Oh, America I absolutely LOVE this song! I know in another thread someone asked what the lyrics are, I've thought about trying to write them down at the concert but can't because I'm too caught up in the song. If anyone is able to actually get the lyrics during the show I'd be amazed. Last night in Radio City Chloe gave an even longer introduction then usual, which was really cool. Apparently Brendan Graham was in the audience as well.

There were many touching moments related to this song.
Prior to performing this song, Chloe made a beautiful intro on behalf of Celtic Woman. As with so many others at Ellis Island, Chloe thanked America for welcoming Celtic Woman to this country and making it feel like their home away from home.
The song was then beautifully performed with so much emotion.
The result? ...... a standing ovation by everyone in the house, ..... many with a tear in their eyes!
BRAVO Celtic Woman, BRAVO!!!!!

I went back through and changed the name of this thread, that required me to edit every post. The title of a new song is a spoiler and by putting it in the subject of the thread you cause a spoiler to appear on the main forum index every time someone replies.

Make sure and bring kleenex. Maybe they need to sell that at the concerts because it'd go fast.
Seeing the song performed live and hearing Chloe make the introduction is just, well powerful. This is one of those songs that will be great to see on a DVD, but you won't get the full impact unless you see it live.

Every July 4th, there are one or two celebrations that are broadcast nationwide. Celtic Woman should perform "America" at one of these broadcasts. Once such celebration is from Boston with the Boston Pops orchestra & takes place on the Charles River. Fireworks afterwards.
