America! America! May God thy gold refine Till all success be nobleness, And every gain divine! O beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years, Thine alabaster cities gleam Undimmed by human tears! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea! Oh beautiful for halcyon skies For amber waves of grain For purple mountain majesties Above the enameled plain! America! America!

[@barbarahecht4617]

I am forced to agree with you on this, Jessica. However, I am Not proud that, although most of us know the words, many of us are not aware that Francis Scott Key wrote the words while watching a battle during the War of 1812 (against the British, mind you) and was worried that the British soldiers would capture the American fort where the battle occurred and that the flag flying over the fort was still an indicator that the British troops had not won and taken the fort over and raised their own flag on the battlements.

I have seen this happen quite a few times and there are several videos out there like this with different sports. I seem to recall a little league base ball game where something happened, the teams lined up on the sides of the field and then they made an announcement that the Anthem was not going to be played, but the stands went and sang the anthem without the audio playing. I have also seen clips of hockey games where the Canadian fans sang the US National Anthem when the singer's mic went out and that one really choked me up. There was then a follow up video to that one where the Nashville Predators returned the favor and sang the Canadian Anthem as a pay back for the Canadians singing our anthem. This is the way it should be, we honor and respect each other and we stand side by side with our friends around the world. If only it could be this way everywhere.

The other time was when the Queen irdered our National Anthem to be played outside Buckingham Palace after the 9/11 attacks.

[@dgarvin57]

Thank you so much for this. It is heartwarming during a time of such divisiveness when we are reminded that the ideals for which the National Anthem stand are universal. There is more that unites us, not only in this country but across the world, than divides us. It warms my heart to see your sensitive and empathic reaction.

[@melissaisloud7404]

Our anthem sings in our hearts. I love this beautiful country! 🇺🇸

[@mattwilliams5368]

This happens at a Canadian hockey game,Nashville vs a Canadian team,sorry for my crappy memory,the Canadians sing the anthem when the mic cuts out.GREAT SHOW OF RESPECT.

[@orphu88]

What a beautiful moment. Thanks for sharing that!

[@BB.halo_heir]

Watching your video here from California, in tears, hand over heart, signing along. My beloved, God given country, to thee I sing. Thanks for sharing this, I hadn't seen it before. Much appreciation for your channel and respect for America. My heart and prayers go out to you as well. Take care, be blessed ❤

[@toooldforthisstuff]

Love "America the beautiful" on the pipes! Great opening. And the anthem... wow!

[@NLSmith-qe4sg]

Isn’t it amazing how good a mass of humans sound? I so love our national anthem ❤

[@_R-R]

People may be divided now. But this is one thing that still brings souls together.

[@karisugars5055]

The most amazing singing I have ever been at was a high school wrestling match and the recording failed and the wrestlers at my son's school stood there and started singing the National Anthem all on their own. Picture 15-18 yr old doing this on their own with the crowd joining in. Still gives me chills remembering it.

[@dylanpayte8936]

Epic!!!! I love this country!!! And our citizens ALL of us born here or born elsewhere, we are one we must love each other help those in need work hard and live our best lives!!!

[@marcilk7534]

It’s the unity of it that gets me emotional. Now if we could take this level of unity, but extend it through the entire world.

[@manxkin]

I really teared up with this one. Merry Christmas to you both.

[@menacingdonutz]

There is another similar video of Canadians singing our anthem for an American hockey team playing in Canada when the singers mic also failed, that one is a real tearjerker too seeing another country showing so much respect to our country. I love our brothers and sisters up north as well as all of y’all across the Atlantic and down under. 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇬🇧🇦🇺

[@sheilabree1991]

I'm kinda taken aback that you two were surprised about the bagpipes. Keep in mind, we Yanks are literally your cousins. That includes the Brits, (Anglos) Welsh, (Celts) Manx, (Celts) Cornish, (Celts) Scots (Gaels) and, Irish (Celts) that migrated to "the new world".

[@klahowya_capo]

Still makes me cry! Dont care who sings it. Just sing it with respect and give it ALL you got!

[@susandavis8505]

I sang America the Beautiful when the bagpipes were playing & sang our National Anthem before the mic went out!! Love this reaction guys!! Thank you!! Hope yall have a Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎁❤

[@blakeclarke8584]

Im from America and you guys have more respect for this country then a lot of people from America. I love this country and thank you.

[@FiendFyreNyx]

Since you watched this one, I highly recommend that both of you check out the Kentucky All State Choir singing the national anthem in a hotel. I think the best version is the one from 2019. amazing is an understatement. Its a yearly tradition at the Hyatt Regency in Louisville, Kentucky since 1987. Part of the magic is the acoustics that this hotel atrium has. They aren't the only ones who have taken advantage of this unique hotel though. The Colorado All State Choir has also performed, "down to the river to pray" back in 2019 at this same hotel and numerus other songs over the years. I highly recommend you check out the both videos. However if you choose one, definitely the 2019 version of the Kentucky All State Choir singing the national anthem.

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

Yes! That is stunning!🐝🤗❤️

[@karlicat1]

I instantly thought of that video and was going to suggest it. Gives me goose bumps!!

[@FiendFyreNyx]

@@karlicat1 i get goosebumps every time too. being a band kid in high school, the audience really made big performances so much fun even after the countless hours of practice. and i can only imagine what it felt like in the atrium as an audience member or a performer.

[@BrianPolicky]

I am beyond proud to call Dave my friend! It was stunning to hear everyone come in together, Mad respect to Dave for sticking with it, and even being heard over the crowd!

[@deborahasher176]

Our national anthem was written by Francis Scott Key. He wrote it during the war of 1812. Just an fyi. BTW, I enjoy bagpipes. Wishing you both a speedy recovery and a Merry Christmas 🎄🙏🏻

[@emilywhitfield2780]

I love bagpipes too! Want them played while scattering my ashes by the Mississippi River!!!!

[@Gutslinger]

They watched the video of the Star Spangled Banner a little while ago.

[@deborahasher176]

@@Gutslinger I know. I posted the info for those who don't know the history. From what I understand, they have followers from many countries in the world.

[@janach1305]

The words are by Francis Scott Key. The music is an old drinking song called “To Anacreon in Heaven,” and does not require the singer to hold that killer high note. I suspect it is also easier to sing while drunk.

[@justinsublett5880]

I'm of English and Scots-Irish heritage. My ancestors first landed in Virginia in 1700. The bagpipes are often heard in America and Canada to reflect the strong Scottish and Irish heritage of both countries. And it's almost mandatory for Americans to sing along with the National Anthem at sporting events. You put your right hand over your heart and salute the flag. It's a way of showing devotion to your country and the ideals of America.

[@KyleBaker36]

Love it! Sorry to hear y’all have covid :( hope you guys feel better soon!

[@davidembury5214]

I am a Canadian and this brought tears to my eyes...Very Good !! I Love America and it's people !!

[@beccagee5905]

And we love our Canadian neighbors ❤️

[@golfr-kg9ss]

Can't beat American's for patriotism! Hope you two are doing well and Happy Holidays!!! 🌲🌲🌲 Maybe introduce Millie to some the Texas A&M Aggies marching band or the Ohio State marching band.

[@mikephillips1043]

If your doing marching bands its gotta be the best damn band in the land OSU!!

[@Imissnormal]

The time OSU performed in London for the NFL game they played there was really great.

[@Cheryltwin2012]

"O say does that star spangled banner yet wave O'er the lad of the free and the home of the brave." To me, these are the most beautiful words ever written and they never fail to move me when I hear the Anthem sung, especially by a crowd of sports fans.

[@Teresia12]

Every time I cry but this really, really got to me especially .

[@mattclark1912]

You two are so kind, respectful and "real".

[@SFsc616171]

Hi guys! No matter which "state" we are from, when assembled, and the mike cuts out, there is no question how we will; respond. now, re:bagpipes, I suggest the following "go's": fife and drum, bethpage civil war band (provided most music, on set and in credits of the movie "gettysburg"), native american 'big drum' music. Also, with 'the big drum' music, there might be some 'fancy dancers' , somehting more to behold.

[@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586]

Love our country. Love it when people lift their country up. I think that is one of the best times I have heard our Anthem sang.

[@Kennymac8251]

You need to react to Canadian fans singing the US anthem when the mic fails at a hockey game in Toronto. Impressive. You also need to react to Lady Gaga singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl. Will send shivers down your spine. Never more emotional than her rendition.

[@kimberlyrice4294]

I loved how they all just turned it up when the mic cut. No confusion, or waiting, just full steam ahead! Go USA!
