I was in the Conference Center for the rehearsal - it was a great moment in my life

[@Martin_L478]

I heard them sing live when I went to Salt Lake City. There's no other experience like it. They're truly amazing.

I'm such a dork ! I was in tears during the Bell Choir Stars and Stripes! God Bless America, and MoTab.

[@rdancer56]

Holy cow, those bells! That was amazing. I love to hear the Tabernacle Choir sing Patriotic Songs. I wish programs like these were broadcast through the school districts.Children are losing the values of patriotism and the reasons why this country is great!

It's simply beautiful - - even for me as a "non-American".

what I'm about to say I want to be able to write and at the same time express how I feel deep inside. MY MOTHER USED TO REMIND ME, WHENEVER WE WOULD HEAR THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER PLAYED OR DURING THE FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATIONS, HOW GREAT OUR COUNTRY IS. I HUMBLY TESTIFY THAT SHE WAS SO RIGHT AND YES EVEN TODAY SHE IS STILL SO RIGHT. THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME THAT WE ARE STILL A GREAT NATION UNDER GOD...AND GOD BLESS AMERICA AND GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES.

"Amazing" Thank you

[@norbertobreda]

Wow! Beautiful!

[@mommyx3ify]

That last piece sounded a lot like God Save The Queen.

[@jobhartgers1854]

It is, it is the same melody, which not really strange, considering that America used to be a colony of the United Kingdom. So they changed the words, but kept the melody.
