"America We Stand As One" AKA Funniest. Video. Ever.
http://www.thetalentshow.org/archives/001736.html

If you can sit through the whole thing, you have a stronger constitution than I. Astonishing and utterly pukeworthy.

The link posted above will take you to a site which in turn links to the video. This was my first visit to The Talent Show, and I think I'm already in love.

I swear, you can't even begin to imagine how funny this video is. It's as if every bit of post-9/11 patriotic fervor were thrown into a single three-minute clip. It makes "Let The Eagle Soar" look like a Ward Churchill rant by comparison.


...AND it sucks on all levels. The singing, the music, the video effects, the attempts at emotional manipulation: all failures. THIS. THING. REEKS.

It's the sort of video that Beavis and Butt-Head would stare at in stunned horror before snatching up the remote. It's THAT bad.

1. OK, so when did this dude enlist?
If he was so passionate about Ahh-Merrr-Ihhh-Ka-haaa then I think he should be in uniform.

13. Just what I was gonna say
And he breathes in all the wrong places...he's like a cross between a Bee Gee and Yusef Islam (dating myself). Puke-alicious!

8. Yeah, that blows big time
Saw this a few days back off another link and couldn't believe my eyes and ears. His mulletized misreading of our nation's name is truly sick-making. And his look is straight out of that fucked up Billy Squire video where he pranced and minced with a pink guitar then denied he was gay because it was the wrong demographic or something. Thank god it ended his career. Looks like this clown is just getting started... with a vengeance.

10. I'm not buying it...

This has to be a parody. I can't believe, deep down, that this is genuine.

WHOIS records show the site is registered to "Tiger Stunt Productions". Strangely, Google has nothing on this company.

11. This is for real. Here is an article about the video
'America We Stand as One’ the Music Video
A Labor of Love … Creating a Gift to Share with the World
http://www.tolucantimes.com/columns090104/story1.html


Dennis first sang the song, the words just flowed. He started to cry, his dog, Honey Honey, started to howl, and then his wife, Linda, started to cry. Dennis knew immediately in his heart that he had been the instrument for this special message, and that the words of the song were “words from heaven.”


After reading reviews I figured I should not watch it to preserve my sanity and considering it made his dog howl I think it was the wisest decision :b

16. It could still be an elaborate hoax...
The part about his dog howling is hilarious. Poor "Honey Honey"!
