Why is Charice singing God Bless America?
“It’s a song that is so steeped in American tradition and sentiment that, one would think, it is a song that only an American should sing. Or a foreigner wanting to become an American.”
Here’s the lyrics:
God Bless America,/ Land that I love. / Stand beside her, and guide her / Thru the night with a light from above. /From the mountains, to the prairies, / To the oceans, white with foam /God bless America, My home sweet home.
Rom from somketalk.com thinks that this is wrong on so many levels. What do you think? (photo by mark sadella)
There is nothing wrong with it IMO. Maybe it is just a song for Charice and much deeper for deeper for the audience. But an Obama staffer did request that song.
