6803]

Same here, my great grandmother 1914. Maybe they were on the same boat? That would be cool. She was 5 and came with her mother, father, and sister. My other great grandparents also came from Italy one through Baltimore, one in 1890. I'm not clear with all of the different years.

The Jazz Singer (1980) starring Neil Diamond was a remake of 1927 original which was the first movie with sound. My favourite song from the movie is Love on the Rocks.

[@keensoundguy6637]

It was the first movie with dialogue (not a lot though). Don Juan preceded it as the first movie with synchronized sound (in contrast to having music playing that had no relation to the action).

[@DavidJonesZMBY]

Love on the Rocks. Yeah, that's good stuff.

[@cteal2018]

@@sammysoppy3361 one can be the greatest and still have issues. Socially there are a myriad of issues that need to be fixed, but historically one can make the case that America has done more good than harm, without ignoring the bad that we have done.

As a proud American, this song always gives me chills. 🇺🇸🗽

[@tchampagne1494]

The American dream is as real as your own dreams that you carry in your heart. That is what makes America great, our dreams as a free people, living and striving each day to achieve those dreams as best we can. That is why other people of the world want to come to America to live in freedom to make their own dreams a reality. We are extremely lucky to be Americans there is so much we can be proud of despite the ugliness and sins in our history. Live and dream each day knowing that we are the makers of America through accomplishing our dreams.

[@garykidson4489]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@johntsan742]

When this song was released (1980), America was truly the greatest country in the world. Well, at least it was and still is for this immigrant. When reacting to a song you have to put yourself in the era it was released.

I so agree with you on having hope for your country, and how so many musicians now knock our country down, I love a hopeful song like this!

This is an anthem.

[@l.t.6180]

Neil Diamond is definitely one of the best singer-songwriters ever. He sold over 130 million albums, broke attendance records wherever he performed and received numerous awards. He has a highly distinctive and immediately recognisable voice and impeccable phrasing, and he's a hell of a performer. Please review some of his other work. He has a huge catalogue to choose from and has written numerous classics: I'm a Believer, Red Red Wine, Solitary Man, Holly Holy, Brooklyn Roads, Soolaimon, Stones, Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show, Dry Your Eyes, Beautiful Noise... The list is endless!

[@bgaona]

I can't give your reaction enough likes for my taste. You are both so very right about the divergence between perception and reality of America.

[@therealdeal9600]

So glad you guys have got round to listening to Neil Diamond. Amazing songs, amazing voice, truly a song full of hope . Great video guys, keep up the good work!!

[@jhood758]

My Great grandfather came from Ireland 🇮🇪 to Ellis Island to become an American. Ellis Island is just a tourists sight now. Unfortunately many businesses had signs in their windows “Irish need not apply.” He must’ve done Ok because I believe there are 6 generations here now because of him. I love ❤️ America 🇺🇸! I just don’t understand why people can’t appreciate freedom. I never dreamed 20 even 10 years things would be like they are today. ♥️🇺🇸♥️

My folks were huge Neil Diamond fans, so I grew up listening to it, and this was my favorite song in the world for a spell - I loved yelling out "Today" in time with the song! Dig into his catalogue - he's written a TON of phenomenal songs! I had a random chance to see him in concert about a decade ago, and he put on a hell of a show! I loved your comments about defending this great land of ours. I too am disheartened when I hear people crapping on the country. I can take honest criticism, but not the pure hatred I so often hear.

Patriotism. Something sorely missing in society today. This song is a good reminder why America is great.

[@christiangreaves3911]

My grand father used to drive me around 35 years ago and thump this. He loved it. He’d tell me how he saw him live once and that Neil rocked so much people stood out of their chairs. Being into metal that wasn’t too impressive. My grandfather never smiled. Never felt good. His life had been harder than I can easily describe, he was unbelievably stoic. His parents came to this country with nothing, yet by the time he was sixty my grandfather owned three houses and had 5 successful children. He saw the new deal and the promise America offered his parents as inspirational. As I said his life was tough but he had opportunities he just had to work. He pointed out to me that that dream had died with Reagan and that neither party served us anymore. That this song was about the best America could be and had been for him. He just didn’t think that new immigrants could expect the same opportunities.

[@erikjeffreys2144]

God bless you Brad. You're a true Patriot.

[@easyrolling]

Not a bad place to start.. it was a movie song , which he starred in & wrote the music.. Funny about Neil, he can sing rock and pop and whatever you want really, (He did a duet with Barbra Streisand which is an iconic song, what some people called a sell-out) but, all in all, He is probably one of the most beloved American singers of the last 55 or more years. any genre of music. So many to choose from, I would do his first big hit that he sang next, that was Cherry, Cherry, in 1966, soft rock with a good beat..but as he got older, the songs definitely matured .. so many hits for him and songs he wrote for others.. Enjoyed your reaction very much..

[@TheFairyintheFishBowl]

“I am…I said” is my favourite Neil Diamond song! ❤️

Brad, no one takes a dump on America,and don't let them, this is the greatest country in the hands down world!

Neil Diamond wrote this with his grandparents in mind. They were Jewish immigrants who fled Europe during the pogroms. They came here with nothing and he meant every word of it. If you're interested, this song, along with some other of Diamond's top songs, are featured in a movie called The Jazz Singer (1980). It's a pretty great film, featuring Laurence Olivier in the last decade of his 50-year long legendary career. It's the story of a young Jewish man whose immigrant parents want him to be a cantor, but he wants to do his own secular, rock music. Beautiful performances and great sounds.

[@julieheath9507]

This came out in a time where it meant something to come to America. My son in law just became a citizen. He came to America, got his MBA, married our daughter and became a citizen. Now that’s the right way to grab ahold of the dream. We are so proud of him. 🇺🇸 🎉

"The American Dream. Because you have to be asleep to believe it." - George Carlin. I grew up in 1980s America and I'm glad I did. Yes, a lot of people come here and others want to come here, but you see Americans leaving too. The USA is a better place than most other countries. I've been to some of the major countries in Latin America where most people don't have central heat and air in their homes, which wasn't too bad for me because I spent a hot Texas summer in a house with no A/C, but when they come here they'll use central heat and air like everyone else. The truth is, people come here for money. America does provide that for those who work. Still, there are countries that rank higher in quality of living metrics. We're not even in the top 10. This year we rank 25th (still better than Russia at 113th but not as good as Germany, Scandinavia, Benelux countries, Switzerland, Singapore, etc). Australia ranks higher than we do, but even so I ran into a lot of male Australian tourists and expats in South America. *My main gripe is that people get fed all kinds of hype about how great America is and they don't get a balanced view of what it's really like to live here where the streets are not all paved with gold.* * www.heritage.org/index/ranking (we're in the "mostly free" section) * worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/standard-of-living-by-country

Eventually able to get an apartment and in 1925 bought a house. He loved this country. Never made much money but loved what this country stood for.
