Sweet celebration of a queen. It suits her perfectly. God bless Zenyatta and Team Zenyatta. I'm honored to watch you all. Keep putting her welfare first and I'll be watching wherever she races!
Hands and heels to whomever produced this video and song. Such as positive image and sound for horse racing. We saw Lady Z at Del Mar last year. There are no words to describe the image she projected as she entered the paddock. By far the most physically impressive horse we have ever seen, but it's her mind that's make her so special.
So very sad today to hear of the news of the passing of this sweet lady. She fought the battle and in the end, lost. We will never forget you Liza. I enjoyed meeting you at Santa Anita and Hollywood Park. Your song will always inspire me. May you rest in peace. I'd like to think you can serenade Zenyatta's two sweet babies Z Princess and Z16 with this wonderful song about their Mama Queen Z.
"Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" You hear the crowd roar The grandstand is shakin' like never before She crosses the wire, she winks at her fans One ear pointed forward and one toward the stands "Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" You are the Queen, The greatest racehorse that we've ever seen! "Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" Hail to the Queen! The greatest racehorse that we've ever seen!
Zenyatta might not have the blinding speed of a legend like Secretariat, but she's exactly what this sport needs right now -- a dominant racehorse who can put on a hell of a show and win with style. Like Trevor Denman said, "She doesn't win by much, but it's the WAY she wins!" I don't particularly like country music, but this song is beautiful, and I am definitely a fan of this video.
the lyrics to this song are incredible. it's a great song. the lyrics and music melt into each other like all great songs do and the lyrics are very knowledgeable of horse racing and very knowledgeable of Zenyatta. So clever and so accurate. The lyrics say exactly who Zenyatta is. And it is a swaying, lovely song and a great honor and tribute to the great Zenyatta.
Watched this wonderful video and tribute to Zenyatta today. Had just read the news the sire of Zenyatta had to be euthanized today due to a medical condition. Very sad news. He will live on through Zenyatta and her babies and other great horses. Rest in peace Street Cry.
What a wonderful song. I've watched Queen Z for her whole career and she has been an absolute joy. I want to thank the Moss's for sharing her with us as long as they did. I'm also so very glad that she is going to Kentucky (my home state) for a well deserved rest. As much as I have enjoyed watching her I still remember Ruffian. Everytime I watched Zenyatta race this last year it was no longer please let her win, it was please let her get home safe! Thank you again for sharing her with us!
LOVE this song....and, I'm not a big country music fan but this has my toes taping! Thank you, Lisa & whoever else is responsible for putting this together! Love this song & ADORE Zenyatta!
flaxin1-- Thanks for the extra info. on Native Dancer always coming from behind. We have a great great grandson of his too. We are huge Zenyatta fans, and I try to watch this video as often as time permits.
Great job honoring the GREATEST horse I've ever been fortunate to meet!!! Your song gives me goosebumps Liza G. I think I play this video 10 times a day, and it brings tears to my eyes. BTW...I'm a life long Trainer of Thoroughbreds, and a pretty tough critic...but you blew me away with this song. Well done!!!
Wow! I'm a singer/songwriter myself and when I heard that there was a song out, I thought it would be too corny. It's not at all! Great lyrics, great rhythm, and just great all around! Thanks! I love the "Hip Number 703" and the picture of young Zenyatta: Not too bad lookin', a little bit furry She'll do for someone who's not in a hurry.... Thanks so much!
The very fact that this song was made (and a video produced) is a testament to what an impact Zenyatta has had on horse racing and the immense good she has done for the sport.
Well I met Kari with Animals Rock 4Love, flew to Louisville, KY, to meet them and see Zenyatta in her last race. I lost dear Kari from cancer. I got it in 2013 but after extensive surgery they felt they got it all. I send this song daily to people to educate them about Queen Z. My heart is broken. This woman had a beautiful voice, Michele in TX.
Liza, I still adore this song, and Zenyatta, she is forever instilled in my heart, I will always love her, her owners and her team for what an amazing loving job they did with her, and still do, Thank you for this, it comes to me in the middle of the night, that is how much I love her, Michele.
Thank you for posting. Really lifted up my day to hear this sweet song. I'm sorry to see this news about the singer. Her voice and personable style are so sweet and soothing--like Karen Carpenter.
WOW!!! THANK YOU, Liza! Our Queen now immortalized in song! The lyrics are wonderful! The shots of Zenyatta are awesome--especially that headshot of her at the end of the video! This is so great!, I loved it all!!!!
Liza and her great song "Zenyatta" never fail to uplift and inspire. It is just an incredible tribute to the Queen of horse racing. Those of us that were privileged to watch her run and get to know her in person count our blessings. I cannot go to the racetrack and not remember her efforts and her classic come from last move.. Everyone connected to Zenyatta gave us the opportunity to enjoy her. What a class act each and every one. Zenyatta really can give us hope and inspiration. She is missed each and every day. Hadn't listened to this song in awhile and I needed to this morning. Thank you Liza .
@jhracefan I could not agree more. I adore Zenyatta and have followed her career since the beginning. She is everything that horse racing is about (for me). Outstanding horse full of heart. I am also a fan of Rachel Alexandra's. Gorgeous. She ran her heart out and she deserves all of her accolades. Just a great, great horse. How lucky we are as race fans to be able to witness two awesome fillies in two years! That is hard to come by! Girl Power! Both horses are fantastic! Thanks, ladies!
I just love this song, it makes me so happy everytime I listen to it, which is about 3 times a day haha. She was so good for the sport we love Zenyatte
Great song Liza! Like I said b4 it's an instant Classic for all of horse racing! Love the feel and the spirit of your song and video! Great Job & well done! I know Zenyatta loves this as well! She pawing at ground for her version two thumbs up Liza! ... Very Nice!!!
From The Great Volunteer State of Tennessee.....HOME OF COUNTRY MUSIC..... Thank you, thank you, thank you, for immortalizing the Queen with this terrific song. I love it!!!! You really captured how much we all love her and how great she is! Zenyatta the Best..... Go Zenyatta! GO!!!
I feel sorry for people who don't know Greatness when they see it....sad for them....as for us nothing but JOY....JOY....JOY... Zenyatta is The Greatest !! We love you Zenyatta!
So sweet and celebratory for a Queen so deserving! thanks! I love all the people around her. They all have such class. Keep putting her welfare first. Race her when she's ready and I'll be watching! God bless Team Zenyatta!
I rode in my first horse show, and was allowed to pick my own number. I picked 703 because of Zenyatta and this song. It brought me luck. I won in my equitation class and ribboned in both my pleasure classes
Some one put this on ITunes so I can Buy It! After working all day long, I sat down to see this in my mailbox,wow, I love it & it is country (my favorite). ! am now facebooking this to everyone I know :) !
Liza, I just love your song. Its lyrics are so sweet and clever. Just like Zenny. I play this song anytime I want to be cheered up and choked up! I just want you to know you have a montana fan!
Such a Beautiful voice they now have in Heaven singing for God... I never met Liza, But knew of her thru "Kenyatta" a close friend. Thank you Liza for the Awesome CD you made for all your Family and Friends to keep your Memory living within us all...
I'm humbled and honored that you included my pink poster 14 of 14! I made this for her farewell at Santa Anita on December 26, 2009. Zenny is truly a Rock Star. We love her and always will!! Thanks for writing this song for The Queen :-)
@PhatMama469 As you can tell by now, Zenyatta's fans have not abandoned her. We all love her just as much as if she had won the BC. She just has the charisma that attracts love and loyalty.
Zenyatta's great great (Great) grandfather was Native Dancer, who won I believe 21 or 22 races, lost only one. The Kentucky Derby, he came in second. They called him the Gray Ghost. just fyi for all. I love Zenyatta! Going to see her October 2nd at Hollywood Park, wish I could go to Churchill to see her race and beat the boys again.
@ruffianruns, And you did a great job doin' it too!! Thanks,... these lyrics are a riot! I'd had them sent to me via e-mail before I'd heard the song, and was imagining them sung by a Jeff Foxworthy type, and then had a great laugh over that! Liza does a great job, and yes Zenyatta is fitting of having a good song about her out there, that tells her story! This is by far the best song about her yet I think! Thanks for posting these lyrics for us Ruffianruns!
Destiny smiled on that Street Cry daughter She grew up and became Zenyatta Everybody watched when she spread her wings And now she's the Queen of the Sport of Kings! Zenyatta arrives, you feel the crowd swell "Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" You'll hear the crowd yell "Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" Hear everyone say: "We love you Zenyatta and good luck today."
ruffianruns, as bad luck would have it, I'd been unable to get a flight outta here in time. Then they just didn't have a flight at all. NONE! I'm in TX. but lived near DMR for most of my life, and hadn't been there since '98. That's like my home to me, and I'm having to wait, and hope maybe I'll get a chance to see her at HOL when/if she races there again before the BC. Hurry up & wait,..... Thanks, lj
@PhatMama469 win or lose I will always love Zenyatta. She brings such excitement to the sport. And if the day comes that she loses I will love her just as much cause I know she gave it her all, every day, every race. I am a Zenyatta fan for life!
As Liza says, good luck today Zenyatta. I am a wreck. Please have a safe trip Zenyatta and Mike and let's hope we see #20 for the greatest racehorse we'll ever see!
@taa1624 : Man O' War's record was 20 for 21 - he lost his fifth race. Zenyatta has the longest undefeated streak in US history (in major competition - a mare named Pepper's Pride won all 19 in New Mexico against all-New Mexico breds) and the second longest of ALL TIME, ALL WORLD. She's currently tied with Eclipse (1700s) and only behind Kincsem in 1870s Europe who won all 54 of her races in a very different time. Zenyatta is having a once-in-a-century career. She's that special.
The paddock is crowded and Zenyatta knows It's all about her, so she points her toes She busts out her best moves and she gets down low Yeah, the big mama knows how to put on a show Zenyatta, she's gonna be last from the gate She'll be last at the half, last at the three-eighths, She's last at the quarter, she's not gonna lose No, she's checkin' with Mike about what gear to use
"Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" The other jocks say, "You think you're alive, she'll just blow you away. And in to the lane, you can look, you won't find her You feel the ground rumble and then you're behind her." She'll hover back there like a big mother hen, Clockin' the speed, measuring them She'll pass half the field in one move and just Smile, switch leads, and mow down the rest.
zenyatta post thur., june 26, 2014 I love this singer, Liza G. Fly, and the great Zenyatta. What a great tribute. There is a video here of Ms. Fly visiting Zenyatta and singing to her. It's great. Ms. Fly gave a wonderful performance of the song either at the last Breeder's Cup of Zenyatta's or her farewell promenade. You just can't help swinging! And the words are great...I love it! It invariably puts a smile on my face and gives me a thrill that people are honoring such a magnificent animal... the splendid creature that is horse can pass all barriers and touch the world! A dark beauty equine Queen rules! Zen-YAT-ta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Zen-YAT-ta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Zen- YAT-ta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ***
My mom is friends with this girl on FB, and she said I (ME, ME and ME) got to make up the lyrics to Rachel Alexandra's song and she would put up a tune, YES!!!

Delrene Sims oh thank you Delrene for letting us know of Liza's death. She was such a lovely person. you could just tell. I'm so very, very sad.
there is nothing but Joy and happiness watching this beautiful, big Mama race. Happy Retirement and Motherhood Queen Zenyatta
I love you Liza and Zenyatta! What a great song! It should have been number one on the radio!
Oh I didnt know Liza died. I wish i could have told her how much her great song meant to me. Liza was the most beautiful and gentle soul...
"Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" You hear the crowd roar
The grandstand is shakin' like never before

To add, Native Dancer won Horse of the Year twice and the Eclipse award. One final note, he always came from behind like Zenyatta. :)
Zenyatta, you are the queen!
Bless your soul beautiful lady
I love the lyric, "you feel the ground rumble and then your behind her". That is SO true lol
This song rocks my socks and makes my life!
Destiny smiled on that Street Cry daughter-ZENYATTA- the greatest race horse we'll ever see!
@PhatMama469 As you can tell by now, Zenyatta's fans have not abandoned her. We all love her just as much as if she had won the BC. She just has the charisma that attracts love and loyalty.
One more week to go. Can't wait!
VERY COOL SONG
Love you Zenny!!
When Zenyatta got geared up -- she was telling the field: "I got a race to win!"
Superb song and video, loved every second of it.
Great song, Liza. You done Zenyatta proud.
Zenyatta's great great (Great) grandfather was Native Dancer, who won I believe 21 or 22 races, lost only one. The Kentucky Derby, he came in second. They called him the Gray Ghost. just fyi for all.

Love the part with "Zenyatta, Zenyatta, hail to the queen, the greatest racehorse that we've ever seen."
Very nice song and good singer
I love this!♥️
1 more day and I am so excited. I hope she gets number 19 but whatever the outcome I want her and the other horses to have a safe race. Yay Zenyatta!
She had a heart as big as Zenny's, glad to have known her from England x
Destiny smiled on that Street Cry daughter
She grew up and became Zenyatta
Everybody watched when she spread her wings
And now she's the Queen of the Sport of Kings!
Zenyatta arrives, you feel the crowd swell
"Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" You'll hear the crowd yell
"Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" Hear everyone say:
"We love you Zenyatta and good luck today."
HERE COMES QUEENIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just look at her.. Is there anything more amazing than that?
@PhatMama469 win or lose I will always love Zenyatta. She brings such excitement to the sport. And if the day comes that she loses I will love her just as much cause I know she gave it her all, every day, every race. I am a Zenyatta fan for life!

Liza, join the angels. We're listening. God bless you
HERE COMES QUEENIE!
Love it Liza! Especially since you blessed with a live version at the Old Place.
All my best,
Tim
@ZenyattaFanantic I whole heartedly agree
@jock4hire That's too bad you won't be able to make it. I would love to be there! I can just imagine what it's like to see Zen in the flesh.
Great horse
The paddock is crowded and Zenyatta knows
It's all about her, so she points her toes
She busts out her best moves and she gets down low
Yeah, the big mama knows how to put on a show
Zenyatta, she's gonna be last from the gate
She'll be last at the half, last at the three-eighths,
She's last at the quarter, she's not gonna lose
No, she's checkin' with Mike about what gear to use
"Zenyatta! Zenyatta!" The other jocks say,
"You think you're alive, she'll just blow you away.
And in to the lane, you can look, you won't find her
You feel the ground rumble and then you're behind her."
She'll hover back there like a big mother hen,
Clockin' the speed, measuring them
She'll pass half the field in one move and just
Smile, switch leads, and mow down the rest.
Like Country or not - when was the last time RACING had a song like that made about it....anything near it...its ALL GOOD for racing

I love this singer, Liza G. Fly, and the great Zenyatta. What a great tribute. There is a video here of Ms. Fly visiting Zenyatta and singing to her. It's great. Ms. Fly gave a wonderful performance of the song either at the last Breeder's Cup of Zenyatta's or her farewell promenade. You just can't help swinging! And the words are great...I love it! It invariably puts a smile on my face and gives me a thrill that people are honoring such a magnificent animal... the splendid creature that is horse can pass all barriers and touch the world! A dark beauty equine Queen rules!

@SoCalgardener yes on itunes. I downloaded it 2 weeks ago.
My mom is friends with this girl on FB, and she said I (ME, ME and ME) got to make up the lyrics to Rachel Alexandra's song and she would put up a tune, YES!!!
