This gave me chills and it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you young people. What a blessing you gave me and all the people I shared it with. What a lovely gift.
I have four sons and three of them were in choir and even though they are now grown the memories this brings to me are powerful. God Bless every one of these beautiful voices, they are our Future. God Bless you as well Steve Hartman. 🎼🖤
I’m a mom, proud Veteran and this is beautiful! To bad the mainstream media spends most of their time telling people how horrible America is! I have lived in other countries and I can say to those who hate America, spend a year in Europe, Africa, Korea or anywhere abroad, and you will see America even with all our faults has the greatest freedoms and truly is the place millions of people would die to be able to live here, where everyone has the ability to be successful, if they choose to work hard!
@@bronxtimelapse3080 The point was this video has a feeling of patriotism and love for country. Not the woke sad garbage that’s mostly shown. CCN is probably melting inside now. Watch it’s gonna get blasted as racist. Lol that’s the truth.
Thank you for your service and you hit the nail on the head! My daughter was a choir kid and she & several of her friends were Christmas shopping in a Walmart on eve & they broke into Carol Of The Bells, near the Pharmacy & she said the place stood still & everyone loved it!! We only get glimpses of Pure Lovely every here & there.
We have many many faults, we have violence that is so insane, so illogical that it makes you speechless, we have polarization in politics, we have gone far away from the will of God, yet of all the nations in this world, the US is the greatest country on earth. We know it, and we don't strut around in our own praises. But when we ding our athem, when one of ours has fallen in battle(whether the battle was a good or bad war), when we all stand and watch as our flag is risen, when we pay tribute to a MLK or Rosie Parks, we are together. We as a nation look divided, but if you push us the wrong way, the full power of all Americans standing as one will and has always won the day.
LOVE!!!!, some of my most favorite memories were traveling and singing with my college choir back in the 90s! I get it and these kids are AWESOME!!! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
At least those of us who could not be there were able to hear these voices thanks to you Steve Hartman. And it will be available for some time. Don't forget to play it again for Independence day.
I always try to remember to suggest people look up the story behind this song. I’m sure people know some of it but listening to the narrator tells explain with great emotion how our soldiers were imprisoned in the hull of a ship begging Mr. Key whether the flag was still flying high over Ft. McHenry, the fort the British promised to wipe out completely without a care that innocent women and children were living in that fort. It is truly a moving story and it definitely brought tears to my eyes.
I remember what your nation did for us. Not just once, but many, many times. For your countrymen, to sing our National Anthemn at one of your hockey games, a simple mer hockey game, meant the world to me. It meant everything to us.
Tears!! that sound is incredible!! how wonderful you all get to experience the joy of this. As a college student at Louisiana College we once sang in a monestary with the most incredible acoustics. it was overwhelming and hard to sing for the emotion. Can you imagine that this is just a tiny taste of what it will be like to sing before Jesus in heaven!
God bless these young people that they may make our Nation a better place!!! Not divided as it is now, but one again, whole and caring about each other!!! The way the founders intended it to be!!!
I wonder if these "Students" know what the insperation for our national anthum was? that along with them singing it, brings a pariotic feeling of joy swelling in my heart. ~Parlayer~ (US Army 63 -66)
For others it’s about those that died for the freedoms we currently enjoy on a daily basis. It’s about having so much love for your country that you’re willing to die to protect the rights that so many people still don’t have, even if people who don’t care take it for granted.
I totally can understand where the hotel is coming from. At least the guests been warned about the kids making a little bit more noise and having a little bit of fun at the same time. Yet on the other hand that noise actual be in a good way in the form of wonderful music.
Brett!!! Reppin' Murray State!!! Great to see you. I remember well singing the National Anthem at All State when I was in high school. Great memories! 💓
Excellent Job, Bravo. I’ve been in that kind of igniting chorale environment in the Salzburger Dom (cathedral) that was featured in the Sound Of Music. It is difficult to keep the “lag” on tempo with the distance and reverberation.
Well, this is a true tissue time. This is America's tomorrow and hope. Washington listen, and I mean really listen. This is America's young people at their best. Thanks for this.
What a beautiful sound, would have been Great if Hartman had stopped talking until after the singing was complete. An A++ for the kids, and an F for Hartman and CBS.
Francis Scott Key is smiling down on this choir! Great Job everyone! This choir did him proud! When I first heard this, I had tears in my eyes! I hope President Biden and Vice President Harris hear this! I know they both will be very impressed when they see this! Somebody should send this video to The White House!
I thought it started in 1990 during first gulf war. Also, maybe they sang it because back then the National Anthem was one of the qualification songs for All-State... we all knew our parts...
So this big time TV personality thinks this just happens. He never heard of All State go back to learnin some more. All State is a really good experience for the chosen few who get selected to participate. Where I grew up we practiced one whole day and performed live that night 600 hundred kids who have never met before. You practice your part for months before and practice together just that one day, and it is always a great performance it is the best vocal students of any one State. Iowa does and outstanding job with their patriotic songs a good song for students to sing for sure.

This is a yearly tradition in Kentucky Been going on for decades If you can get a room it's one of the most magical things you can witnrss
They harmonize so well together without a single music director. Truly some of the best chorus voices out there.
This gave me chills and it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you young people. What a blessing you gave me and all the people I shared it with. What a lovely gift.
57 years old watching this with tears in my eye's
Absolutely beautiful HARMONY!!!
I have four sons and three of them were in choir and even though they are now grown the memories this brings to me are powerful. God Bless every one of these beautiful voices, they are our Future. God Bless you as well Steve Hartman. 🎼🖤
Beautiful and what makes it more beautiful is the kids singing it with Pride.
Awesome ♥️
Being there in person is so surreal, best experience from choir ever!!
When will it take place again, do you have any idea? I'd love to be there if I could!
The most beautiful heartwarming news story to hit my newsfeed ever. Bravi tutti. What a gorgeous sound.
Beautiful , gave the veteran a happy moment.

Peter… this story is from CBS. Doesn't get anymore mainstream media than that.

Extraordinary - So moving! I've been around for 3/4 of a century and am crying like a baby. Pride in our country AND our youth!
Wow. Beautiful!!! It brought tears to my eyes. God 🙏 bless them all!!!
With the turmoil in the USA and abroad...this brought a ray of hope. Thank you Kentucky, thank you young people
These kids should have sung the National Anthem at the Super Bowl!
They're not celebrities so they can keep wearing their masks.

So proud of these young people. 🙏🏼
I’ve seen videos of this from years ago , always sounds beautiful to me
I’m a veteran and I cry every time I hear this.

Former high school choir girl here,
LOVED THIS!
Still do choir - college and LOVE this.
What's not to get emotional about this! A beautiful song of patriotism that was sung by future generations of leaders! Amen!
I saw this event on a meme page 7 years ago. I knew what this was as soon as I saw the balconies. Things like this make me miss public school days.
I am Canadian and even I found this moving.
❤
I remember what your nation did for us.
Not just once, but many, many times.
For your countrymen, to sing our National Anthemn at one of your hockey games, a simple mer hockey game, meant the world to me.
It meant everything to us.
I am not sure I have ever heard it sung so beautifully. Cheers kiddos
America needs more kids like that.
I am in Kentucky and a lot of Kids are like this here. Great place to live!!!
Best choir i have ever seen!
Tears!! that sound is incredible!! how wonderful you all get to experience the joy of this.

One of my favorite songs. Made me cry! Happily!
Spectacular. Beautiful. Patriotic. Thank you, one and all, for doing this, and for your love of country.

God bless these young people that they may make our Nation a better place!!! Not divided as it is now, but one again, whole and caring about each other!!! The way the founders intended it to be!!!
This is the most US thing i've ever seen
Fabulous! Next time, next year, don't talk all the way through it.
I would love to see-hear an uninterrupted version - I agree with you, Toni! Too much talking. IF ANYONE HAS A COMPLETE VERSION PLEASE POST? THANK YOU.
Norah... what if this annual event can be televised in Time Square or other media in large cities...? Can you imagine the moment it will create...???
Outstanding!!!, and praise our Father God!!!, this just proves there is always hope for our future! Prayers work miracles.
So proud to call Louisville my home for the last 30 years. This is awesome. Great song choice as well🇺🇸

Amen.

AMAZING!!!!
Why aren't these kids singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl?
Needed This!
Beautiful
Can't get the volume up any higher.
SING IT LOUDLY AND PROUDLY!!!
Excellent Job, Bravo.
I’ve been in that kind of igniting chorale environment in the Salzburger Dom (cathedral) that was featured in the Sound Of Music. It is difficult to keep the “lag” on tempo with the distance and reverberation.
The media needs to report this kind of thing more often.
Well, this is a true tissue time. This is America's tomorrow and hope. Washington listen, and I mean really listen. This is America's young people at their best. Thanks for this.
Compliant, brainwashed, obedient, blindly patriotic muzzled sheep. Yep, America's finest
Inspiring and heartwarming.
Beautiful!!!!
They should perform at superbowl
The National Anthem is a technically very difficult song to sing.
America 🇺🇸 God bless America!
I wish i knew when this happens each year...
Beginning of February.
It happens at All State. Kentucky Music Educators Association convention. Usually the first weekend in February.
I was going to ask the same thing! Thanks for answering this original question/comment!
Beautiful!
Steve Hartman should have saved his comments for after the singing of the Anthem..it almost ruined it for me.....(Liverpool,UK)
Goose bumps
Awesome!
Live stream it!!!
How Beautiful !!!
It's Very beautiful ✨✨🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
WOWOWOWOWOW!!
That’s beautiful
This reporters hairdo is given me flashbacks to a crazier decade

What a beautiful sound, would have been Great if Hartman had stopped talking until after the singing was complete. An A++ for the kids, and an F for Hartman and CBS.
Wow!

“No planning or adult direction”…or kneeling. There’s hope for the future after all.
I like it
