Ronan Tynan Sings God Bless America

[@jasonchristen5650]

I was at Game 1 of the playoffs vs. Oakland in 2001 when he sang. This was maybe a little over a month after 9/11. Many fans in tears. An experience that I will never forget!

[@Section9Wannabe]

Ronan should be given a lifetime contract to sing this at ANY YANKEES POST SEASON GAME. Thumbs if you agree.

[@Lakeron]

This Moves me every time I see and hear this! No other venue but Yankee Stadium and Ronan Tynan can match this atmosphere!

[@patrickgray5633]

Ron Linsangan they need to bring him back Reds fan here I loved hearing him at all those Yankees Playoff Games.

[@nuksmom]

This man's singing gives me goosebumps! He has an amazing voice and the ability to make you 'feel' the song he is singing. Love him!!!!

[@Jeff7971]

Ronan, thank you again for all you did for us during the horrific events of 9/11, from the countless events and close to 70 funerals for the FDNY, Port Authority and NYPD. When you were abandoned by some of NYC when you were falsely accused of being an anti-Semite, those of us that know and love you, know the truth will always stand by you... Thank you, brother!

[@Mantleman07]

Absolutly and utterly amazing. He needs to come back. I feel for memorial day. We miss you Ronan and keep on singing that phenominal voice that you will alway posess. Go Yanks!

[@user-kt4iu5wc3c]

Talk about bringing the house down... the most beautiful, heartfelt, stirring rendition of this song.

[@no1ynkfan1101]

As a 48 year old life long Yankee fan, I was lucky enough to be able to spread my Dad's ashes in the stadium by the left field foul pole 4 days before the last game was played. Watching this video and looking down the line brings tears to my eyes as I listen to Ronan and the rest of the great Yankee fans sing God Bless America. Some Americans just dont know how lucky we are to live in the greastest country in the world!!!!!!

[@leftd5]

he is amazing i love listening to this

[@tony_anello]

Just one of the greatest videos you will come across. Felt like he sang this live all the time back then. Good times.

[@hybridthreat]

Everytime I hear him sing that version, I get chills throughout my body, I wish I could be there one time when he does that.

[@84bucci]

I loved him. Aside from the remarks he made this video is priceless for a few reasons 1..old stadium 2..Ronan and last but not least 3.bob shepherd is in the background. Great video

[@patrickgray5633]

I think he was provoked was he in the wrong yeah but somebody was looking for trouble. Very sad as a Reds fan whose not a Yankees fan obviously Ronan did this song so great the hair on your neck would stand up thats how great he did it.

[@bstrac77]

I have to agree with you. I'm also a lifelong Sox fan and what this guy does is amazing. Speaks to the tradition of our great game. I was especially sweet when I was at game 7 of the 04 ALCS knowing that we only needed 9 outs to punch our WS ticket!

[@Section9Wannabe]

This man is a MUSE of this blessed song. He should be given a lifetime contract to sing at any Yankees home post season game. Furthermore, it should ONLY be acapella. Thumbs up if you agree!!

[@TripTraveler]

New Yorkers! You are the best! Where else in the US would people sing like this? Amazing!

[@MorganTB]

Thanks for a beautiful song with a amazing voice, such power and feelings. Truly a great singer, thanks for the posting Tom in TN. USA

[@SPFAlpha]

I bow to New York, the symbol of American success and power Thank you George Steinbrenner for one of the most touching moments of my life: to have a foreigner singing about the beauty of America How lucky I am, God bless America, my home sweet home

[@uDibo615]

keep Ronan alive...post this video on all your Facebook, Myspace, Twitter pages etc....were close to winning the whole thing baby!!!! LETS GO YANKEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jonnylawrence3818]

Ronan Tynan, the Yankees, and this song during the playoffs are very powerful. There is something in the air....

[@Juegos_dophia]

thanks a lot i couldn't hear the end is the best part thank you

[@HeresRonnie]

I get goosebumps listening to this version of "God Bless America." God Bless America and Go Yankees!

[@johnoconnor4623]

So relevant now too. In USA it was September 11; in France it is November 13. 9/11 in USA, 13/11 in France. USA lost more than 3000, France nearly 300. But I will sing the anthems forever: Le Marsellaise and Star Spanlged Banner.

[@jpoe141]

i was there alds 2006 he rocked!

[@yankeebo]

Totally awesome. Say what you want about George Steinbrenner, but he is a true patriot who brings in Ronan Tynan, the late Kate Smith, and flies the falcon and eagle as symbols of the greatest country on earth. GOD BLESS AMERICA

[@eblittner]

I meet Ronan in person. He was the coolest dude ever.

[@sergiovalle21]

when he sang God Bless America on the last game it gave me chills cause it will be for the last time ever in Yankee Stadium :( and everyone was singing along that shows union and patriotism...I am not American, I am Puerto Rican

[@johnfoconnor]

a great song and a great singer.

[@Refazhe]

they need to bring him back, he was and still is the best

[@Coasterrider210]

brings tears to my eyes

[@cabopaultube]

No one can do it better.

[@Gravesend83]

that was beautiful.

[@DonGroucho]

He's the only man who should sing that song at sporting events. Well done.

[@TheJLew]

its also a symbol of the recovery and the sacrifice of america and nyc after 9/11 and now overseas in iraq and afghanistan. it honors our troops, police, and fire units who serve with integrity and dignity

[@BigDaddyFromRedmond]

Ronan Tynan had both legs amputated when he was 20. He went on to win 18 gold medals at the Paralympics and set 14 world records. His accomplishments are remarkable.

[@michaeld5]

keep 'em coming!!

[@CM_Plane_Spotting]

Amazing voice.

[@Milo_1368]

Dude, whoever recorded this was sitting like two or three rows under me! God Bless America!

[@rgwork]

It is never out of place to celebrate one's country.

[@Juliano4425]

God bless America 🇺🇸

[@juliewarrington6660]

Beautiful

[@josephbrooks7127]

amazing...........

[@phillibuster]

gives me chills

[@Milordvega]

Imagine, that's an Irishman singing it so beautifully! Goosebumps.

[@29008000]

Are people tired of God at baseball games? I am, so new lyrics. After all it is people, like you and I, who make America great. Try belting it out yourself this way, in the goosefleshing Tynan style, and imagine the whole stadium joining in: I bless America, land that I love. I stand beside her, and guide her, Through the night with the light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam, I bless America, my home sweet home. I bless America, my home sweet home!

[@jeremyherlihy]

Yankees, bring back Ronin

[@uDibo615]

Bring Ronan back!!! LETS GO YANKEES!!!!

[@leadingham3000]

damn tooo bad they could not get this guy to sing god bless america in this year world series he is asome congrats to the new york yankees god bless new york and let's repeat next year

[@lenesto1]

Me Gusta esa canción...

[@jimmcardle112770]

The one and only!

[@brickbradford]

amen to all that...

[@sethg28]

Amen to that !

[@banbud684]

I miss the old stadium

[@Lava1964]

As a lifelong Red Sox fan, I don't like much about the Yankees. Two exceptions are Bob Sheppard and Ronan Tynan. Baseball has the best and grandest traditions of any sport!

[@dicksoutforharambe5578]

Awesome!

[@goYankees19]

it's really too bad about Ronan Tynan. i miss him singing this in the 7th inning. it was a highlight of every home game.

[@ndcrhendu]

I hate the Yankees but have to watch everytime they are on TV so I can hear this during the 7th inning!

[@no1ynkfan1101]

Robert Merrill sang the Anthem at the stadium most of the time

[@natedogg4116]

Im not sure how it gets any better than him singing at Yankee Stadium in the playoffs

[@Kahtriffa]

to bad he got fired my teacher loves his singing

[@BBOY73]

funny you say that, there's a better version right on youtube where he's doing it at a hockey game in Buffalo, NY with better video quality... no doubt he's the best to do this song.

[@boomac62]

Well, thats all well and good and i do want God to bless America, as well as Iraq,Afghanistan& the entire world. As a veteran myself i love my country and respect those who serve...my point is that this is a baseball game. Lets leave the flag waving out of it becasue it becomes political, over 40 young service men were killed in July in Afghanistan and hardly a peep is heard...just the singing of this song. Peace

[@watchman1066]

GLOBAL POWER FOR AMERICA!

[@boomac62]

well, we disagree, it seems like propaganda to this vet but to each their own. Thanks for you service my friend.

[@BigspooksInc]

why did they get rid of ronan? he's so special to the yanks!

[@zebrahead32]

ronan good irishman

[@matadormike1970]

@MNsportsnut he sings the song the way it was written with introduction if you are a music major it was not written to be sung in 20 seconds and this man sings it better than anyone I could not stand Kate but everyone loved her version

[@zinzxonx]

LET'S GO YANKEES!!!!!

[@Michaelphelps0808]

New Stadium New Era New Begining Yankees World Series Champions 2009 We Can We Will We Believe Yankees Universe we Are NY Yankees we Believe... :)

[@helpone]

I licked the ashes.

[@KBurns47]

ur a db hes awesome.

[@g0t24568]

let's go yankees go!!!!

[@gafferoo]

Go SOX!

[@shamrockmarc]

everytime i'm at yankee stadium and he's singing its priceless. kate smith all the time is boring... tynan!!!!!!!

[@jmarsh89]

He's the only one who can make this song sound good to me. The Kate Smith recording that they almost always play gets old and annoying after a while, but this one never does.

[@ken7786]

thought that laugh was reserved for brazilians....

[@Section9Wannabe]

@gsumpter11 I kinda disagree with that statement. It's been proven time and time again, that if the people want something bad enough and make enough noise about something, then things can change. Yankee fans need to make a statement. NOT BUYING STADIUM TICKETS for about 10 home games, would I think get Yankee management's attention. Just my opinion.

[@EDIcekream]

can an alien player sing this song??

[@Zaneks2]

yea how bout dem Yankees? Da Bread Sox couldn't do anything like this!

[@boomac62]

it's a good job, it just does not belong in the middle of a baseball game.

[@boomac62]

how about "Take Me Out To The Ballgame"? This is just a reaction to 9/11...if you were in Cuba or China at an event and sometime in the middle of that event a patriotic song was sung I would think that was out of place....so is this. Peace!

[@niallgeraghty200190]

Americans are just 2 serious wen it comes too comments .......... (about the jewish ladies incident) in ireland u wouldnt take ne notice if u said nething like that ............

[@Section9Wannabe]

I am watching the ALCS 2010 Yankees vs Texas. I just watched (I missed the guy's name) him sing God Bless America. Granted he is decent, but he can't touch Ronan.

[@meomy94]

hes my cousin..

[@patrickgray5633]

He made a mistake but deserved another chance.

[@pgraybengal]

Been to the old & new Yankee stadiums the old is way better & Im not from NY

[@Andrew4d]

VIVA CHAVEZ!! AHUEHEEHEUEHEUEHEUE

[@ffrick73]

WTF? No Social protections? Ever hear of the Bill of Rights? Most Europeans never heard of personal rights before that.

[@TriforceGuyHere]

I hate it, they cut out the damn music. I came here for music and I get nothing.

[@tony_anello]

Triforce Guyez Come back. It’s here now

[@boomac62]

well, is a song that only began being played in the 7th inning after 9/11 so perhaps it is more political than patriotic....anyway I'm a veteran,i love my country but it's a baseball game..play "Take me out to the ballgame"...and if we need an "Americana" song why not "Centerfield"?

[@wwuussaaTRON]

the yankees need to buy this guy a apartment in nyc and get him to sing every postseason game. that ladys verse is shit compared to ronan's. record him and play it when hes not there.

[@rgwork]

@hobbified Stick it globbified

[@AndrewLargeman7]

don't hate on jewish people because of this deal... all you're doing is becoming the hateful person. a large chunk of Yankee fans are jewish, including myself, and I'd rather have Ronan Tynan back singing God Bless America...

[@Jeff7971]

Dr. Tynan has never claimed to be a "great tenor" HIS CRITICS HAVE SAID HE IS!!! As for the Reagan Funeral, you sing in front of over 1 BILLION PEOPLE around the globe and tell me how nervous you'd be. Cut the guy some slack!

[@robyculver]

No, judging a guy buy what some P.R. person says they should do to help their public image, and not by how they treat the people around them is pathetic. Assuming that one sound engineer is an idiot just because the ones he's worked with in the past are idiots is pathetic.

[@chrisbrown456]

this is one of the more insipring versions of this ive ever heard

[@MNsportsnut]

I wouldn't have removed him for his comments but for the fact that when he sings God Bless America at the Yankee games he takes way too long. It really ruins the flow of the game.
