I'm 80 and still get goose bumps when hearing this song. The first time I voted it was JFK he was our hero and like a gift to this Country. I'm 80 years old and I remember how devastated I was when JFK was assassinated, I cried and tried to reason why???? Such a sad sad day for his family and for our Country. It was never the same after JFK.

The 60s, they murdered all the good ones. This was the beginning of the end for so much hope, prosperity, and love in America. We still haven't recovered. This was a beautiful tribute, thank you!

[@DivineSimply]

Judy adored Kennedy and was devastated by his murder. Therefore, watching her here, singing despite her grief, I can only say, what a show biz thoroughbred and pro she was.

[@nudnikjeff]

The story is that she said "this is for you, Jack" and they either cut it or forbade her from saying it.

nudnikjeff THOSE M.F.'ING BLOODY BASTARDS!!! Those SUNSOFBITCHES did all they could to squeeze all the literal life out of Garland and make her work LIKE A DOG and ALMOST TO DEATH and then the PRICKS wouldn't let her say THAT on HER OWN SHOW?! Thatis BEYOND INFURIATING.

Judy wanted to sing this song the week after Kennedy's death but CBS said no, that it would be too morbid and America wanted to move on from JFK's death. Judy was FURIOUS at CBS brass, especially because she and JFK had become good friends and Judy had worked hard to help get JFK elected. This performance was recorded in February, I believe. It's still blood-curdling, her performance. She loved JFK and was devastated by his assassination. She used to call JFK to say hello and when their conversations ended, JFK always asked if she would sing the last stanzas of Over The Rainbow.

[@mackdog832]

It’s a a shame CBS didn’t let her sing right after the assassination of the President it’s what the country needed to begin the healing process….kinda like we sang God Bless America after 9/11

Almost 60 years later, and this is the first time I remember seeing the footage of John-John wiping his eyes after saluting his father's casket passing in front of him. I was eight years old. What I knew was that he was a father, and now his kids don't have him, anymore.

[@damienrecords]

Judy is was a legend during that period. I was in third grade, my teacher came in crying and she said we had to go home. I walked home. We lived in Houston Texas. Mom was crying when I got home. Yes everyone who is alive does remember where you were when JFK was murdered. Just as I will always remember that I was on my way to work when I lived in New York on 9/11!

[@GrandpaCanCook]

I was 15 when President Kennedy was assassinated. For those of us living in the US, for a short period of time, the world stopped. I think all of us young people loved President Kennedy. Judy Garland, well our parents were her fans, but her song helped eased the pain for a lot of us.

[@EagleArrow]

I was born after his assassination, MLK, & RFK. When learning about these assassinations all at once and add Lincoln to it, many in my generation didn't believe the stories given. We questioned it right away. As what are the odds? There are no coincidences and frankly it was quite a sloppy cover up. Children are very perceptive and brain is not yet controlled. I am still mad about JFK as he was decent & good for America. I researched all his speeches & executive orders and they were good for America. (Not really believe his affairs are true in a controlled media. Look how they treat Trump. Just so hate crazy it makes the brain think, something not right.) He was the good fighting the evil. I still want justice for his murder. God will handle, but our nation never healed from JFK & would like closure no matter what the truth is, we need the truth. We have an idea of the truth, but the future children learning should not be lied too. I never believed the Warren Commission, but it also taught me not to trust the government, the media and to question everything. I've done okay and my oldest is now a doctor. JFK was a Conservative Democrat Patriot. He would not align with the current Democratic party. Trump is very much aligned with JFK's view. Sorry, but the party was hijacked by radicals and by some in the Republican party too. Our beloved Country was hijacked and run by shady characters since his murder. Look what all happened in the 60s. No bibles in schools, drug era, Roe vs Wade, Vietnam, dumbing down America, sexism, Play Boy Club. It was all a plan to bring down America in one generation. Now they just don't teach much about their murders, nor much about Tesla. So I teach my kids about this era and let them question the narrative.

We lost a huge loss in the murders of the Kennedy's. They were good and a huge threat to the corrupted status quo. Although they were raised privileged, they we're raised with morals and empathy. They were concerned, caring and fair. They were truly patriotic. Polar opposite of the extremely privileged republicans that only know profiteering, raping and total corruption. Judy was a national/world treasure. Her sweetness and passion we're pure, unpretentious and soulful. Her sweetness and passion we're pure, unpretentious and soulful. She was obviously victimized and misused by the heartless studios, but they still couldn't break or stop her from shining because she was adored by her peers and public and she still is ! God bless and rest her soul. May she be singing and flying freely always. True example of actual American excellence.

[@jorgeespinosa3179]

JFK was not perfect. We all know that now. But what he stood for, and more importantly for whom he stood for, undoubtedly makes him an honorable man. To be cowardly assassinated the way he was not only make him a victim, but elevates him to hero status. His life was cut short at a moment in time when we loved him the most. For those of us who remember President Kennedy, the pain remains the same. And sadness still overcomes us. And grief. But his legacy grows with every year.

[@rivkahlapidus797]

He was not perfect, but he brought something we still need--hope. And the knowledge that imperfect people can inspire- true for his brothers as well. That we have come to the travesty of MAGA is almost the death of hope---but the truth of the great ones goes marching on.

(R) Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! His truth is marching on. I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps, They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps: His day is marching on. (R) Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! His day is marching on. I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel: "As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal; Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel, Since God is marching on." (R) Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Since God is marching on. He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat: Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet! Our God is marching on. (R) Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Our God is marching on. In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me: As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on. (R) Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! While God is marching on. He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave, He is Wisdom to the mighty, He is Succour to the brave, So the world shall be His footstool, and the soul of Time His slave, Our God is marching on.

November 25, 1963: The first of four days of rehearsals at CBS for the next episode of "The Judy Garland Show." Judy was still distraught over the recent assassination of her friend, John F. Kennedy. She wanted to do a one hour concert of patriotic songs in his honor and to help lift the spirits of the country. CBS turned her down. Allegedly their response was "in two weeks no one will remember JFK" (!!!) She slipped a tribute to him in the taping of another episode of the show on December 13th when she sang this chilling rendition of "The Battle Hymn Of The Republic." Just prior to singing the song, she said to the camera "This is for you, Jack" (JFK) The network cut that out.

Bravo. The public would have loved this...the hell with Aubrey! And John John's salute gets me every time...I can remember seeing it happen live back then--a heart-wrenching moment in American history. ^^X^^

Two of the greatest losses in the US. The way we lost JFK and way we lost Judy Garland.
